PNB Rohtak Recruitment 2026: Watchman cum Gardener Post at RSETI Kharawar – 7th Pass, Apply Offline

Punjab National Bank, Rohtak has invited offline applications for the contractual post of Watchman cum Gardener at its Rural Self Employment Training Institute — PNB RSETI, Kharawar (District Rohtak, Haryana). This is a small, local recruitment with just one post, but it deserves a careful read because two of its conditions are different from the usual watchman vacancies: the minimum age is 22 years, not 18, and the contract runs for a full three years, which is far longer than the 11-month engagements most such posts offer.

The qualification is only 7th pass, there is no application fee, and candidates who know farming or gardening work will be given preference — which makes sense, because this is a combined watchman-plus-gardener role on a training institute campus, not a plain security-guard desk job. Your application must reach by 10 November 2026, and only Registered Post / Speed Post is accepted. Read the eligibility traps and the form rules below before you post the envelope.

Eligibility – Two Conditions People Commonly Get Wrong

1. Minimum age is 22 years. Most watchman and 7th-pass posts in Haryana start eligibility at 18, so many young candidates will assume they qualify. Here the printed age limit is 22–40 years, counted as on the last date (10 November 2026). If you are 18, 19, 20 or 21 on that date, you are not eligible for this post, whatever your experience. On the other side, you must not have crossed 40 on 10 November 2026.

2. 7th pass is enough — but gardening/farming knowledge is the tie-breaker. The notice says preference will be given to candidates who have knowledge of farming (kheti) and gardening (baghwani). The RSETI campus at Kharawar is a rural training institute with grounds to maintain, so the selected person will guard the premises and look after the campus greenery. If you have actually done farm or garden work, say so clearly in the form and attach any experience proof you have — in a one-post recruitment, this preference can decide the outcome.

The 7th-Pass vs 10th-Certificate Confusion in the Documents List

Here is a genuine oddity in this advertisement that you should notice before dispatch: the post needs only a 7th pass, yet the documents list asks for a date-of-birth proof and names the 10th (matric) certificate for it. Many 7th-pass candidates will not have a matric certificate at all.

The practical way to handle it: attach the best date-of-birth proof you actually have — your school certificate showing your date of birth (and your Aadhaar card copy, which is separately required anyway). If you do hold a 10th certificate, attach it as the notice says. Do not let this printing mismatch stop you from applying, but do not send the form without any DOB proof either — an application with no age proof against a 22–40 age rule is an easy rejection.

How to Apply for PNB Rohtak Watchman cum Gardener Recruitment 2026

The application form is available with local form sellers in your village/city. Fill it exactly as the notice directs — this advertisement is unusually strict about format:

• Fill all columns clearly in English capital letters.
• Make no cutting and no overwriting anywhere in the form. If you spoil a form, fill a fresh one.
• Do not leave any column blank. Where a column does not apply to you, write “Not Applicable” or “No” in it.
• On the application envelope, write in English capital letters: “Application for the post of ______ at RSETI – Kharawar, Cat….” (with the post name and your category filled in).
• Keep the instruction sheet with yourself — do not enclose it with the application.
• Send the form with self-attested document copies by Registered Post / Speed Post only, so that it reaches on or before 10 November 2026. Ordinary post, courier or hand delivery is not mentioned in the notice — do not risk it.

Application Address:
The Director,
Punjab National Bank Rural Self Employment Training Institute (PNB RSETI),
VPO Kharawar, Behind Power House,
Kharawar, District Rohtak, Haryana – 124021

Documents to Attach With the Application Form

Attach self-attested photocopies of the following. Do not send original certificates with the application.

1. Educational and professional qualification certificates
2. Date of birth proof (10th certificate, as named in the notice — see the note above if you are 7th pass only)
3. Caste certificate copy (for reserved category candidates)
4. Experience certificate copy (if you have experience related to the post)
5. Aadhaar Card copy
6. Computer and other relevant certificates (if any)
7. One self-addressed envelope with your complete postal address written on it

Selection Process & Job Terms

• Applications will be screened, and only the selected/shortlisted candidates will be called for interview. There is no written exam mentioned in the notice, and no interview date is printed — if you are shortlisted, the call will come to you, which is exactly why the self-addressed envelope and your correct address matter.
• The appointment is on contract for three years. That is a contractual engagement with the institute, not a permanent bank job — but three years of continuity is noticeably better than the short 11-month contracts common in similar postings.
• The selected candidate will be posted at PNB RSETI, Kharawar itself.
• The notice also states that all rights regarding this recruitment rest with the department, and it directs candidates to verify the departmental advertisement before applying and to check https://www.pnbindia.in/ for more information.

Common Mistakes That Can Cost You This Application

• Applying at age 19–21. The minimum age here is 22 — the single biggest trap in this vacancy.
• Sending the form by ordinary post or courier. Only Registered Post / Speed Post is specified; use a mode with proof of posting and delivery.
• Posting on the last date. The form must reach Kharawar by 10 November 2026. Post at least a week early.
• Leaving columns blank instead of writing “Not Applicable” / “No”. A printed rejection ground in this notice.
• Cutting or overwriting in the form. Explicitly banned — one correction can void the whole application.
• Skipping the self-addressed envelope. It is in the documents list, and it is the channel for your interview call.
