Age, Income and Certificate Conditions

• Age cut-off: Women applicants must be at least 18 and no older than 35 on 1 July 2026. Calculate age on this date, rather than the date of application.
• Date-of-birth evidence: The accepted date of birth is the one recorded in the High School marksheet and certificate.
• Annual income thresholds: The stated limits are Rs. 46,080 for rural areas and Rs. 56,460 for urban areas, citing Government Order No. 22/2015/2123/26-2-2015, dated 14 September 2015, of Samaj Kalyan Anubhag-2, Uttar Pradesh. These are annual income figures, not monthly pay amounts.

• Residence and caste evidence: Valid certificates must likewise be Tehsil-issued online, digitally signed and verifiable online.

For the educational requirement, consult the detailed eligibility information on http://upanganwadibharti.in. The High School document requirement above establishes age proof; it should not be treated by itself as the complete educational eligibility rule.

How the Local Selection Preferences Work

The stated preference sequence applies among candidates from the same Gram Sabha, or the same ward in an urban area. BPL means Below Poverty Line and APL means Above Poverty Line. The order is:

1. Widow belonging to the BPL category.
2. Divorced or abandoned woman belonging to the BPL category.
3. Other BPL candidate.
4. Widow belonging to the APL category.
5. Divorced or abandoned woman belonging to the APL category.
6. APL candidate considered on merit.

These preferences must be supported by the prescribed status documents. A widow needs a certificate from the Gram Panchayat Officer or concerned urban local body, together with an attested family register copy. For divorced or abandoned status, a legal or court order is the accepted evidence.
