| Component | Amount |
|---|---|
| Pay Scale | ₹3,500 – ₹10,000 |
| Grade Pay | ₹1,100 |
| Allowance | Dearness Allowance as sanctioned by the Government |
Selected secretaries will first be on probation for two years, which can be extended up to five years. Probation can be ended on the recommendation of the CEO, Janpad Panchayat if your work and conduct are found suitable. If the work is not satisfactory, the appointing authority can terminate the services.

What Is the Selection Process for Kondagaon Gram Panchayat Sachiv 2026?
The merit is decided on the basis of your certificates and a Computer Skill Test, with these weightages:
| Component | Weightage |
|---|---|
| Higher Secondary (12th) marks | 50 percent |
| Higher education | Maximum 10 marks (Graduation 5, Post-Graduation 5) |
| Computer Skill Test marks | 25 percent |
| Experience as Rozgar Sahayak | Maximum 15 marks (3 marks per year, up to 5 years; one year = minimum 9 months of work) |
On the basis of merit, 10 candidates per post will be called for the Computer Skill Test. If two candidates have equal marks, the older candidate gets preference.
In simple words, your 12th marks carry the biggest weight, and the skill test comes only after the first shortlist. If you have worked as a Rozgar Sahayak, those extra marks can lift you well above other applicants, so do not forget that certificate. The date of the skill test has not been announced yet; keep an eye on our results section for later updates.
The extra marks for a degree or Rozgar Sahayak experience are given only if you attach the documents. For Rozgar Sahayak experience, only a certificate-cum-NOC from the CEO, Janpad Panchayat with a dispatch (jawak) number is accepted, along with your appointment letter.
