Kolkata, Oct 6 (IANS) The results of the fresh recruitment examinations conducted by the West Bengal School Service Commission (WBSSC) to fill the vacant teaching posts after the Supreme Court canceled 25,753 school-jobs in the state earlier this year are likely to be declared by the end of the current month.
A commission insider said the written examination for recruitment of secondary and higher secondary teachers was conducted in two phases on September 14 and September 7. “Our aim is to declare the results by the end of the current month so that the interview process can start from next month,” said a commission insider.
As per the target set by WBSSC, the interview process will start from November, and the recruitment process will finally be completed by the end of the year. The recruitment process should be completed by December 31 this year as per the Supreme Court order.
Earlier this year, a division bench of the Supreme Court had upheld the earlier order of a division bench of the Calcutta High Court, which had canceled the entire panel of WBSSC for 2016, i.e. 25,753 school jobs.
The top court had also accepted the observation of the Calcutta High Court that the entire panel had to be canceled since the West Bengal government and the commission failed to differentiate unpolluted candidates from tainted candidates.
The opposition parties, as well as a section of the unpublished candidates, had been accusing the West Bengal government from the very beginning that the West Bengal government was deliberately avoiding separating the unpublished candidates from the tainted ones, so that those who got jobs after paying money could be protected.
Although a few days before the fresh recruitment examinations, the Commission had come out with a list of candidates who were specifically identified as tainted candidates, doubts were raised over the authenticity of the list.
