Bihar may add agriculture teachers to TRE-4 recruitment
The Story in Brief
Bihar’s fourth-phase teacher recruitment (TRE-4) may expand to include agriculture teachers for the first time, but the process could face delays. Education Minister Mithilesh Tiwari is pushing to add 76 new posts for agriculture-horticulture teachers in 76 government schools, one in each district. The file has reached the chief minister’s secretariat, and a cabinet meeting on 28 October is expected to clear it.
The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) has already sent three supplementary requisitions for TRE-4, raising the total posts from an initial 25,857 to 33,388. The October 26 application deadline may be extended if new vacancies are added. The last teacher recruitment exam was held in July 2024 after the March 2024 paper was cancelled over leak allegations. Candidates who have missed the form or made errors may get another chance, though the exam schedule could slip.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The push to add agriculture teacher posts to TRE-4 opens a new subject in state schools but also risks delaying a recruitment process that has been stalled since 2024. Every addition of a supplementary requisition means fresh roster clearances, possible changes in the advertisement, and an extended wait for candidates who have already applied. The cabinet meeting on 28 October is the immediate deadline that will decide whether these 76 posts are formally added, and whether the application window itself is reopened.
