The recruitment drive aims to fill six MTS vacancies under the Headquarters Maintenance Command. Interested candidates must have passed Class 10 (Matriculation) from a recognised board. Applicants should be between 18 and 25 years of age as of July 27, 2026, while age relaxation will be available for reserved categories in accordance with Government of India rules.
One of the key highlights of the recruitment process is that no application fee has been prescribed for candidates from any category.
Selection Based on Written Examination
