Guhagar Kotwal Recruitment 2026: Overview

Tehsil Office Guhagar, Ratnagiri District is recruiting Mahsul Sevak, also called Kotwal, for vacant revenue circles within Guhagar taluka. The notice follows the local reservation allocation process and places appointments under Maharashtra's revenue administration. A key distinction is that this is an unclassified, temporary appointment with conditions different from a regular government pay-scale post.

Service Conditions and Caveats

  • Appointment status: The Kotwal post does not fall within the usual Group A to Group D classification. The notice describes appointments as temporary and applies the service conditions issued by the state government for this category of work.
  • Service benefits: Regular salary and retirement benefits attached to standard government posts do not apply. The notice instead provides for the honorarium and concessions approved by the government from time to time.
  • Place of residence after appointment: Once appointed, you must live within the revenue circle assigned to you. You will need to give an undertaking confirming that residence requirement.
  • Full-time commitment: Kotwal service is full-time. You must not carry on work or a business that prevents you from performing the duties or conflicts with them.
  • Conduct: Political-party or political-organisation membership is not permitted. Attempts to influence recruitment through political or other pressure can disqualify you, and the notice prohibits attaching political recommendations to the application.
  • Joining and undertaking: Selected applicants must join within 15 days of the appointment order. You must also provide the personal security bond required under the financial rules cited in the notice when taking charge.
  • Recruitment authority: The selection committee can change the number of posts, reservation arrangements or recruitment schedule, or suspend the process. Its decisions on the recruitment are final under the notice.
  • Official updates: Check the Tehsil Office Guhagar notice board for changes and instructions. The notice also identifies the Sub-Divisional Officer's office at Chiplun as a place where the answer key and results will be displayed.
  • Reservation administration: The notice applies social, economic and women's reservation to this drive. Other special reservation concessions listed in the notice do not extend to this unclassified post.
