MPPSC Law Officer Recruitment 2026

MPPSC Law Officer Recruitment 2026: Overview

Madhya Pradesh Public Service Commission (MPPSC) is recruiting Law Officers for the state government's Jail Department through a regular appointment process. The notice places the post in the Class II gazetted service, with legal work linked to prisons and court proceedings. This is a departmental appointment: MPPSC manages recruitment, while the concerned government department handles appointment after the final recommendation.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Probation: You will begin with a two-year probation period. Selection therefore leads to an initial period of service under the department's probation conditions.
• State reservation: The reserved-category and horizontal-reservation benefits described in this notice apply to Madhya Pradesh domicile holders. If you belong to another state, the commission considers you against the unreserved posts.
• Women's reservation: If a suitable woman is unavailable for a post reserved for women, that place may be filled by a man from the same category. The notice treats this as a category-specific adjustment.
• Employment registration: Madhya Pradesh residents can apply before obtaining an active employment-exchange registration, but must meet the notice's later registration condition. Applicants from other states are exempt from this requirement.
• Employed applicants: Madhya Pradesh residents already in government or private employment can claim the stated employment-registration exemption through employer confirmation. The applicable proof differs between government and private employment.
• Vacancy changes: The government may revise the number of posts. An increase can be made before the result, while a reduction may occur at any stage of recruitment.
• Exam centre: The notice names Indore for the examination, but an Indore centre is not guaranteed. Administrative needs can change centre arrangements, and requests to change your preferred exam city are not accepted.
• Answer-key disputes: If the Hindi and English versions of a question differ, the Hindi version takes priority. The commission does not accept further objections after the final answer key.
• Result corrections: There is no revaluation or recounting process. MPPSC can still correct a computer or clerical error found after publishing the result.
• Appointment correspondence: Once MPPSC sends the selection and waiting lists to the department, appointment-related matters belong with that department. Being named in a recruitment list does not replace its appointment process.
• Official updates: Recruitment changes and results appear on the commission's website. Keep your registered contact details current, as the commission may also use email or SMS when needed.

• Provide legal assistance to people held in prisons.
• Prepare replies to petitions filed in courts.
• Act on court orders within the required time.
• Handle follow-up action on court judgments.
• Carry out the Jail Department's court-related legal work.
