The single vacancy offers a remuneration of Rs. 60,000 and requires an LLB degree. Candidates must have more than five and up to seven years of legal experience in a government, PSU, semi-government, autonomous, statutory, or recognised institution, or five years as a legal practitioner, or be a retired judicial officer. The age limit is 65 years. Applications must be sent by email or post to the Chief Administrative Officer, PPQS, Faridabad by 9 November 2026. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The Directorate is offering a short-term contractual legal role at a fixed fee, targeting retired officers or experienced practitioners rather than early-career lawyers. The upper age limit of 65 allows retired judicial officers to apply, expanding the pool. The five- to seven-year experience bracket is narrow, suggesting the role requires maturity but not long tenure. The deadline is nine days away, so candidates must act quickly. ## Coverage - verdictum.in Straight notification listing with no framing or commentary This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
