Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma highlighted the emphasis on transparent and merit-based recruitment by the BJP-led state government. The government’s efforts, including the Assam Direct Recruitment Examination (ADRE), have restored public trust in job distribution. At an event in Guwahati, 6,347 Grade-III candidates received appointment letters, bringing the total government job placements to 1,56,679.
Chief Minister Sarma underscored that the ADRE mechanism ensures fairness, transparency, and equal opportunity in appointments, aiming to eliminate middlemen and corrupt practices. He emphasized that every recruitment through ADRE is solely based on merit, with a litigation-free process, showcasing its credibility. The Chief Minister mentioned that the remaining recruitment under ADRE will be finalized by February 10, with other states considering Assam’s model as a best practice.
In previous recruitment phases, over 24,000 candidates were selected through ADRE, covering Grade-III and Grade-IV posts. The recent phase saw 6,347 candidates qualifying for various government departments after document verification. Chief Minister Sarma congratulated the new employees, urging them to uphold integrity, combat corruption, and prioritize quality service delivery, especially for marginalized communities.
The Chief Minister called upon the appointees to embrace the ethos of “Team Assam,” foster collaboration within the administration, and commit to continuous learning for enhanced efficiency and innovation in public service. The ceremony, attended by Ministers, senior officials, and dignitaries, marked a significant milestone in Assam’s recruitment process.
