Each post is tied to a named Anganwadi centre, and only women candidates can apply. This is a chance worth your time. You can find more openings like this on our Telangana government jobs page.

Which Category Is Each Vikarabad Anganwadi Seat Reserved For?
The vacancy list reserves every seat for one category at one centre. The split is very different for the two posts.
Anganwadi Teacher, category-wise by project (102 in all):
| ICDS Project | Category-wise Seats | Teacher Seats |
|---|---|---|
| Tandur | OC 3 / EWS 4 / BC-A 1 / BC-B 1 / BC-C 1 / BC-D 2 / BC-E 1 / SC Gr-II 2 / SC Gr-III 2 / ST 5 / VH 1 | 23 |
| Vikarabad | OC 5 / EWS 2 / BC-A 1 / BC-B 1 / SC Gr-I 2 / SC Gr-II 2 / SC Gr-III 1 / ST 3 / VH 1 | 18 |
| Kodangal | OC 0 / EWS 1 / BC-A 1 / SC Gr-I 2 / ST 8 / VH 1 | 13 |
| Pargi | OC 6 / Ex-S/OC 1 / EWS 4 / BC-A 3 / BC-B 2 / BC-C 1 / BC-D 1 / BC-E 1 / SC Gr-III 1 / ST 5 / VH 1 / HH 1 | 27 |
| Marpalle | OC 5 / Ex-S/OC 1 / EWS 3 / BC-A 1 / BC-B 2 / BC-C 1 / BC-D 1 / BC-E 1 / SC Gr-II 3 / SC Gr-III 2 / VH 1 | 21 |
District total for Anganwadi Teacher:
| Category | Teacher Posts |
|---|---|
| OC (Open) | 19 |
| Ex-S/OC | 2 |
| EWS | 14 |
| BC-A | 7 |
| BC-B | 6 |
| BC-C | 3 |
| BC-D | 4 |
| BC-E | 3 |
| SC Group-I | 4 |
| SC Group-II | 7 |
| SC Group-III | 6 |
| ST | 21 |
| VH | 5 |
| HH | 1 |
| All Teacher seats | 102 |
VH, HH and Ex-S/OC are codes printed in the list without expansion; confirm their meaning on the official website.
Anganwadi Helper, by project (162 in all):
| ICDS Project | Reserved For | Helper Posts |
|---|---|---|
| Kodangal | ST | 31 |
| Marpalle | ST | 14 |
| Pargi | ST | 78 |
| Tandur | ST | 28 |
| Vikarabad | ST | 11 |
All 162 Helper seats are reserved for ST, mostly at thanda (tribal habitation) centres. A woman from any other category will find no Helper seat in this list. Also note that Kodangal has no Open (OC) Teacher seat at all. The notification clearly says women must apply only for the reservation allotted to that Anganwadi centre. So first find your centre in the PDF, then check its category, and only then apply.
How do you use the list? Each row names the project, the sector, the Anganwadi centre ID and the centre name, and then says whether that centre has a Teacher vacancy, a Helper vacancy, and the category it is reserved for. Some centres appear twice, once for a Teacher seat and once for a Helper seat; these are two different posts, not a mistake. If your own village’s centre does not appear anywhere in the list, this notification has no vacancy at that centre. Search for your village by name, and note the centre ID before you start the online form.
