MZN Court Counsellor Recruitment 2026: Overview
Muzaffarnagar District Court (MZN Court) has issued a notice for a Counsellor attached to the Family Court in Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh. The court will forward applications to the state government following instructions from the Allahabad High Court. This is a contractual court attachment under the state government order cited in the notice.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Nature of appointment: You will be attached to the court on a contract. The notice explicitly says that this appointment does not count as entry into government service. Keep this distinction in mind when considering the role.
- Tenure: The appointment runs for three years. This is the term stated for the counsellor position, rather than an open-ended appointment to the court establishment.
- Local residence: The court seeks a resident of Muzaffarnagar district. Applicants from other districts may be considered if no suitable local applicant is available. The notice makes this a conditional alternative.
- Accurate declarations: The application includes a declaration that your information is true and that you have not hidden relevant facts. False information or withheld facts can lead to cancellation of your candidature or termination after appointment.
Application Submission Notes
Use the application format attached to the notice and address your application to the Office of the Principal Judge, Family Court, Muzaffarnagar. You can send it by registered post or deliver it personally to the office.
The form asks for your correspondence address and mobile number, as well as a declaration about pending criminal cases or convictions. Complete these entries carefully so that the court receives your contact details and the disclosures requested in its own format.
