# WBPSC expects 16,000 vacancies for ICDS Supervisor 2026 2026-10-02T23:57:24+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The West Bengal Public Service Commission (WBPSC) is expected to announce around 16,000 vacancies for the post of ICDS Supervisor (Female Only) under the Department of Women & Child Development & Social Welfare for the 2026 recruitment cycle. The selection process includes Prelims, Mains and a Viva-Voce (Personality Test). Appointed candidates will receive a monthly salary of Rs 27,000. Eligibility requires a Bachelor's degree from a recognised university, female gender, Indian citizenship, and ability to read, write and speak Bengali (except for candidates whose mother tongue is Nepali). The age limit is expected to be 18 to 39 years for Supervisor posts, with relaxations for SC/ST (5 years) and OBC (3 years) as per West Bengal government norms. The application mode is online and the official website is www.psc.wb.gov.in. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The 16,000 figure is stated as expected, not confirmed, meaning the actual vacancy count and category-wise breakup will only be known when the detailed advertisement PDF is released. Candidates who have not completed the One-Time Registration (OTR) on the WBPSC portal must do so before the application window opens, as the same registration ID will be used for this recruitment. The key unresolved detail is the application start and closing date, which the notification is yet to specify. ## Coverage - careerpower.in Presents recruitment facts in a straightforward guide format This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
