The Young Professional II (YP-II) working under the All India Coordinated Research Project (AICRP) Rani Unit supports the Principal Investigator (PI) and administrative/accounts wing in managing project financial ledgers, tracking sanctioned grant allocations, preparing Utilisation Certificates (UCs) and Statements of Expenditure (SOEs), coordinating public financial management via PFMS and GeM, assisting in auditing and procurement, and coordinating field visits with beneficiary farmers and piggery entrepreneurs across the northeastern region. The institute campus environment is research-focused, orderly, and academic.
