Why this is important / Things to check
The honorarium amounts show these are contract or direct recruitment into hourly/part-time/special arrangement posts, not regular permanent posts.
Because of the relatively low honorarium for helpers, the jobs are likely tied to the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) scheme and specific to the union territory of Chandigarh — so local residency may be a strict requirement.
The application window is short (last date 6 Nov). Make sure form is complete and submitted before deadline.
Always read the official notification for exact eligibility (some posts might have slightly different conditions).
