The selection process for the Lohardaga NHM Recruitment 2026 is merit-based and involves a written examination followed by document verification. Candidates should prepare accordingly as the written test carries the majority of the weightage in the final merit list. Written Examination (60 marks): Objective, multiple-choice questions; duration of 1 hour. Academic/Training Score (40 marks): Marks are awarded based on percentage obtained in qualifying examinations as per the prescribed scoring formula. Skill Test (if applicable): For select posts, a skill test may be conducted, which is qualifying in nature only and does not contribute to the merit score. Document Verification: Shortlisted candidates must present original certificates at the time of verification. Final Merit List: Prepared by the District Selection Committee, Lohardaga, and published on the official district website and notice boards. The merit list will remain valid for one year from the date of publication. The written test will be held separately for vacancies under different programmes. For ANM and paramedical posts: 10+2 score of 50–64% = 10 marks; 65–79% = 15 marks; 80–100% = 20 marks. Training/paramedical training score follows the same slab. For non-paramedical posts: 50–64% = 10 marks; 65–79% = 20 marks; 80–100% = 30 marks, plus up to 10 marks for relevant higher qualifications.
