Haryana Kaushal Rozgar Nigam Limited (HKRN) Assistant Lineman (HVPNL) Recruitment 2026

Haryana Kaushal Rozgar Nigam Limited (HKRN) has opened applications for Assistant Lineman (HVPNL) posts to work with Haryana Vidyut Prasaran Nigam Limited (HVPNL), the state's power transmission utility, under HKRN's Technical Associates deployment scheme. Selected candidates will be posted across 17 districts of Haryana including Ambala, Faridabad, Fatehabad, Gurugram, Hansi, Hisar, Jind, Kaithal, Karnal, Nuh, Palwal, Panchkula, Panipat, Rewari, Rohtak, Sirsa and Sonipat. HKRN was set up by the Haryana government to place contractual workers with various government departments, boards and corporations through a computerised, transparent process on its Vacant Jobs portal, and this recruitment continues that mission for the state's power sector. As of this notification, no vacancies are currently open under HKRN's Specialised Category (salary above Rs. 30,000 per month) or with Private Companies, so this Technical Associates posting is the main active opportunity on the portal right now. Only candidates with Haryana domicile can apply for this post, and it is a good opportunity for ITI-qualified electricians and diploma/degree holders in Electrical Engineering who are looking for a stable, government-linked technical job.

Who Can Apply?

• Qualification: Matric with a 2-year ITI course in Electrician/Electronics/Wireman trade or Lineman & Electrician (Maintenance & Repair of Electrical and Domestic Appliances) from a Vocational Educational Institute (VEI), with minimum 60% marks for General/Other category candidates or 55% marks for SC category candidates of Haryana domicile
• Alternate Qualification: A Full-Time Diploma or Degree in Electrical Engineering / Electrical & Electronics Engineering with the same minimum marks, applicable if your ITI marks are below the cutoff for your category
• Domicile: You must hold a valid Haryana domicile — candidates from outside the state are not eligible for this post
• Language: You must have passed Hindi or Sanskrit up to Matric standard or higher education
• Computer Test: If selected, you must clear the State Eligibility Test in Computer Appreciation and Application (SETC), conducted by HARTRON or an authorised agency like NIELIT, within your 2-year probation period after joining. This is a post-joining requirement, not a condition for applying

The role of Assistant Lineman involves hands-on electrical maintenance and repair work on HVPNL's transmission network, so practical familiarity with electrical wiring, appliance repair, and line maintenance from your ITI training will be directly useful on the job.

Age Limit

• You should be between 18 and 42 years old to apply for this post.

Salary

• Selected candidates will get wages as per HKRN Nigam norms — the exact monthly figure is not specified in the notification, since this falls under the standard (non-specialised) wage category.
• HKRN separately advertises specialised category posts that pay above Rs. 30,000 per month whenever such vacancies open up, but none are currently listed alongside this recruitment.
• You will be paid through HKRN's centralised, computerised wage disbursal system rather than directly by HVPNL.

Selection Process (No Written Exam)

The notification does not mention any written examination for this post. Based on the eligibility criteria listed, selection is expected to follow these steps:

1. Eligibility Screening: Your online application is checked against the qualification, domicile, and age criteria.
2. Shortlisting: You are shortlisted based on HKRN's scoring and merit criteria for the Assistant Lineman post.
3. Document Verification: You will need to produce original certificates for your ITI/Diploma qualification, Haryana domicile, category, and identity proof.
