Odisha to Fill 1,353 Vacant Teaching Posts Across State Universities The Odisha Higher Education Minister, Suryabanshi Suraj, has announced a significant recruitment drive to fill 1,353 teaching vacancies in state-run universities. The initiative, under the newly implemented Odisha University Amendment Act, aims to streamline the hiring process and strengthen the academic fabric of the state’s universities.
During a high-level meeting with Vice Chancellors, the Minister emphasized the urgency of the recruitment process and directed them to submit detailed proposals promptly. This effort is expected to enhance the quality of education in Odisha’s higher education institutions.
Additionally, the state government plans to fill over 2,000 non-teaching vacancies, although the recruitment for these roles will proceed under the existing guidelines, as no amendments have been made to these processes.
To further benefit university students, the government is collaborating with public sector companies to improve campus placements and expand employment opportunities. This move reflects the state’s commitment to fostering a robust academic and professional environment for its youth.
The swift completion of this recruitment process will mark a milestone in Odisha’s efforts to address the shortage of teaching staff and improve educational standards.
