Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not post the form to the Aayog yourself. The notice says it must be forwarded through your Head of Department or Cadre Controlling Authority.
- 31.10.2026 is the day the form must reach Hamirpur, not the day it is posted, so ask your office to send it early.
- Apply only if you hold a similar post in your own department. The notice asks for applications from officials working against analogous posts.
- Check that page 2 is complete before you hand the form over, including the five years of ratings and the office seal.
- Do not leave the mobile number or email ID blank. Both are on the form.
