The India Meteorological Department will recruit Scientific Assistants through the Staff Selection Commission Junior Engineer examination. Applications opened on September 2 and will close on September 22, 2026, on ssc.gov.in. The fee deadline is September 23, and the correction window runs from September 28 to 30.
The selection process has two objective-type papers with negative marking: 0.25 marks deducted per wrong answer in Paper I and one mark per wrong answer in Paper II. The application fee is Rs 100, waived for women, SC, ST, PwBD and ex-servicemen candidates. Correction charges are Rs 200 for the first change and Rs 500 for the second.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All three sources report identical procedural details from the official SSC notice, without any editorial framing or independent verification. The coverage is uniform straight reporting: each outlet leads with the job opening and repeats the same dates, fees and exam structure. Hindustan Times adds a reference to the UPSC ESE 2027 notification, which is tangentially related but not part of the IMD story. The absence of any critical or pro-government slant suggests the story was treated as a routine public-service announcement. The key number to watch is the September 22 deadline, after which the number of applicants will indicate demand for government scientific roles.
