UIDAI Section Officer RO Bengaluru Recruitment 2026

UIDAI Section Officer Recruitment 2026: Overview

The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), the body set up under the Aadhaar Act, 2016 to issue Aadhaar numbers and run Aadhaar authentication, needs a Section Officer for its Regional Office in Bengaluru. The circular comes from the Human Resource Division at UIDAI Head Office, New Delhi.

This is a deputation opening on Foreign Service terms, not direct recruitment. It is meant for officers already in regular government or public-sector service who want to move to UIDAI for a deputation tenure. If you work in a Central ministry, a State Government, a PSU or an autonomous body at a matching grade, this is the route in.

UIDAI runs several similar calls at once, so check the VC Id 19948 and the Regional Office, Bengaluru location before you apply. A separate Section Officer opening for the Technology Centre, Bengaluru follows its own circular and closing date.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Deputation only: Only serving officers can apply; the post is filled on deputation on Foreign Service terms.
• Who counts as eligible: Central Government officers holding an analogous post on a regular basis in their parent cadre, or with the required years of regular service in the feeder pay levels; officers of State Governments, PSUs and autonomous bodies need a regular post in a corresponding grade with matching experience.
• Remaining service: You must have at least 3 years of service left before superannuation in your current organisation, counted on the last date of application.
• Cut-off date: Every eligibility condition, including age, is judged on the last date of application.
• Language versions: The circular is published in English and Hindi; if the two differ, the English version is treated as final.
