KEA Extends Land Surveyor Recruitment Application Deadline to August 20
The Karnataka Examinations Authority is a group that helps the state government hire people for different jobs.
They want to hire 560 people to work as Land Surveyors.
Land Surveyors measure land so the government knows exactly where properties are.
First, the deadline to apply was going to end soon.
But the rules changed about what education you need to become a Land Surveyor.
Because the rules changed, the government decided to give people more time to apply.
Now, people can send their applications until August 20, 2026.
People can pay the application fee until August 21, 2026.
You can apply online through the KEA website if you meet the new rules.
This gives more people a chance to apply for the job.
The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) extended the application deadline for 560 Land Surveyor posts in Karnataka to August 20, 2026.
The last date for payment of application fees is now August 21, 2026.
The extension follows an amendment to the minimum educational qualifications requested by the Department of Land Survey, Revenue System and Land Records.
KEA Executive Director H. Prasanna IAS confirmed the revised deadline in a public update.
Revised eligibility allows Engineering/Technology degree or AMIE holders, B.Sc graduates with Mathematics or Physics, B.Sc Honours graduates, and AICTE-recognised Engineering/Technology diploma holders to apply.
