NeGD Non-Technical Internship (Winter Programme 2026) — 12 interns

The National e-Governance Division (NeGD), Digital India Corporation, Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, Government of India, has invited applications for its Non-Technical Internship (Winter Programme 2026). Please note clearly: this is an INTERNSHIP, not a government job. Interns get a token remuneration, a certificate on completion, and no claim to any regular post.

Internship details

There are 12 intern positions: Programme Management 5, Awareness and Communication 2, Capacity Building 2, Technology Management 2 and Project Appraisal 1. The minimum duration is two months, extendable by one month, for a total of up to three months. The tentative internship period is December to February, with extension up to March. Every intern has a Mentor from NeGD, preferably the head of the division or project.

The token remuneration is Rs. 15,000 per month, paid only after completion of the full tenure on submission of a report duly accepted by NeGD, subject to satisfactory performance certified by the Mentor. No HRA or other allowance is printed in the notice. Certificates are issued on completion.

Who can apply

Students from recognised universities in India who meet any one of these conditions: at least 60% marks in the last held degree or certificate examination and education completed under the 10+2+3 pattern; or pursuing the pre-final or final year of Engineering under the 10+2+4 pattern; or pursuing the pre-final or final year of a Diploma or Certificate course; or pursuing the pre-final or final year of an integrated or dual degree under the 10+2+5 pattern. Qualifications may be relaxed in deserving cases based on NeGD's need, with prior approval of the competent authority. Meeting the minimum qualification does not guarantee an internship; candidates with exposure in the intended area, a good academic background and higher qualifications are given preference.

Applications MUST be sponsored or forwarded by the institution where the applicant is currently enrolled or has recently passed out — applications not so sponsored do not meet the requirement. Selection is by shortlisting based on marks in the qualifying degree, followed by interviews or the judgement of the internal selection committee as per NeGD's requirements. Weightage is given to the top 100 colleges per year as per the NIRF ranking.

Fee and age

No application fee and no age limit are stated in the notice. Do not assume either.
