The UKPSC Lecturer/Government Polytechnic and Assistant Research Officer (ARO), P.W.D. (Group B) Exam-2024 application is closed. Although the original report gave 12 August 2024 as the deadline, a later report said the window would close on 20 February 2025. The “apply now” headline is therefore not current as of 8 October 2026.
Is the UKPSC Lecturer/ARO application still open?
No. The later reported closing date for this Exam-2024 recruitment was 20 February 2025. The original Scroll report, published 12 August 2024, identified that day as the deadline; its follow-up, published 20 February 2025, gave the later closing date. Both dates are historical, not an invitation to apply now. Scroll.in
The UKPSC recruitment portal listing checked on 8 October 2026 shows later recruitment activity, including Lecturer cadre examination updates, rather than an open application for this 2024 cycle. For current opportunities, check the official UKPSC recruitment portal and confirm the advertisement number and dates on the specific notice.
What does the 526-post figure count?
Scroll’s February 2025 report described the drive as aiming to fill 526 Lecturer posts. It also referred to Assistant Research Officer posts, but the report does not establish that 526 is a combined Lecturer-and-ARO total. Treat the figure as the reported Lecturer count unless the detailed recruitment advertisement confirms a combined figure. Scroll.in

What details should candidates verify in the original notice?
The reports cited here do not establish the post-wise vacancy split, eligibility qualifications, age limits, category-wise fees, selection stages or examination timetable. Those details should be taken from the original detailed advertisement, not inferred from a headline or from a different recruitment cycle. In particular, the UKPSC portal lists later Lecturer recruitment activity; its terms should not be assumed to apply to the 2024 notice.
