MINISTER OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT

(b) The details of the total recruitment made (including SC/ST candidates) during the last three years are as under:-

Tentatively, 5206 vacancies of teaching staff are to be filled up during the year 2020 through direct recruitment out of which 779 and 387 vacancies are earmarked for SCs and STs respectively.

(c) The category-wise break-up of the vacancies of teaching posts including Principals, PGTs, TGTs and Lab Assistants are annexed.

(d) to (f) Filling up of vacancies is a continuous process and action is taken from time to time as per the provisions of the relevant recruitment rules. As the process of filling up of vacancies involves various methods of recruitment such as promotion, Limited Departmental Examination, Direct Recruitment etc. and takes time, no specific time frame for filling up of vacant posts can be given at this stage.

Teachers are also engaged on contractual basis for temporary duration by KVS to ensure that the teaching-learning process is not hampered. Directions have also been issued to autonomous organizations including KVS from time to time, for reviewing their vacancies and for taking prompt action for filling up of vacant posts in the Vidyalayas.
