The Himachal Pradesh government has announced plans to recruit 2800 teachers for government schools across the state by the 2025-26 academic session. This recruitment drive will include Junior Basic Teachers (JBT), Trained Graduate Teachers (TGT) and Craft and Vocational (C&V) teachers, the process of which will be handled by the Board of School Education, Dharamshala.
The decision has been taken in response to the delay in the ongoing recruitment processes with the State Selection Commission, Hamirpur. To ensure a quicker and more efficient recruitment process, the Directorate of Education has sent a formal recommendation to the Board of School Education, requesting them to take charge of the recruitment.
Education Minister Rohit Thakur said discussions are underway with the board to start the direct recruitment process as soon as possible. “Our aim is to start recruitment expeditiously and fill 2800 teaching posts in government schools. A final decision will be taken soon,” Thakur said.
The recruitment rules have been updated to accommodate this change. New recruitment and promotion guidelines have been introduced to ease the process. According to the education minister, about 2500 teachers have already been appointed on a batch-wise basis for JBT and TGT posts, but additional changes were needed due to previous teacher appointments through school management committees.
Officials have confirmed that consultations have been held with the law and finance departments to ensure compliance with the rules, and the new rules are expected to smoothen the process. This recruitment drive is being seen as a significant step towards addressing the shortage of teachers and improving the quality of education in government schools across the state.
