As of now, over 5.16 lakh government jobs have been filled, with the recruitment process for an additional 1.99 lakh positions completed. The government plans to distribute appointment letters for these positions within the next three months.The employment drive encompasses various departments, including education, health, and infrastructure. Notably, the Bihar State Higher Education Council (BSHEC) has announced recruitment for positions such as accountants and assistants, with salaries reaching up to ₹80,000.
