About Aaple Sarkar Seva Kendra

Aaple Sarkar Seva Kendra centres are citizen-facing service points, operating under the Maharashtra Government’s Electronics, Information Technology and Artificial Intelligence Department framework (per the decision dated 19 January 2018 and its corrigendum dated 09 July 2026), through which residents access various government certificates, documents and e-governance services closer to their homes. This recruitment fills 592 vacant centres across Solapur district, but eligibility is deliberately restricted to candidates already operating as CSC centre holders, Banking Correspondents, or similar citizen facility centre operators in the specific local area of each vacant centre, rather than being open to the general public.

Why This Restriction Exists

By limiting eligibility to candidates already running a CSC, Banking Correspondent, or similar citizen facility centre within the specific local area, the District Setu Committee appears to be prioritizing continuity of established local service infrastructure and existing digital-service experience over entirely new entrants, when filling these vacant Aaple Sarkar Seva Kendra positions. Candidates who do not already operate such a centre in the relevant area, however interested they may be in this opportunity, would need to first establish themselves as a CSC/Banking Correspondent operator elsewhere before they could become eligible for a future round of this recruitment.
