# WCD Korba invites offline applications for 2 contractual posts 2026-10-23T09:47:14+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The District Program Officer, Women and Child Development, Korba (Chhattisgarh) has issued a recruitment notice for two contractual posts at the Government Children Observation Home under the Mission Vatsalya scheme. One Paramedical Staff and one Assistant cum Night Watchman are sought. The pay is Rs 11,916 and Rs 7,944 per month respectively. Applicants must hold an ANM or MPW nursing certificate for the paramedical role and a Class 5 pass for the watchman role, with at least two years of relevant work experience. The age limit is 21 to 35 years as on 1 January 2026, with a maximum of 45 years after relaxations. Both posts are unreserved. Completed application forms with self-attested documents must be sent by registered or speed post to the Office of the District Program Officer, Women and Child Development Department, Korba, Chhattisgarh, by 7 November 2026. Hand-delivered forms will not be accepted. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The two vacancies are at the Government Children Observation Home, a facility already running under the Mission Vatsalya scheme. Filling these posts, paramedical staff and night watchman, keeps the home compliant with its staffing norms for children in state care. The contractual nature of the roles means the district avoids a recurring salary liability. The department has set a tight 15-day window from notification (23 October) to the application deadline (7 November), suggesting it expects few qualified candidates in Korba's rural labour market. The written exam and skill test that follow will determine whether the pool of applicants meets the two-year experience requirement for each post. ## Coverage - freejobalert.com Straight vacancy listing with no editorial framing This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
