About This Update

Haryana Public Service Commission has issued Result-II, dated 5 October 2026, of the Screening Test for 785 posts of Agricultural Development Officer (Administrative Cadre) in the Agriculture & Farmers Welfare Department, Haryana (Advt. No. 17/2025). The screening test was held on 2 November 2025 and its first result came out on 14 November 2025. In view of a Supreme Court order dated 26 August 2025 and an order dated 27 January 2026 in CWP No. 1787/2026, the Commission has withdrawn that result and published a fresh list of roll numbers shortlisted for the Subject Knowledge Test.
