West Bengal Increases Age Limit for State Government Jobs

The West Bengal government has raised the upper age limit for state government jobs by five years. This revision affects Group A, B, C, and D posts through the West Bengal Public Service Commission and other recruitment channels. The decision is part of the government's commitment to broaden public employment access.

In a move to expand public employment opportunities, the West Bengal government announced an increase in the upper age limit for state government jobs by five years.

The revision affects Group A, B, C, and D posts recruited through the West Bengal Public Service Commission (WBPSC). The decision, effective from May 11, aligns with the government's sankalpa patra promises.

For positions recruited via channels outside the public service commission, the age limit is uniformly set at 45 years. The College Service Commission's current recruitment process for assistant professors will reflect these changes, extending application deadlines for new candidates.
