DLSA Mahabubnagar Assistant Recruitment 2026: Overview
District Legal Services Authority, Mahabubnagar is recruiting a Junior Assistant and a Typist-cum-Assistant through direct recruitment for its district unit. These roles support the day-to-day office work behind legal-aid services and court-linked administration in Mahabubnagar. Both roles share a degree requirement, but the typist role also needs formal English typewriting proficiency, so you should choose the post that matches your technical certificate.
The recruitment follows the service rules used by the Telangana State Legal Services Authority and the applicable Telangana subordinate-service rules. Your work will involve public records, correspondence and case-support administration in an office where accuracy and timely handling matter. Computer knowledge is needed for both roles, while knowledge of the language or languages used in the district is also a condition of appointment.
Posts and Disciplines
- Junior Assistant: General office and administrative support for the DLSA unit, including computer-based records, correspondence and file movement.
- Typist-cum-Assistant: Office assistance combined with English typing work. A government technical typewriting certificate is part of the post-specific eligibility.
Post-wise Duties
Junior Assistant
You will help the DLSA office maintain case-support and administrative records, prepare routine correspondence, update registers and coordinate files between officers. You should be comfortable using computers for office documents and data entry.
Typist-cum-Assistant
You will type notices, letters and other office material in English while also supporting routine clerical and record work. The role calls for steady typing accuracy and careful handling of documents used in legal-services administration.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- District language: You must have adequate knowledge of the language or languages used in Mahabubnagar district. If the district specifies more than one language, the appointing authority may consider knowledge of one according to local need.
- Health and character: Appointment is subject to sound health, suitable character and antecedents, and Indian citizenship.
- Pension: The appointment is covered by the Contributory Pension Scheme.
- Shortlisting: Applications are scrutinised before the exam, and only properly completed forms move forward. The authority will publish recruitment updates on the District Court website rather than send every update personally.
- Travel expenses: No TA or DA is paid for the examination, certificate verification or viva voce.
- Authority's discretion: The Chairman may increase or reduce the posts or cancel the notification. False claims, canvassing or disqualifying service or criminal history can end your candidature.
