Mann launches drive to fill over 26,000 vacancies in govt depts

Announcing a massive recruitment drive on the completion of 50 days of his government in office, chief minister Bhagwant Mann on Thursday reiterated its commitment to give jobs to the eligible candidates on the basis of their educational qualifications strictly according to the merit.

The CM said entire recruitment process will be accomplished in transparent and fair manner. “Any unfair practices in terms of recommendations or bribery will find no place in the ongoing recruitment drive,” he said in a video message on the day the government came out with advertisements on the recruitment for 26,454 vacancies in 25 different departments.

Mann said the state government would soon come up with more jobs to provide livelihood to enable them to lead a life with dignity. He also referred to several pro-people initiatives likely to be announced by his government in the budget.
