Pakistan Railways has opened recruitment under the Balochistan quota, with three advertisements posted on 27 October 2026 and a closing date of 11 November 2026 for all three. The openings cover the Divisional Superintendent's Office in Quetta, the headquarters office in Lahore and the Ministry of Railways in Islamabad, and candidates are directed to submit their applications online through the National Job Portal rather than by post. The Quetta advertisement covers clerical, technical, driving, medical and workshop trades, including lower division clerks, assistant drivers, telecom technicians, X-ray assistants, wiremen, fitters, welders, carpenters and electricians, alongside other posts.

Who can apply and how

The Lahore headquarters advertisement covers sub-engineer posts in mechanical, signal, telecom, electrical power, civil and drawing disciplines, plus assistant station masters, while the Ministry of Railways advertisement covers stenotypists, lower division clerks, staff car drivers and naib qasids. All three advertisements are reserved for Balochistan-quota candidates, so applicants should check the domicile and eligibility conditions in the full advertisement for the post they want before applying. Candidates should also note that the advertisement for each post is the final word on eligibility, qualifications and age limits, so reading it in full matters more than any summary. A separate advertisement on the same page, also closing on 11 November 2026, invites applications for a project manager (software) and a deputy director of IT infrastructure on contract. Apply online via the National Job Portal at https://www.njp.gov.pk and check the official Pakistan Railways Career page at https://www.pakrail.gov.pk/Career.aspx for the advertisement files and the exact closing date.
