Relaxations & certificates
- Upper age relaxed by 5 years for SC, ST and SEBC candidates.
- Upper age relaxed by 5 years for women for RI, ARI, VAW, Junior Assistant, Amin and SFS; ICDS Supervisor posts are reserved for women, so no separate women's relaxation applies there, and serving Anganwadi Workers get a further 5 years for ICDS Supervisor.
