About the Organisation

Chittaranjan National Cancer Institute began in 1950 as Chittaranjan Cancer Hospital and became CNCI after a merger in 1987, functioning today as a Regional Cancer Centre for eastern India. (This is added context, not part of the official notification. Confirm with the hiring office.) It works under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, and runs two campuses in Kolkata: the original campus on S.P. Mukherjee Road and a newer campus in New Town. For a candidate, this means working security duty at an active government hospital and research campus rather than a private office or factory.

Working at CNCI’s Kolkata Campuses

CNCI’s first campus is on S.P. Mukherjee Road in south Kolkata, an established, well-connected part of the city. Its second campus is in Action Area 1D, New Town, a planned township on the northeastern edge of Kolkata developed with wide roads, government and private bus services, and proximity to the airport and the Rajarhat–Salt Lake business belt. (This is added context, not part of the official notification. Confirm with the hiring office.) The notification does not specify which campus each guard will be posted to, so candidates should confirm this at the time of selection. Since the recruitment address itself is the New Town campus, candidates travelling from other parts of West Bengal should plan for a Kolkata-based posting and factor in commute from wherever they are assigned.

Important Dates

The notification carries both dates as shown above. Since the “How to Apply” section is more specific about the application actually reaching the office, candidates are advised to send their form early enough to arrive by 26 July 2026, 05:00 PM.

Vacancy Details and Salary

Verified total: 10 posts.

Relaxation of age, equivalent to the number of years of experience beyond the essential criteria, will be given to candidates with higher experience. Pay will be released through the outsourcing agency, and PF, ESIC, and other statutory benefits will apply as applicable.

Should You Apply?

This role suits ex-servicemen, ex-policemen, and ex-paramilitary personnel who want a structured security assignment at a government cancer institute in Kolkata, and who can meet the 55-year age limit (with relaxation for extra experience). It does not suit fresh candidates without a defence, police, or paramilitary background, since that experience is the core eligibility condition here, and there is no separate qualification requirement to fall back on. One honest trade-off: this is an outsourced post through M/s. Smart Security of India, not a direct or permanent CNCI appointment. The engagement is initially for up to one year, and continuation depends on CNCI’s own assessment at the end of each term, so it offers steady work but not guaranteed long-term job security. Pay follows the Central Minimum Wage rather than a fixed government pay scale, and there is no TA/DA for the selection process, so candidates should weigh the commute and interview costs before applying.
