Deaf / Hard of Hearing eligibility

The official notification identifies the following hearing-disability categories for selected PwBD posts:

For Office Assistant (Admin), the identified PwBD categories include:

  • HI (D/HH) — Hearing Impaired, Deaf and Hard of Hearing
  • VI (B/LV)
  • Locomotor Disability categories listed in the notification
  • ASD (Mild)
  • Multiple Disability involving the listed categories

This means Deaf (D) and Hard of Hearing (HH) candidates are explicitly included for the Office Assistant post, subject to the other eligibility conditions.

The identified PwBD categories include:

  • HH — Hard of Hearing
  • OL — One Leg

Attendant — Nagpur

PwBD vacancy position

The recruitment contains 5 PwBD-reserved seats across posts where hearing-disability categories are identified as eligible:

Project Post Total Posts PwBD Seats Hearing category identified
Nagpur Office Assistant 8 2 HI (D/HH)
Nagpur Technician (Electrical) 8 1 HH
Nagpur Attendant 8 1 HH
Pune Office Assistant 7 1 HI (D/HH)

Important: These 5 PwBD seats are not stated as exclusively reserved for Deaf/HH candidates. For Office Assistant, Technician (Electrical) and Attendant, MAHA-Metro lists more than one eligible disability category. DeafJobsIndia therefore does not describe these as “5 Deaf/HH vacancies.”
