Bihar Minister's University Appointment Held Over Name Discrepancy, Commission Review SoughtPrevious

Bihar's government has asked the State University Service Commission to reconsider withholding Rural Works Department Minister Ashok Choudhary's appointment as an assistant professor at Pataliputra University. The decision stems from discrepancies in his name on educational certificates versus his election affidavit. State Education Minister Sunil Kumar stated the case was sent back for the commission's opinion, emphasizing the commission's authority over appointments and the government's focus on broader educational development and enforcing the Right to Education Act.
