• For direct recruitment to Anganwadi Karyakartri and Sahayika posts, the following order of preference applies within the same gram sabha/ward:
• A widow woman from a Below Poverty Line (BPL) family, resident of that gram sabha/ward.
• A legally divorced/deserted woman from a BPL family, resident of that gram sabha/ward.
• If no candidate is available under the above two categories, women from BPL families in that gram sabha/ward.
• If no candidate is available under any of the above, in the same order of preference: a widow woman from an Above Poverty Line (APL) family; a legally divorced/deserted woman from an APL family; and if none is available, women from APL families in that gram sabha/ward.
• If no eligible candidate is available in any of the above categories within the gram sabha, category-wise selection will be made from within the concerned Nyaya Panchayat.

For a divorced/deserted woman, a valid legal order issued by a competent court will be required.

Etah Anganwadi Recruitment 2026: Merit and Selection Basis

• If more than one vacancy is notified in a gram sabha/ward and an applicant applies against all notified posts within her eligibility, selection will be based on whichever Anganwadi centre code is generated first on the portal for that applicant; no option/choice will be taken from the candidate in this regard, and once selection is finalised on the first-generated centre code, that applicant will not be considered for any other centre code.
• The gram panchayat/ward will be determined as per the current delimitation, and the reservation of the concerned Anganwadi centre will remain as it currently stands.
• Selected candidates who are already elected representatives (Gram Sabha member, Gram Pradhan, Kshetra Panchayat member, Kshetra Panchayat Adhyaksha, Nagar Palika member, or Sabhasad/Parshad, etc.) must resign from that position before joining; failure to do so will result in cancellation of their selection, and the responsibility for this rests solely with the candidate.
