Sangwari Guruji Vacancy 2026 – Block-wise and Post-wise Details

The 93 posts are spread over four development blocks of Balod district. As per the notification, the schools are in mining-affected areas of the district. Dondi block alone accounts for nearly half the vacancies.

Here is how the same 93 posts split by designation:

Posts are advertised subject-wise and school-wise. Hindi, Sanskrit, English, Biology, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Commerce, Political Science/History, Geography/Economics and Social Studies are among the subjects covered for Lecturer posts. Check the school-wise table in the official notification before you pick a school and subject.

💡 Pro Tip: Choose the school in your own block. Preference goes to local residents, so applying to a school outside your block weakens your case.

Selection Process

There is no written exam and no interview mentioned. Selection is purely merit-based.

1. Scrutiny of applications: The school Principal and the designated education authorities check your form and documents.
2. Merit list: Marks from your academic qualifications are counted with a prescribed weightage. The mix depends on the school level — higher secondary, middle school or primary. [Check official notification for exact weightage]
3. Tie-break: If two candidates have equal marks, the older candidate gets preference.
4. Waiting list: A waiting list of five candidates is maintained and stays valid until 31 March 2027.

Because selection depends on marks alone, an incomplete or unattested certificate can cost you points or your whole application.
