DPO Gorakhpur AWW Recruitment 2026 — 326 Vacancies

DPO Gorakhpur Anganwadi Worker Recruitment 2026: Overview

The Office of the District Programme Officer (DPO), Gorakhpur is recruiting Anganwadi Workers for child development projects serving urban and rural communities in the district. These are honorarium-based contractual engagements under Uttar Pradesh’s Child Development Services and Nutrition department. The notice covers local Anganwadi centres across several project areas, so the centre and village or ward attached to a post matter when you consider applying.

The district notice gives a project-level picture of the recruitment, while the department portal carries the finer village and ward details. You should read these together: the district announcement explains the common conditions, and the local entry identifies the centre involved. This is a district recruitment with posts spread across child development projects, including rural blocks and Gorakhpur city.

The recruitment follows the state government’s prescribed Anganwadi engagement framework. Your application is handled through the departmental portal, and the notice repeatedly stresses that the information entered there must match your records. That makes careful entry of your personal and certificate details a central part of the process.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Local connection: The notice ties each post to its village area or urban ward. Check the locality attached to the centre before choosing a vacancy, because the district-wide announcement does not make every centre interchangeable.
• Fallback within the panchayat: If no suitable applicant from any category is available in the village area, the notice allows category-wise consideration from the associated nyaya panchayat. This is a conditional local provision in the recruitment rules.
• Reservation details: The portal provides the reservation position for individual villages and wards. Use that local information alongside the project table to understand the post you are considering.
• Public notice boards: Local vacancy and reservation details will also be displayed at child development project offices and other listed district offices. These include block, tehsil and district programme offices, as well as the specified health and district administration offices.
• Changing availability: The department may increase or decrease the vacancies. Any change will appear on the website, so the published local position may be updated during the recruitment.
• Accuracy of your record: Incorrect details or a mismatch in facts, marks or educational records can lead to cancellation. The notice places responsibility for the entries on the applicant, including certificate numbers and related details used for online checking.
• Portal-based handling: The district says the recruitment is conducted through the departmental online system. It also cautions applicants about intermediaries and people making misleading promises, so use the official process described in the notice.
