PAU Ground Helper Recruitment 2026: Overview
Punjab Agricultural University (PAU) has re-advertised its Ground Helper opening through the Director Students' Welfare in Ludhiana. The contractual engagement comes under the Amalgamated Fund scheme and relates to the university's playgrounds. If you applied in the earlier round, the notice specifically says that your previous application will still be considered.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Initial engagement: The first appointment lasts six months. The position is temporary, and the notice says the university can end the engagement without notice.
- Leaving the post: The notice also sets a separate notice-or-payment condition if you choose to leave. You must give one month's notice, deposit one month's salary, or pay for the part of the notice period that falls short of a month. The clause states that this arrangement applies vice versa as well.
- Reservation: The university will follow Punjab Government policy for reservation in this recruitment. The announcement does not provide a category-wise division of the opening.
- Local preference: The university will give preference to a local applicant. This is described as a preference in the notice.
- Travel expenses: PAU will not pay travel or daily allowance for attending the practical test. You will need to meet those costs yourself.
Application Submission Notes
Address your application to the Director Students' Welfare, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, the issuing office named in the notice. Make the bank draft payable to Comptroller, PAU, Ludhiana, and include your complete address and mobile number so the university can contact you.
Corrigenda and Notices
- Re-advertisement dated 19 September 2026: If you already applied under memo DSW/A-1/2026/407-507 dated 14 January 2026, you do not need to apply again. PAU will consider your earlier application for this round.
