Goalpara (Assam) Govt Jobs 2026

Goalpara, one of Assam’s oldest and most historically significant revenue districts, lies on the south bank of the Brahmaputra near the Meghalaya border and is known for its diverse ethnic composition — with Assamese, Bengali, Bodo, Rabha, Koch-Rajbongshi, and Muslim communities forming a complex social mosaic. The district headquarters at Goalpara town is one of the few places in Assam with both a strong British administrative legacy and an active frontier economy shaped by the Meghalaya hills to the south and the Brahmaputra river to the north. Goalpara covers approximately 1,824 square kilometres and has an economy centred on agriculture, fishing, the stone quarrying industry along the Meghalaya border, and government service. The Manas and Pobitora wildlife corridors influence the district’s ecology, and the nearby Laokhowa Wildlife Sanctuary adds a forest department employment dimension.
