The District Magistrate-cum-Deputy Commissioner Office, Dumka (Welfare Branch) has released Advertisement No. 1062, dated 3 July 2026, for 83 part-time, period-based teacher posts across 15 Scheduled Tribe and Backward Class residential schools spread over blocks like Shikaripada, Dumka, Kathikund, Gopikandar, Ramgarh, Masliya, and Jarmundi.
