Update (13 Oct 2026): The LSG Department has officially extended the application deadline to 28 October 2026 (corrigendum 03/2026 dated 12-Oct-2026). An earlier version of this post treated 13 October as the final date — the sections below have been corrected.
Deadline Extended to 28 October 2026
There is good news for everyone who was racing the clock: the Rajasthan LSG Department has officially extended the application deadline for Contractual Safai Karamchari Recruitment 2026 (Advt 01/2026) to 28 October 2026, per LSG Department corrigendum 03/2026 dated 12-Oct-2026. All other conditions remain unchanged, and all 24,752 posts are still on the line.
You now have until 28 October to submit your application — but do not treat the extension as an excuse to wait. SSO registration, document uploads and fee payment can all hit snags, so get your form finished well before the last day. This post remains your complete checklist — the deadline status, who is eligible, the exact SSO steps, the fee, and the links.
The 28 October Extension Is Now Official
Earlier today this post said no official source backed a 28 October extension — that was true when it was published this morning. It has since been superseded: the LSG Department has issued corrigendum 03/2026 dated 12-Oct-2026, officially extending the application deadline to 28 October 2026.
Note that the recruitment portal listing (recruitment.rajasthan.gov.in) still shows 13-Oct-2026 — that listing is stale; the corrigendum is the authoritative source. So yes, you now have until 28 October — but do not bet on a further extension. Apply early.

Who Can Apply — The Quick Check
Before you start the form, run through this. There’s no point applying if you’re ineligible — and this recruitment has one condition that trips up a lot of people:
| Criterion | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Age limit | 21–40 years as on 01/01/2027 (born between 02.01.1987 and 01.01.2006); relaxation as per Rajasthan rules |
| Domicile | Must be a Rajasthan resident |
| Experience | 1 year of sanitation work in an Urban Local Body — this is the one people miss |
| Education | No educational qualification prescribed |
| ULB rule | Apply for ONE Urban Local Body only — multiple applications get rejected |
How to Apply on the SSO Portal
Applications go through the SSO portal — no offline forms, no direct site submission. If you don’t have an SSO ID yet, register first; it takes a few minutes but don’t leave it for the evening:
- Go to sso.rajasthan.gov.in and log in with your SSO ID. New user? Register with your Jan Aadhaar / Bhamashah / Google account first.
- Open ‘Citizen Apps’ → Recruitment Portal (the official apply portal is recruitment.rajasthan.gov.in).
- Find ‘Contractual Safai Karamchari – 2026 (LSG)’ in the ongoing recruitments list and click Apply.
- Fill the form carefully — personal details, domicile, ULB choice (remember: ONE ULB only), and your 1-year sanitation experience details.
- Upload documents — photo, signature, domicile proof, and your experience certificate from the Urban Local Body.
- Pay the fee online (see table below) and submit before the portal closes tonight.
- Save and print the final submitted form. You’ll need the application ID later — screenshot it too.
Application Fee
| Category | Fee |
|---|---|
| General / Other State candidates | Rs. 600 |
| OBC / BC / SC / ST / EWS / PwD (Rajasthan) | Rs. 400 |
Fee is payable online through the portal. Some sources mention a Rs. 100 correction charge if you need to edit the form — so get it right the first time and skip that headache.
How Selection Works
Here’s the part that makes this recruitment different from most: there is no written exam. Selection runs through shortlisting/lottery, followed by document verification and a medical examination. No syllabus to cram, no CBT hall ticket to wait for — your experience certificate and documents do the talking. The post is contractual with a fixed remuneration of Rs. 7,410 per month.
That also means document accuracy matters more than ever. A wrong ULB choice, a missing experience certificate, or a duplicate application can knock you out before the lottery even runs. Double-check everything — we see the same document mistakes cost candidates every cycle, including in recruitments like the SKAU Kurukshetra non-teaching posts where the form closed on 26 October.
