Eligibility
- Native of Rajasthan. Reserved-category candidates from other states are treated as General — but every applicant must be a native of Rajasthan.
- No educational qualification is required.
- Experience: one year of sanitation work in any urban local body of Rajasthan. It may be continuous or made up of separate periods adding up to one year.
- Experience certificate in the prescribed format, issued after 1 August 2026 and before the last date. If you worked directly for the body, it is issued by the Executive Officer or an authorised officer; if you worked through a contractor, the contractor's certificate must be countersigned by the officer named in the advertisement. The format is on lsg.urban.rajasthan.gov.in.
- Apply to only one urban local body. Applying in more than one body, or more than once, cancels all your applications.
- Fake experience certificates lead to strict legal action against the candidate and the issuing person or agency.

Selection by Lottery
- Eligible applicants with one year of experience in the same urban local body enter the lottery first.
- If posts remain, applicants with experience in other bodies of the same district are added.
- If posts still remain, applicants with experience in any urban local body of the state are added.
The lottery is run category-wise through online software developed by Rajasthan's DoIT department. Where the High Court has ordered priority or regularisation for petitioners in earlier sanitation recruitments, they get priority in that body.
