Bihar ASHA Worker Recruitment 2026: The recruitment process for ASHA workers is likely to begin soon across all districts of Bihar. According to local reports, the State Health Department has issued instructions to all districts regarding this. Consequently, it is anticipated that an official notification for the recruitment of ASHA workers in the state will be released shortly. A total of 21,000 ASHA workers will be recruited under this initiative; this includes 14,409 workers for rural areas and 7,289 for urban areas.

In addition to ASHA workers, 1,104 ASHA Facilitators are also to be recruited. This recruitment process has not taken place for a considerable time. Currently, 98,598 ASHA workers are active across Bihar. In the letter sent to the districts regarding the recruitment, the State Health Department noted that the current pace of recruitment is quite slow. According to a report by *Live Hindustan*, the department has directed all districts to complete the recruitment of ASHA workers within two months. Candidates who have passed the 10th standard will be eligible to apply for this recruitment drive. Unconfirmed sources indicate that the application process for ASHA workers will be conducted in offline mode.

**Recruitment of 1,104 ASHA Facilitators (Supervisors)**

Along with ASHA workers, ASHA Facilitators (supervisors) will also be recruited. Vacancies for these positions have already been announced, with 1,104 posts to be filled across the state. ASHA Facilitators are responsible for monitoring the work of ASHA workers and preparing reports on their performance. Recruitment for both ASHA workers and ASHA Facilitators has been stalled for several months across all districts of the state.

**Designation as 'Urban' Facilitators**

In areas that have been upgraded to *Nagar Panchayat*, *Nagar Parishad*, or *Nagar Nigam* (Municipal Corporation) status, ASHA Facilitators (supervisors) will now be appointed under the 'urban' category.
