PRAYAGRAJ: The written examinations of Trained Graduate Teachers and Post Graduate Teachers (TGT/ PGT) recruitment exams-2021 aimed at filling up 15,198 vacant posts of assistant teachers and lecturers in 4,500 government-aided secondary schools will now be held in all districts of the state. Earlier these exams were to be held in just the divisional headquarters. The decision has been taken by Uttar Pradesh Secondary Education Service Selection Board (UPSESSB) given the steep dip in Covid-19 cases across the state, said Naval Kishore, deputy secretary, and controller of exams of UPSESSB.
The UPSESSB exam controller on June 30 had sent a missive to district magistrates of those 18 districts which were designated divisional headquarters in the state and asked them to submit a proposal regarding examination centres for the recruitment exams by July 7. However, now on July 3, he has once again sent a letter to all district magistrates of all 75 districts of the state asking them to submit a proposal for the exam centres for conducting these recruitment exams by July 10, shared UPSESSB officials aware of the development. The TGT Recruitment Exams-2021 is proposed to be held on August 7 and August 8 while the PGT Recruitment Exams-2021 is set to be held on August 17 and August 18. The TGT/PGT Recruitment Exams-2021 is to be conducted in the state following the recommendations made by the Paliwal Committee to ensure its fairness and transparency while also ensuring that no unfair means are used by anyone to qualify for the exams.
Following this, the duty allotment spelling out the examination hall of all invigilators would be declared on the very day of the exams and the question papers would be printed in a printing press located outside the state in district confidentiality.
A total of 15,198 posts including 12,603 posts of TGT and 2,595 posts of PGTs would be filled through these recruitment exams, officials said.
Though the UPSESSB has not released the total count of applicants, it is believed that over 10 lakh candidates have applied for these recruitment exams.
