# Bengal CM Adhikari promises new recruitment policy, blasts past scams 2026-08-10T23:54:06+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Saturday announced a fresh recruitment policy modelled on central systems, alleging that corruption under the previous regime had damaged the state's image. Speaking at the 19th Rozgar Mela organised by Eastern Railway at Sealdah, he said a symposium of all state recruitment organisations would be held on June 6, and a Bill to overhaul procedures would be introduced in the next Budget session. Adhikari cited teacher and municipal recruitment scams and the cancellation of nearly 26,000 jobs after court intervention. He proposed reforms such as providing OMR carbon copies to candidates, reducing viva voce weightage, publishing scores online, and implementing the 100-point reservation roster. Union Minister Sukanta Majumdar said not a single corruption allegation had been recorded in the Rozgar Mela under Prime Minister Modi. ## Coverage - millenniumpost.in Tags: Eastern Railway, reservation roster, Rozgar Mela, Suvendu Adhikari, teacher scam, West Bengal recruitment Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/bengal-cm-adhikari-promises-new-recruitment-policy-blasts-past-scams/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
