UP Government to Recruit 922 Fire Service Personnel. The Uttar Pradesh government is preparing to take a major step in the Fire Service Department. The recruitment process for 922 new positions will begin soon. These positions were created following the reorganisation of the Fire and Emergency Services Department. Notably, no women’s positions have been included in these recruitments yet.

The government aims to further strengthen fire safety at expressways, regional airports, and trauma centres across the state. After the recruitment process is complete, trained personnel will be deployed in each area.

Three New Units Formed in the State

As part of the reorganisation, three major units are being formed in the Fire Service Department:

  • Regional Connectivity Scheme Unit (RCS)
  • Expressway Accident and Trauma Centre Unit
  • Specially Trained Rescue Group (STRG)

These units will strengthen immediate assistance and rescue operations in emergencies in the state.

Deployment of a fire unit every 100 km

As directed by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, a fire tender and staff will now be deployed every 100 km on each expressway.

This will require 244 personnel. Additionally, a commando-type special unit (Specially Trained Rescue Group) will be formed in each region, requiring 183 personnel.

These teams will be specialised in handling complex situations such as chemical, biological, radiological, and fire in super-high-rise buildings.

New deployments will also be available at airports

As per the MoU signed between the Government of India and the Government of Uttar Pradesh under the Regional Connectivity Scheme (RCS), 420 personnel are required for fire safety at the state’s nine regional airports. These airports include Kushinagar, Azamgarh, Shravasti, Kanpur Nagar, Ayodhya, Aligarh, Moradabad, Chitrakoot, and Sonbhadra.

Currently, personnel from the districts have been temporarily deployed at these airports, but permanent personnel will be appointed following the new recruitment.
