Meanwhile, the government said the merit list is still short of candidates for 430 posts in the PWD and ex-servicemen categories (non-gazetted) due to non-availability of eligible candidates.
Social Welfare and Social Education Minister Tinku Roy on Thursday said, “Posts like pump operators, for divyangjan and ex-servicemen and others could not be filled up due to non-availability of eligible candidates.” Roy added that the viva examinations for the Group D posts in various departments would be conducted at the earliest.
Former education minister Ratan Lal Nath said advertisements to fill up a total of 2,410 Group C posts of which the JRBT recommended 1,980 candidates for the different departments were issued.
