MPESB Group 3 Sub Engineer Recruitment 2026: Revised to 1,700 Vacancies, Apply by 12 September

The Madhya Pradesh Employees Selection Board (MPESB), also known as MP Vyapam, has issued a revised notification for its Group-3 Combined Recruitment Examination, raising the vacancy count for Sub Engineer and allied technical posts to 1,700. The drive covers roles such as Sub Engineer, Draftsman and Laboratory Technician across various Madhya Pradesh government engineering departments. The revision significantly expands the opportunity for diploma and degree-holding engineering candidates in the state, since the vacancy count is notably higher than what was originally notified for this cycle. Candidates who had already started or submitted an application under the earlier notification should review the revised notice for any changes to posts, eligibility or the application timeline. Eligible candidates can apply online through the MPESB portal within the application window, and can also use the correction facility afterward to fix errors in category, post preference or other details before the correction deadline closes. The written examination for the recruitment is expected to begin in early October. Given the scale of the revised vacancies, this recruitment is likely to see heavy competition from engineering diploma and degree holders across Madhya Pradesh. Candidates are advised to complete their application early and keep checking the official MPESB website for the exam city and admit card notices.
