The Ex-Servicemen Contributary Health Scheme (ECHS) at Binnaguri Cantt has invited offline applications for three contractual posts at its polyclinic in Cooch Behar. The vacancies are Officer-in-Charge, Nursing Assistant, and DEO/Clerk, each carrying a fixed remuneration of Rs 95,000, Rs 36,500, and Rs 29,200 respectively. Each post requires five years of experience and a graduate or diploma qualification. Preference will be given to ex-servicemen. The engagement is for one year, renewable subject to conditions. Applications in duplicate with self-attested copies of testimonials must reach OIC, Stn HQ (ECHS Cell), Binnaguri by 30 November 2026. The official notification does not specify the maximum age limit or whether the remuneration is monthly. Candidates can obtain the format from www.echs.gov.in.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Three contractual posts at a single polyclinic mean that fewer than half a dozen candidates will be affected by this round of hiring. The notice leaves key terms unresolved: remuneration is described as fixed but is not stated as monthly or annual, and the maximum age limit for renewal is absent. Candidates who do not meet the exact five-year experience requirement are excluded, limiting the already small applicant pool. The selection process stops at an interview stage in the notice, with no further steps or a date for results. The official ECHS website is the only source for the missing conditions, and the offline application deadline of 30 November 2026 is less than a month away.
