The Delhi High Court has officially announced a recruitment drive for 2026 for the positions of Personal Assistant and Senior Personal Assistant. The notification states that applications are now being accepted online, and eligible candidates are urged to submit their forms before the deadline.
According to the recruitment notice, a total number of vacancies have been identified across these two categories. The posts of Personal Assistant and Senior Personal Assistant are group 'C' level positions within the judicial administrative setup. These roles primarily involve assisting senior judicial officers in day-to-day administrative work, maintaining files and records, managing correspondence, and ensuring smooth functioning of the chambers.
Candidates interested in applying must meet the minimum educational qualification criteria set by the court. For the post of Personal Assistant, candidates are generally required to have passed graduation from a recognized university, along with proficiency in Hindi typing and basic computer operations. For the Senior Personal Assistant position, a graduation degree is typically mandatory, supplemented by better command over both Hindi and English languages, including faster typing speed and familiarity with office automation tools.
The selection process for these posts will be carried out through a combination of a written examination and a skill test. The written test is expected to assess candidates' general knowledge, reasoning ability, comprehension skills, and domain-specific knowledge related to legal and administrative procedures. The skill test will primarily focus on Hindi and English typing speed, as well as familiarity with MS Office applications.
Age relaxation provisions will apply as per the standard government rules for candidates belonging to reserved categories. As is typical in such recruitments, the upper age limit for general category candidates is usually capped at 44 years, while candidates from SC, ST, OBC, and other specified categories may receive appropriate relaxations.
Interested and eligible candidates can submit their applications through the official Delhi High Court website. Applicants are advised to read the complete information brochure carefully before filling out the form, as any incorrect detail may lead to disqualification. For further details regarding the application procedure, fee structure, and exam schedule, candidates should visit the official Delhi High Court recruitment portal or refer to the official notification document.
