About This Recruitment
National Health Mission, Assam has notified recruitment for 2,204 posts under NHM-31013(11)/5/2025-HRD-NHM. Applications are accepted online from 01 Aug 2026 to 15 Aug 2026. The prescribed qualification is B.Sc. Nursing or GNM from an Indian Nursing Council recognised institution, with State Council registration, and the age limit is 18 to 40 years before category relaxation is applied.
Selection is made through Shortlisting and Further stages. Selected candidates are placed in the pay scale of ₹20,000 per month, consolidated. The place of posting is Assam — Barak Valley, Central Assam, Lower Assam, North Assam and Upper Assam zones.
The entire process is completed online, from registration through to fee payment and the final printout of the confirmation page. Check the notification for whether a correction window is offered, because most fields cannot be amended once the form is submitted.
Read the official notification in full before you begin the form. Eligibility, fees and dates are revised through corrigenda more often than candidates expect, and an application submitted against the wrong criteria is rejected at document verification rather than at submission — by which point the cycle is over.
