DC Peshawar Jobs 2026 – ETEA Project 684 Archived Recruitment
Computer Operator, Junior Scale Stenographer, Sub Engineer, Patwari and Driver vacancies advertised in June 2026 for the Office of the Deputy Commissioner, Peshawar.
A second official corrigendum also changed the applicant-area wording. The final corrected recruitment condition concerned qualifying permanent residents/natives of District Peshawar, rather than applicants generally from across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
An earlier version of this page described the recruitment as “KPK Police Communication Department Jobs.” That description has now been removed because it does not reflect the final corrected source position. The BPS-09 vacancy has also been corrected from “Bhandari” to Patwari.
Recruitment Snapshot
Source Verification & Official Corrigenda
Original Advertisement — INF(P)2720/26
The original advertisement listed five vacancy categories and carried reference INF(P)2720/26. Its opening wording referred to the Police Computer Bureau / Central Police Office.
That employer wording should not be treated as the final recruitment identity because it was subsequently corrected through an official corrigendum.
Employer Name Corrected to Deputy Commissioner Peshawar
Corrigendum 1 states that the Police Computer Bureau / Central Police Office wording printed at the beginning of advertisement INF(P)2720/26 was a printing error and was to be read as Deputy Commissioner Peshawar.
The remainder of the advertisement was stated to remain in force, subject to the later correction issued through Corrigendum 2.
District Peshawar Applicant Condition
Corrigendum 2 further corrected the recruitment wording for the Office of the Deputy Commissioner, Peshawar and specified the applicant area in relation to qualifying permanent residents/natives of District Peshawar.
For that reason, this revised archive does not describe the recruitment as generally open to permanent residents of the whole province.
ETEA Project 684
