Background of This Recruitment
The post of Social Forestry Worker under the Forest, Ecology and Environment Department was advertised across two separate notifications — Notification No. 03 of 2021 (covering Item Nos. 592, 593, and 594) and Notification No. 04 of 2022 (covering Item Nos. 185 and 186). The result released on 19 June 2026 specifically pertains to candidates who applied against Item No. 185 and 186 under Advertisement Notification No. 04 of 2022.
Because this recruitment spans multiple notifications and item numbers, candidates are strongly advised to carefully check which item number applies to their own application before assuming the released scoresheet covers their specific case. Item numbers under JKSSB advertisements typically correspond to a specific cadre, division, or district-wise distribution of posts, so candidates from different recruitment notifications may see their results released at different times.
About the Social Forestry Worker Post
The Social Forestry Worker is a grassroots-level post within the Forest, Ecology and Environment Department, J&K. The role is closely tied to community-level forestry initiatives, including:
- Supporting plantation drives and afforestation activities at the village and panchayat level
- Assisting in community awareness programs related to forest conservation
- Helping protect forest resources and assisting forest staff in monitoring local forest areas
- Coordinating with local communities on social forestry schemes run by the department
This post plays an important role in J&K’s forestry and environmental conservation efforts, particularly given the region’s heavy dependence on forest resources for both ecological balance and rural livelihoods.
Exam Pattern and Syllabus Followed
The written examination for Social Forestry Worker (along with the related Forester post) was conducted as an OMR-based Objective Type test. As per the syllabus notified by JKSSB for these posts:
- Total Marks: 120
- Duration: 2 hours
- Medium of Examination: English
- Nature of Test: The exam was designed to evaluate candidates on scientific, analytical, and numerical aptitude, along with general awareness across a broad range of subjects relevant to the post.
Since Social Forestry Worker is a field-oriented post connected to forestry and rural development, the syllabus also placed emphasis on general awareness related to forestry, environment, and rural administration in Jammu and Kashmir, in addition to standard objective-type sections covering reasoning and numerical ability.
What Happens After the Scoresheet is Released?
It’s important for candidates to understand exactly what a “Result/Scoresheet” release means in the JKSSB recruitment process, since it is distinct from a final selection list. Typically, the process moves through the following stages after a scoresheet is published:
- Scoresheet Publication: JKSSB releases the marks obtained by each candidate (or shortlisted candidates) in the written examination. This is the stage that has just been completed for Social Forestry Worker.
- Provisional Selection List: Based on the scoresheet and the reservation roster applicable to the post, JKSSB typically publishes a provisional list of candidates recommended for the next stage or for final selection.
- Objection/Representation Window: Candidates are usually given a short window to raise objections or representations if they find discrepancies in their marks or category status.
- Document Verification: Shortlisted candidates are called for verification of original educational certificates, category certificates, domicile certificates, and other supporting documents.
- Final Selection List: After document verification, JKSSB publishes the final selection list, followed by the issuance of offer/appointment orders by the Forest, Ecology and Environment Department.
Candidates who have appeared for this exam should keep all original documents ready in advance, since the document verification stage typically follows fairly quickly after a provisional or final list is announced, with limited preparation time.
How to Check Your Result
To check your individual marks in the released scoresheet:
- Click on the official result PDF link shared above.
- The document will typically be organized by roll number or application number — use the search function (Ctrl+F on most browsers/PDF readers) to locate your specific roll number quickly instead of scrolling through the entire list.
- Cross-check your name, application/roll number, and category against the marks shown to confirm accuracy.
- If you notice any discrepancy, follow the official JKSSB grievance redressal process rather than relying on unofficial sources or social media claims.
Important Advice for Candidates
With a result of this nature — covering specific item numbers under a specific advertisement — there is often confusion among candidates regarding whether the released document applies to their particular application. A few points to keep in mind:
- Always cross-verify the exact Item Number and Advertisement Notification Number mentioned in the result against your own application/admit card before checking your status.
- If you applied under Notification No. 03 of 2021 (Item Nos. 592, 593, 594) rather than Notification No. 04 of 2022 (Item Nos. 185, 186), your result may be released separately, on a different date.
- Keep checking the official JKSSB website and authentic JKSSB-update sources regularly, as recruitment notifications for related posts (such as Forester, under the same department) tend to follow a similar timeline.
- Avoid relying on unofficial WhatsApp or social media forwards for result information — always verify directly from the JKSSB website link shared above.
Why This Result Matters
The Forest, Ecology and Environment Department has been one of the more active departments in terms of JKSSB recruitment activity over the past year, with multiple posts — including Forester, FPF Guard, and now Social Forestry Worker — moving through various stages of examination and result declaration. For aspirants tracking forestry and environment department recruitment in J&K, this scoresheet release is a meaningful step forward in a process that has been ongoing since the original advertisement was issued in 2021 and 2022.
Given the multi-year gap between advertisement and result in several JKSSB recruitment cycles, this result will be particularly significant for candidates who have been waiting since their original application under Item No. 185 and 186.
