# Supreme Court opens 130 junior court attendant posts 2026-10-17T13:03:13+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Supreme Court of India has announced 130 vacancies for the post of junior court attendant, a Group C non-clerical role. Candidates who have passed Class 10 from a recognised board and are aged between 18 and 27 years as of 1 October 2026 can apply online from 4 November to 25 November 2026 at sci.gov.in. General and unreserved category applicants must pay a fee of Rs 1,500, while SC, ST, OBC and ex-servicemen candidates pay Rs 750. Selection will be based on a 100-mark written test covering general intelligence, reasoning, numerical ability, general English and general awareness, followed by a 25-mark interview. Candidates must score at least 50 percent in the written exam and at least 13 out of 25 in the interview to qualify. Selected candidates will receive a monthly salary of Rs 21,700 to Rs 69,100 under pay level 3, with the initial basic pay set at Rs 21,700, plus applicable allowances. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Over 21,700 rupees starting pay without requiring anything beyond a Class 10 pass clears a path into the Supreme Court's own Group C staff. The 1,500 rupee application fee for general candidates is low enough to attract a wide field, meaning the 50 percent cut-off in the written exam and the 13-out-of-25 interview threshold will do the actual screening. Applications close 25 November. ## Coverage - tv9hindi.com straight government job listing, no political slant This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
