Bhattadev University has released a non-teaching recruitment notice for Junior Assistant, Accounts Assistant and Office Assistant (MTS) posts at its Bajali, Pathsala campus in Assam. For users searching whether the form is out, how many posts are available, what qualification is needed, and what the last date is, the key point is this: the application starts through the Samarth portal, but the process does not end there. After submitting online, candidates also have to send the required hard-copy set to the university within the prescribed deadline.
The official advertisement was issued on 10 March 2026, the application portal was activated from 25 March 2026, and the university later extended the deadlines. The revised last date for online submission is 22 April 2026, and the revised last date for offline submission of the hard copy is 29 April 2026. Since the university has clearly separated online and offline deadlines, candidates should plan both steps together instead of waiting until the last day.
This page brings together the exact vacancy breakup, post-wise qualification, age rules, application fee, selection pattern, and the correct application route based on the official Bhattadev University notice and related university notices. It is written to help applicants quickly decide which post they are eligible for and what they need to do next.
Bhattadev University Recruitment 2026 Overview
Bhattadev University has invited applications from eligible Indian nationals for 8 non-teaching posts under Advertisement No. Bhatt. U/E&A Sec./Advt.026/Non-Teaching/2026/7840 dated 10 March 2026. The recruitment covers Junior Assistant, Accounts Assistant and Office Assistant (MTS) positions.
The application process is partly online and partly offline. Candidates have to submit the form through the Samarth portal and then send the hard-copy application set to the university.

The university later issued an extension notice, so the latest official dates are 22 April 2026 for online submission and 29 April 2026 for offline submission.
