The 2025 recruitment exercise marks a significant step toward achieving these goals. By filling vacant positions and expanding operations, the NSDC aims to strengthen its capacity to monitor, regulate, and enhance sugar production across the nation.

The Council’s focus on hiring from host communities further demonstrates its commitment to fostering development in areas directly impacted by sugar production activities.
