Background of the Recruitment
This recruitment drive for Social Forestry Worker traces back to two separate advertisement notifications issued by JKSSB — Notification No. 03 of 2021 and Notification No. 04 of 2022 — covering Item No.s 592, 593, 185, and 186. Since these item numbers were clubbed together for the same post, JKSSB conducted a single OMR-based written examination for all the consolidated vacancies on 17.05.2026.
For a post like Social Forestry Worker, which involves field-level forestry and ecological conservation work, JKSSB typically follows a two-stage selection process — a written test followed by a Physical Standard Test (PST) and Physical Endurance Test (PET) for shortlisted candidates. The written exam result that’s just been released is the first major milestone in that process.
JKSSB Social Forestry Worker Result Details
Here’s what stood out when I went through the complete 339-page scoresheet:
| Total Candidates Listed in Annexure “A” | 16,820 |
| Candidates Who Appeared (Scored) | 2,648 |
| Candidates Marked Absent | 14,172 |
| Highest Score Recorded | 71.75 |
| Topper | Zahid Shamas (Roll No. 1150217) |
One thing that really jumps out from the data is the sheer scale of the no-show — out of nearly 16,820 candidates whose roll numbers appear in the scoresheet, only about 2,648 actually appeared for the exam, while a massive 14,172 were marked Absent. This kind of gap isn’t unusual for OMR-based recruitment exams in J&K given the volume of applicants, but it’s still a striking number.
Another notable detail: the scoresheet includes candidates with negative scores (the lowest recorded being -11.25), which confirms that JKSSB applied a negative marking scheme while evaluating the OMR answer sheets for this exam.
