Who Can Apply? Eligibility & Domicile Conditions

• This section answers the most basic question first: can you even apply? The department has laid down two non-negotiable conditions that apply to every single post in this drive, regardless of qualification or category.
• Candidates must be a citizen of India and a permanent resident of the State of Manipur.
• Candidates must be able to speak Manipuri or any of the notified Scheduled Tribe dialects of Manipur.
• Applicants must be sponsored by the concerned Employment Exchange to be considered eligible.
• The engagement is purely contractual - running from the date of the contract agreement up to the close of the financial year, and extendable from time to time at the department's discretion.
• Beyond these common conditions, each post carries its own educational qualification and age bracket, detailed in the table below.

Post-Wise Qualification, Age Limit & Pay

• This is the section most candidates search for directly - which post matches their qualification, how many seats are open, and what it pays. All 282 vacancies and their post-specific requirements are consolidated here.
• Qualification
• Remuneration is fixed as per FD/PIC norms - 50% of the 1st Cell in the applicable Level of the Pay Matrix under RoP-2019.

Age Relaxation Rules

• Upper age limits aren't rigid for everyone. The notification carves out specific relaxations for serving government employees and reserved-category candidates:
• Existing Government servants appointed under the Government of Manipur get the upper age limit relaxed to the extent of their continuous service already put into the post.
• SC/ST candidates get a 5-year relaxation; OBC candidates get a 3-year relaxation - both added on top of whatever relaxation a serving government servant is already entitled to.
• A one-time age relaxation of 2 (two) years applies to any applicant who is above the prescribed upper age limit, across all nine posts.

Category-Wise Vacancy Breakdown (Reservation Roster)

• For candidates checking how many seats fall under their specific reservation category, here's the complete roster issued by the department.
• Reservation for PwD (Persons with Disabilities) and Meritorious Sportspersons will also be applied as per existing Manipur State Government rules. Candidates wishing to claim the Sports Quota must submit the prescribed forms under Office Memorandum No. 9/1/83-DP dated 17/10/1998, available on the department's website.

How Selection Works: Group B, C & D Explained

• Not every post is tested the same way. The department has split all nine posts into three groups, and the exam pattern changes depending on which group your post falls under. Knowing your group tells you exactly how to prepare.

Application Fee for Manipur Horticulture Recruitment 2026

• Fee amounts differ by post category and reservation status. PwD candidates are exempt from fees across every post.
