Overview

Animal Husbandry Department, Uttarakhand (AHD Uttarakhand) Veterinary Pharmacy Officer Recruitment 2026 is out, with 28 vacancies announced on 20 July 2026 under Advertisement No. 2256/स्था०एक/प०चि०का०अ०/2026-27. This AHD Uttarakhand government job 2026 is open to candidates holding Intermediate with Science from a Uttarakhand or UP Board (or equivalent), along with a Diploma in Pharmacy (D.Pharm) from a recognised institution, and registered with the Uttarakhand Pharmacy Council. Eligible candidates aged 18 to 42 years can apply offline, with the last date to submit applications being 12 September 2026. Uttarakhand's hill and border districts host a large and dispersed livestock population, and the Animal Husbandry Department relies on a network of veterinary hospitals, dispensaries, and mobile veterinary units to deliver animal healthcare across difficult terrain. Veterinary Pharmacy Officers form a critical link in this chain, ensuring that prescribed medicines are correctly dispensed and stocked at the point of care, which is especially important in remote hill areas where a livestock owner may not have easy access to a private pharmacy. Selected Veterinary Pharmacy Officers will dispense medicines and support treatment procedures at veterinary hospitals and dispensaries under the Animal Husbandry Department across Uttarakhand, playing a direct role in the state's livestock healthcare delivery. The selection process for AHD Uttarakhand Veterinary Pharmacy Officer 2026 consists of a merit list prepared strictly on marks obtained in the Diploma in Pharmacy examination, with year-wise preparation of the list as per the Uttarakhand Veterinary Pharmacy Officer Service Rules, 2010, and its 2011 amendment — there is no written examination or interview for this recruitment. The salary for AHD Uttarakhand Veterinary Pharmacy Officer 2026 is ₹35,400 to ₹1,12,400 per month at Pay Level-6, a stable state government pay scale for a paramedical veterinary support role, comparable to entry-level Diploma-holder posts in the state's human healthcare pharmacy cadre. Candidates should download the application form from the official AHD Uttarakhand website, www.v.anr.uk.gov.in, fill it carefully, and send it along with self-attested copies of their photograph, signature, ID proof, and educational certificates to the address specified in the notification, via Speed Post or Registered Post. The application fee is ₹300 for General/OBC candidates and ₹150 for SC/ST candidates. Candidates must read the complete official AHD Uttarakhand notification PDF before applying, since the exact submission address and required document checklist are detailed there. Since selection is decided entirely on Diploma in Pharmacy marks with no further test, candidates should ensure their marksheet and certificate details are transcribed accurately on the application form, as any discrepancy could affect merit list preparation.
