The Gujarat Livestock Promotion Company Limited (GLPC), a state-owned enterprise under the Government of Gujarat, has released a recruitment notification for 392 managerial-level positions in Project Manager and Taluka Livelihood Manager roles. The hiring drive is aimed at strengthening the company's operations across various districts of Gujarat, particularly in areas related to livestock development, rural livelihoods, and project implementation.
According to the official recruitment advertisement, candidates can apply online through the GLPC website. The application window opened in August 2021, and eligible applicants were required to submit their forms along with the prescribed fee through the designated online portal. The company emphasized that interested candidates should verify all eligibility criteria before applying, as incomplete or incorrect submissions may lead to disqualification.
The two primary categories of vacancies include Project Manager and Taluka Livelihood Manager. Project Manager positions are typically responsible for overseeing developmental projects related to livestock and dairy farming initiatives across allotted regions. Taluka Livelihood Manager roles focus on grassroots-level implementation of livelihood programs at the taluka (sub-district) level, working closely with local self-help groups, farmer producer organizations, and community-based institutions.
Eligibility for these positions generally requires candidates to hold a bachelor's or master's degree in relevant disciplines such as agriculture, veterinary sciences, animal husbandry, management, or related fields. Some positions may also require prior work experience in project management or rural development sectors. The age limit and reservation policies follow the Gujarat state government norms, with relaxations applicable for reserved categories.
The selection process is expected to involve a combination of written examination, skill assessment, and/or interview rounds, though the exact procedure was to be communicated in the official merit list and subsequent notifications. Candidates who qualify will be called for document verification and medical fitness checks before final appointment letters are issued.
GLPC, established to promote livestock and dairy farming in Gujarat, plays a pivotal role in executing schemes linked to the National Livestock Mission and state-level rural development programs. This recruitment Drive is seen as part of the company's effort to expand its field-level presence and improve the delivery of livestock development services across Gujarat's rural and semi-urban areas.
