GUWAHATI: Around 50,000 youths of the state will get government jobs in a mega appointment letter distribution ceremony slated for May. It will be part of the one lakh jobs promised by the BJP in the run-up to the last assembly election in the state.
According to sources in the State Government, the appointment letter distribution will tentatively be on May 11 in the presence of Union Home Minister Amit Shah. The appointment letter distribution ceremony will serve two purposes: fulfilling the election promise of the ruling party and marking the completion of two years of the State Government led by Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
The 50,000 posts will include associate professors of colleges and third- and fourth-grade posts in various departments, such as Assam Police, the Health Department, etc.
Since the appointments will also include associate professors of colleges, the Directorate of Higher Education has asked all colleges to send their proposals for appointments to it by April 24, 2023. It will be the last appointment of college teachers and non-teaching staff based on recommendations from the college governing bodies. After this, a separate recruitment board will select college teachers and other staff members of colleges.
According to sources, the 50,000 posts include over 200 associate professors.
The recruitment commissions have already conducted examinations for the selection of third- and fourth-grade posts in various departments. The results of these posts may be declared on May 6, 2023.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma reviewed the selection processes for various posts in the presence of Minister Keshab Mahanta, Dr. Ranoj Pegu, and some senior government officials.
