What is the difference between a Zila Sainik Board and a Rajya Sainik Board?

A Rajya Sainik Board operates at the state level and coordinates all Zila Sainik Boards within that state. A Zila Sainik Board functions at the district level and directly assists individual ex-servicemen and their families.

How do I contact my nearest Zila Sainik Welfare Officer?

Find your state and district in the directory above, and use the listed phone number or email to get in touch. Call ahead before visiting in person, since posts are periodically transferred or left vacant.

What services does a Zila Sainik Board provide?

Pension grievances, resettlement and re-employment guidance, education scholarships for dependents, medical and financial assistance schemes, and issuance of ex-servicemen certificates.

Are these contact details guaranteed to be current?

No. Government contact numbers, emails, and appointed officers change periodically. Independently verify critical details before relying on them for anything urgent, especially since several posts are currently listed as vacant and may be filled or reassigned by the time you reach out.

What do I do if my district isn't listed here?

If your district isn't covered in this directory, contact your state's Rajya Sainik Board directly — they can point you to your nearest functioning Zila Sainik Board or the officer currently handling your district on additional charge.

Who should I contact if the listed ZSWO post is "Vacant"?

Contact the same office using the listed phone number or email regardless — vacant posts are usually handled on additional charge by a nearby district's officer or a designated official, and the office itself remains functional even without a dedicated ZSWO in place.

Zila Sainik Board Contact Directory 2026: All States

Zila Sainik Board contact directory 2026 with phone numbers, addresses, and emails for every district office across India, state by state.

If you’re an ex-serviceman, war widow, dependent, or defence pensioner trying to track down the right office, this Zila Sainik Board contact directory pulls together the district-level welfare offices across India in one place — phone numbers, addresses, and email IDs included. Government contact pages for these offices are scattered, outdated, or buried in old PDFs, so this is meant to save you the hunt.

What Is a Zila Sainik Board

A Zila Sainik Board (ZSB), also called a District Sainik Welfare Office, is the district-level body under the Kendriya Sainik Board (Ministry of Defence) responsible for the welfare and resettlement of ex-servicemen, war widows, war-disabled soldiers, and their dependents. Every district with a meaningful defence-connected population has a Zila Sainik Welfare Officer (ZSWO) — your single point of contact for pension issues, resettlement guidance, education grants, medical assistance, and other welfare schemes.

Above the district level sits the Rajya Sainik Board (State Sainik Board), which coordinates all the Zila Sainik Boards within a state. If your query is broader than one district, or your local ZSB post is vacant, the Rajya Sainik Board is your next point of contact.

Who This Directory Is For

Ex-servicemen (Army, Navy, Air Force) seeking resettlement or welfare assistance
War widows and dependents applying for pension or grants
Serving personnel planning their post-retirement paperwork in advance
Students seeking ESM-quota education benefits and scholarships
Anyone researching district-level defence welfare administration in India

How to Use This List

The directory below is organised state by state, then district by district. Each entry gives you the officer’s name and designation (or “Vacant” where the post is currently unfilled), the office address, phone number(s), and email ID where available. Government contact details change over time — postings rotate, numbers get reassigned — so call or email ahead before a formal visit, especially for anything urgent.

What Services a Zila Sainik Board Actually Provides

Beyond just being a contact point, your local ZSB handles:

Pension grievances and follow-ups
Resettlement and re-employment guidance for recently retired personnel
Education scholarships and grants for dependents
Medical and financial assistance schemes
Issuance of various ex-servicemen certificates and documentation

If you’re not sure whether your issue belongs at the district, state, or central level, your Zila Sainik Board is the right starting point — they’ll redirect you to the Rajya Sainik Board or Kendriya Sainik Board if your matter needs to go higher up.

If you’re also managing other defence family paperwork, our coverage of the ZSB dependent card is worth checking alongside this directory.
