In a significant development for job aspirants in Jammu and Kashmir, the Agriculture Department is preparing to advertise 304 Agriculture Extension Assistant posts through the Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board (JKSSB). This move aims to strengthen the workforce of the Agriculture Department and bolster the region’s agricultural sector, which is a cornerstone of the local economy.
Sources from the Associated News Bureau revealed that the upcoming vacancies will encompass multiple roles in the department, designed to accommodate candidates with diverse qualifications and skills. While the official notification is yet to be released, it is expected to outline details such as eligibility criteria, educational qualifications, and the application process.
The said advertisement is for the posts of Agriculture Extension Assistant. These posts were originally advertised in 2020 by JKSSB but were withdrawn following interference by MP Jitendra Singh. Now, the NC government has undertaken the task of re-advertising these vacancies to provide opportunities for B.Sc. Agriculture graduates in Jammu and Kashmir.
This recruitment drive is expected to generate excitement among job seekers, particularly those aspiring to secure government positions in the agriculture sector. It also reflects the government’s commitment to reinforcing agriculture, a vital contributor to Jammu and Kashmir’s economic stability.
