BPSC Reports No Applications for 218 Faculty Posts in Bihar Science Department
The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) reported receiving no applications for 218 advertised faculty positions, including heads of departments, in the state's Department of Science, Technology and Technical Education. Despite re-inviting applications, the vacancies across 16 disciplines at government polytechnic institutes remained unfilled. The BPSC has returned the requisitions to the department, indicating no further action at the commission level. This development is notable given Bihar's high population density and the usual demand for government jobs.
