RGIPT JRA Biochar Recruitment 2026

RGIPT JRA Biochar Recruitment 2026: Overview

Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology (RGIPT) is recruiting a Junior Research Assistant (JRA) for a CST-UP-sponsored project in its Department of Energy & Human Sciences at Jais, Amethi. The research concerns biochar-enriched vermicompost made from nitrogen- and calcium-rich organic waste. It focuses on adjusting the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio for nutrient recovery and soil reclamation, with the project sanctioned for two years.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Project context: This appointment belongs to the sponsored research project at RGIPT. The project title identifies both waste-derived vermicompost and soil reclamation as its focus.
• Residence restriction: You must be an Indian citizen and a resident of Uttar Pradesh. This is an explicit condition of this recruitment, rather than a preference based on where you studied.
• Application completeness: The institute may decline incomplete applications, late applications or applications missing supporting records. Your application must meet the notice's submission requirements.
• Accuracy of information: The application declaration states that incorrect information or ineligibility discovered at any stage can lead to cancellation of your candidature or appointment.
• Interview travel: You will not receive travel or daily allowance if called for the interview.

Application Submission Notes

Send your application as one PDF attachment to pksrivastava@rgipt.ac.in. Use the subject Application for Junior Research Assistant – CST-UP Project; the notice includes its application form as Annexure-1.

Cutoff-time discrepancy: the main notice and the research-positions page say 11:00 PM, while Annexure-1 says 6:00 PM for the same closing day. Ask the project contact to clarify, or send your application before the earlier time to avoid depending on the later cutoff.
