When Will the UP Lekhpal Notification Come?

Before a notification is released, several departmental steps must be completed. The department first prepares the details of vacant posts. The requisition is then sent to the concerned selection commission or recruitment agency, which prepares the advertisement with the number of posts, educational qualification, age limit, application fee, reservation and selection process. As the RTI reply says action to send the requisition is still under way, no fixed date for the notification or online application can be given at this stage.

Will the PET Score Be Mandatory?

Candidates should check the official notification for final details on qualification, age limit and age relaxation.

What Will Be the Selection Process?

The final selection process will be clear only after the official notification. Candidates may be selected on the basis of the PET score, a written exam and other stages. In the previous recruitment, shortlisting for the written exam was followed by document verification and a final merit list.
