The official notice lists three vacancies in total. These are one post each for Young Professional, Physiotherapist (Grade-I), and Masseur.

Important dates

The notice does not mention a written test date or interview date in advance. It says applications will be scrutinized and shortlisted candidates will be called for interview.

Vacancy details

The official notice also states that deployment may vary based on workload. Candidates should therefore treat the vacancy table as the notified intake for the present selection, with posting needs subject to the council's requirements.
