The West Bengal government is gearing up to recruit 13,421 teachers, with job notifications set to be issued post-Durga Puja, according to Education Minister Bratya Basu.

This announcement offers a ray of hope for teaching job aspirants in the state during the festive season, as it coincides with the recent release of the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) 2023 results. Of the 273,147 candidates, 2.47% successfully qualified.
