Jal Shakti Division Reckong Peo Para Pump Operator, Para Fitter & Multi Purpose Worker Vacancy 2026: Eligibility, Honorarium & Last Date
The Jal Shakti Division, Reckong Peo in Kinnaur district has invited applications for 20 part-time posts: 4 Para Pump Operator, 1 Para Fitter and 15 Multi Purpose Worker. These are hourly, honorarium-based jobs to run water supply and irrigation schemes, so they suit local candidates with a 10th pass plus ITI or an 8th pass certificate who want work close to home in Himachal Pradesh.
This is an offline recruitment. Your form must reach the Executive Engineer’s office by 9 November 2026, 5:00 PM, so posting it on the last day is a risk. Read this guide from top to bottom and check the seat row for your own category, because the notice rejects incomplete forms without giving any reason. GovtJobsAlert.in has pulled out every condition that matters.

HP Jal Shakti Kinnaur Vacancy Details 2026
The seats are split differently for each post, so check the row for your own post and category.
| Post | Category-wise Vacancies | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Para Pump Operator | UR 3 / SC 1 / ST 0 / OBC 0 / EWS 0 | 4 |
| Para Fitter | UR 1 / SC 0 / ST 0 / OBC 0 / EWS 0 | 1 |
| Multi Purpose Worker | UR 8 / SC 2 / ST 1 / OBC 2 / EWS 2 | 15 |
Para Fitter has a single seat and it is Unreserved. SC, ST, OBC and EWS candidates have no reserved seat there. The notice also says the number of posts may be increased or decreased at any time.
Eligibility Criteria for HP Jal Shakti Vibhag Kinnaur 2026
| Post | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Para Pump Operator | Matriculation (10th) with ITI in Electrician, Wireman, Diesel Mechanic, Pump Mechanic, Motor Mechanic, Pump Operator-cum-Mechanic, Mechanic (Motor Vehicle) or Pump Operation & Maintenance, from a recognised ITI |
| Para Fitter | Matriculation (10th) with ITI in Fitter or Plumber from a recognised ITI or institute |
| Multi Purpose Worker | Middle (8th) pass or its equivalent from a school recognised by the State Government |
For both ITI posts there is a second route: a Matriculation certificate in the same trades under the Government’s Skill Development Scheme also counts. If you trained under that scheme rather than at an ITI, you can still apply. Experience is not compulsory, but it earns marks, so if you have worked on a water supply scheme, get the certificate from the Executive Engineer’s office early. Candidates from SC, ST, OBC and EWS categories should attach a category certificate signed by the competent authority.
Every applicant must also hold a Bonafide Himachali Certificate and a character certificate issued by a 1st Class Magistrate. Without them your form is incomplete, and incomplete forms are rejected. For the Multi Purpose Worker post, merit is counted on 8th class marks only, not on any higher qualification you hold. Check your trade against the ITI jobs list before you apply.
Age Limit
| Category | Age |
|---|---|
| Minimum age | 18 years |

The notice does not grant any age relaxation to any category, so 45 years is the ceiling for everyone. Work out your exact age on 9 November 2026, not on the day you post the form.
Salary (Honorarium) for Para Pump Operator, Para Fitter and Multi Purpose Worker
| Post | Honorarium per Month |
|---|---|
| Para Pump Operator | Rs 7,100 |
| Para Fitter | Rs 7,100 |
| Multi Purpose Worker | Rs 6,000 |
These are fixed honorariums for 6 hours of work a day, not a government pay scale. The notice gives no pay level for these posts. Think of the job as local work that pays a fixed monthly amount, and decide if 6 hours a day on a scheme in Reckong Peo, Sangla or Nichar fits your life before you apply. The notice says the posts are purely part-time and hourly.
Selection Process for HP Jal Shakti Kinnaur Recruitment 2026
Selection is on a 10-mark merit system. An initial merit list is drawn from your qualification and experience. The top candidates, at least 5 times the number of vacancies, are then called for the skill and physical test, and each of them gets a separate call letter.
| Component | Pump Operator / Fitter | Multi Purpose Worker |
|---|---|---|
| Matric / 8th marks or grades | 5 | 6 |
| BPL family certificate | 1 | Not applicable |
| Experience (half a mark per six months) | 2 | 2 |
| Skill and physical test | 2 | 2 |
| Full marks | 10 | 10 |
Marks are easy to lose here: the Matriculation (or 8th) marks carry the biggest share, so attach the detailed marks sheet that shows your marks, not just a pass certificate. For the Multi Purpose Worker post the 8th marks sheet is compulsory, and if the Board has not issued detailed marks, the notice asks for a detailed marks certificate from the school Principal.
If applications are far more than the posts, the office may shortlist before drawing the merit list. Experience must be in related work with IPH, HPPWD, CPWD, PSUs or an outsourcing agency serving the Jal Shakti Vibhag, and the certificate must be issued by the Executive Engineer (Jal Shakti Vibhag).
| Test | What is checked |
|---|---|
| Para Pump Operator skill test | Minor pump repair, fault finding in pump, motor and electric system, pump installation and alignment, lubrication and cooling, operating regulating valves |
| Para Fitter skill test | Repairing pipelines and stopping leaks, pipe fitting and thread cutting, village water distribution in hilly terrain, handling complaints |
| Physical test | Able to carry tools and pipes in hilly areas, with no physical disability and no colour blindness |
You will not get any TA/DA for attending the skill or physical test. Candidates called to the test will be called separately, and original certificates are checked at evaluation. The listed tests are hands-on trade tasks, so spend the weeks before the call letter revising your trade work: pump alignment and fault finding if you are a Pump Operator, pipe fitting and thread cutting if you are a Fitter.
