North Eastern Council Secretariat Recruitment 2026: 06 Junior Consultants Vacancies

This opportunity is ideal for seasoned postgraduates with 3-6 years of specialized experience in critical sectors like Agriculture, Tourism, Health, Education, Industry/Logistics, or Planning. Candidates should possess a strong understanding of North Eastern regional development, government schemes, and project management, coupled with a desire for full-time contractual engagement within a Central Government setup. Individuals seeking to directly contribute to regional policy and project implementation in a dynamic environment will find these roles rewarding.

Prospective applicants must note that these are contractual positions with no provision for absorption into permanent government service; therefore, candidates seeking permanent employment should not apply. Those lacking specific sector-wise experience (minimum 3 years) or unfamiliarity with the North East region's development context will find it challenging. Additionally, candidates outside the age bracket of 25-50 years (with standard relaxations for SC/ST/OBC) as on January 1, 2026, are ineligible.

Working with the North Eastern Council Secretariat, a body under the Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region (Government of India), offers significant prestige and a platform to influence regional development. These roles provide extensive exposure to government functioning, policymaking, and multi-sectoral project execution, contributing directly to the welfare and growth of the North East. While contractual, the engagement offers valuable experience in central government projects, enhancing career prospects in development, consultancy, and public policy domains.
