The last date to apply for Madhya Pradesh's Chief Minister Fellow (CM Fellow) recruitment has been corrected to 11 November on the portal, after discrepancies raised questions. Earlier, the portal displayed a deadline of 6 November, while internal instructions mentioned 11 November, 6 pm.
Atal Bihari Vajpayee Good Governance and Policy Analysis Institute (AIGGPA) director Dr Rajeev Dixit said the date has been corrected. He added that the institute's experts are involved in the process, but the entire recruitment is run through the Centre for Entrepreneurship Development (SADMAP). AIGGPA has sought an explanation from SADMAP over the date error.
The recruitment is for vacant posts in nine districts under the Chief Minister Young Professional for Development Programme (CM-YPDP). The portal initially showed 11 November, then was changed to 6 November, before being corrected back. Earlier, contractual and outsourced workers' organisations had raised allegations of irregularities in the selection process.
The date discrepancy on the portal raises questions about coordination between AIGGPA and SADMAP, the agency running the recruitment. Candidates who relied on the earlier 6 November deadline may have missed applying, and the sudden reversal does not clarify how many were affected. AIGGPA has asked SADMAP for an explanation, but no timeline for a response or any penalty has been named. With past allegations of nepotism and irregular selection still unresolved, the portal error adds to concerns about transparency in the process.
