The District and Sessions Court, Chamarajanagar, Karnataka has released the Chamarajanagar District Court Recruitment 2026 notification for 25 Group C vacancies across four posts – Peon (13), Stenographer Grade-III (2), Typist (6) and Typist-Copyist (4). The online application window opened on 27 July 2026 and the last date to apply online is 27 August 2026. The last date for fee payment is 29 August 2026. Candidates can apply through the official Chamarajanagar District Court website chamarajanagara.dcourts.gov.in. Qualification requirements vary by post – from SSLC (10th pass) for Peon to Second PUC (12th) with Karnataka Secondary Education Examination Board (KSEEB) shorthand and typing certification for Stenographer and Typist posts. Kannada language proficiency is mandatory for all posts – Peon candidates will be tested on reading and writing Kannada, and Stenographer/Typist candidates must hold KSEEB Kannada typing/shorthand certifications.
Important Note: Three things every candidate must verify before applying. First, Kannada proficiency is a mandatory requirement for all four posts – not just Typist/Stenographer posts. Even Peon candidates must know how to read and write Kannada, and a test will be conducted on Kannada reading, writing and general knowledge. Candidates without Kannada proficiency should not apply. Second, for Stenographer and Typist posts, the qualification is not just a degree – candidates must specifically hold the Senior Grade (Stenographer/Typist) or Junior Grade (Typist-Copyist) examination certification in both Kannada and English typewriting/shorthand, conducted by the Karnataka Secondary Education Examination Board. Alternative qualifications through Diploma in Commercial Practice or Secretarial Practice are accepted only with specific KSEEB exam clearances. Third, the last date to pay the application fee (29 August 2026) is two days after the application deadline (27 August 2026) – candidates who submit the application on 27 August must ensure fee payment is completed by 29 August.
