The Ministry of Women and Child Development has extended the online application deadline for appointments to the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR): 16 November 2026. The recruitment notice covers the Chairperson and six Member positions. The original deadline was 17 October.
Positions and areas of experience
The NCPCR application portal allows candidates to apply for the Chairperson post, Member post, or both. It asks applicants to identify a relevant area of expertise, including child education; child health, care, welfare or development; juvenile justice and support for vulnerable children; elimination of child labour; child psychology or sociology; and laws relating to children.
This is a senior statutory commission appointment, not an entry-level government recruitment drive. Applicants should read the original vacancy notice for the complete eligibility and appointment conditions. The extension notice changes the application deadline; it does not announce a change to those terms.
How to apply
Eligible applicants must submit the online form through the official NCPCR vacancy portal. The form requests personal details, educational records, professional experience, specialization and supporting documents. It also asks applicants for a statement explaining their suitability and details of two professional referees.
Deadline: 16 November 2026. The extension notice does not state a closing time; submit through the portal before the date and check it for any update.
Applicants should rely on the Ministry and NCPCR portals for the full eligibility rules, documents and any further notices. The extension alone does not guarantee that an applicant meets the selection criteria.
