Key Tips for You
Download the official PDF notification from the court website and read job description, location, duties, honorarium, tenure carefully.
Make sure your name, signature, address, date of birth on certificates match exactly with application form to avoid rejection.
Use Registered Post / Speed Post (or as specified) to submit your application and retain the proof/tracking number.
Write “Application for Para Legal Volunteers – DLSA Villupuram” (or whatever the post name is) clearly on the cover envelope.
Ensure you have recent passport-size photograph, ID proof (Aadhaar), educational certificate, caste certificate (if applicable) ready.
Since it may be first-come / short-listing basis, do not delay submission.

Keep a copy of your submitted application and tracking receipt.
Check the court website around/after the last date for the list of shortlisted candidates and interview schedule.
