According to media reports, the state government has cleared this recruitment and preparations are in the final stages. This recruitment process can start from July 2025, under which 44,000 home guard posts will be filled.

How much salary does UP Home Guard get?

Home Guard jawans are paid daily on duty basis in Uttar Pradesh. Currently, home guards are being paid daily from ₹ 670 to ₹ 700 daily. If a young man performs duty for about 25 days a month, then his monthly salary is made from ₹ 16,750 to ₹ 17,500.
