This notification opens 1,145 permanent posts in West Bengal‘s land records department, a large batch that will fill vacancies accumulated across districts. Candidates have until 9 November to apply online, but the examination date remains unspecified, leaving the actual hiring timeline uncertain. The detailed reservation break-up reveals reserved seats for SC, ST, OBC, EWS, PwBD, sportspersons and ex-servicemen, though most of these quotas apply only to West Bengal residents. Applicants from other states can compete only for unreserved vacancies. The edit window from 11 to 16 November offers a brief correction period after the deadline. The key open question is when the Commission will announce the exam schedule.
