Bihar Govt Prioritizes Locals: Domicile Policy for Teacher Recruitment
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar announced a new domicile policy for government teacher recruitment, giving preference to Bihar residents. The policy will be implemented starting with the TRE-4 examination scheduled for this year.
Specific reservation percentages under this new policy are yet to be officially declared. The government is expected to release detailed guidelines soon.
The move comes amid growing public demand for domicile-based quotas in government jobs and is widely seen as a response to the upcoming state elections.
This policy shift is likely to significantly impact the competitive landscape of teacher recruitment in Bihar, potentially altering the demographic profile of the state’s teaching workforce. The implications for aspirants from outside Bihar remain to be seen, and could spark further debate. The coming weeks will be crucial in observing the policy’s rollout and its effects on the state’s education sector.
