Guwahati, May 28 (SocialNews.XYZ) Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Thursday said that the state government has already started preparing a roadmap to fulfil its promise of providing two lakh government jobs in the coming years.
In a post shared on social media platform X, Sarma asserted that there would be “no time to rest” for the government as it moves ahead with implementing key poll promises after returning to power.
“There’s no time to rest in our quest to deliver on our promises,” the Chief Minister wrote.
He stated that his team has already begun identifying vacancies across departments and preparing a detailed plan to ensure the recruitment process is carried out in a systematic manner.
“My team is already at work to identify vacancies, create the roadmap, map out departments and bodies and chalk out the timeframe to deliver on the commitment of two lakh government jobs,” Sarma said in the post.
Along with the statement, the Chief Minister also shared a graphic titled “Mission 2 Lakh Govt Jobs – Plan in Motion”, outlining the government’s strategy for the recruitment drive.
According to the roadmap shared by Sarma, the government will first prepare a comprehensive recruitment plan and identify vacancies likely to arise over the next five years.
The plan also includes assessment of sanctioned posts and mapping of opportunities across departments, autonomous institutions, semi-government bodies, missions and societies.
The BJP-led government had made large-scale employment generation one of its major promises during the recently concluded Assembly elections in Assam.
Political observers believe the announcement is aimed at reinforcing the government’s commitment to employment generation amid growing demand for jobs among the youth in the state.
Since assuming office in 2021, the Himanta Biswa Sarma-led government has repeatedly highlighted recruitment drives conducted in various departments including police, education, health and administrative services.
The Chief Minister has earlier maintained that the recruitment process in Assam would continue in a transparent manner and merit would remain the key criterion for appointments.
The latest announcement comes soon after the BJP returned to power in Assam with a strong mandate in the Assembly elections.
