RailTel Corporation of India Ltd (RCIL) has invited applications on deputation for 1 post of Joint General Manager or Senior Deputy General Manager (E6/E5) for its Northern Region. The position is tied to the KAVACH project on West Central Railway and involves project coordination, monitoring and liaison with the Railways. Eligible candidates are IRSSE and Gazetted S&T officers. Minimum age is 58 years for SAG-level officers and 56 for those below SAG on the closing date. Applications with full enclosures including APARs and vigilance clearance must be sent through the proper channel to the RCIL Corporate Office in New Delhi within 30 days from the date of notification, or about 21 November 2026.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

The RailTel management has published a recruitment notice with several critical blanks. The official notification does not list the minimum educational qualification, the application fee or the selection process for the single vacancy. Candidates from IRSSE and Gazetted S&T services must work out their own eligibility from the age and grade conditions. The job is tied specifically to the KAVACH project on West Central Railway, so the appointee will handle coordination between RailTel and the Railways. The closing date is fixed at 30 days from 22 October 2026, which puts the deadline near 21 November 2026.
