Central Railway Advocate Recruitment 2026 — 33 Posts, Apply by 23 Oct

Central Railway has released Central Railway Advocate Recruitment 2026 under Advertisement No. 01/2026 for 33 Railway Advocate posts across 18 station locations spanning Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Karnataka, including Alibaug, Ahmednagar, Ambejogai, Amla, Beed, Betul, Chandrapur, Hingoli, Junnardeo, Kalyan, Kalaburagi, Latur, Mangaon, Majalgaon, Panvel, Shrigonda, Thane and Vadgaon. Candidates holding an LL.B. degree from a recognised university, with a minimum of 3 years' experience as a practising Advocate, can apply by email from 21 September 2026 to 23 October 2026. Selected Railway Advocates will handle legal matters for Central Railway at their designated station/court location, on a contractual basis. The selection process is Shortlisting, a Personal Interview, Document Verification, and Background Verification. There is no application fee mentioned for any category, and no salary/remuneration figure is specified in the available notification summary — candidates should confirm this from the official notification PDF. Candidates for Central Railway Advocate Recruitment 2026 must prepare a complete bio-data application with self-attested copies of educational and experience certificates, ID proof and recent photographs, mention the post applied for (including the specific station location) in the email subject line, and send it to the official email address specified in the notification, ensuring it is sent on or before 23 October 2026. Candidates must read the complete official notification PDF before applying, since vacancy count differs significantly by station — from 1 post at several locations to 4 posts at Latur. Zonal railways like Central Railway regularly engage local Advocates at stations along their route network to handle land acquisition, encroachment, criminal and civil matters arising within that jurisdiction, since litigation is often more efficiently managed by counsel already familiar with the local courts and administrative offices.

LL.B. degree from a recognised University, plus minimum 3 years' experience as a practising Advocate.
