Librarian Computer Instructor: Librarian and Computer Instructor posts increased, paves way for Food Safety Officers

Rajasthan is witnessing a wave of positive developments for its youth aspiring for government jobs. The state government has recently approved crucial changes in ongoing recruitment processes across various departments, opening up new avenues for thousands of unemployed candidates. Notably, the number of posts in Librarian and Computer Instructor recruitments has been increased, while the long-stalled appointments of Food Safety Officers have also received a green light. These decisions are expected to bring a significant positive shift in the employment landscape of the state, offering much-needed relief and opportunities.

Computer Instructor Recruitment: Approval for 2300 Posts

The Finance Department has given its nod for the recruitment of 2300 Computer Instructor posts, a decision that brings considerable relief to thousands of young individuals seeking employment in this specialized field. Out of these 2300 approved positions, 2000 are designated for Basic Computer Instructors, and 300 for Senior Computer Instructors, while this approval follows an initial proposal from the Education Department to the Finance Department, which had sought direct recruitment for 3427 Basic Computer Instructor posts and 315 Senior Computer Instructor posts.

While the Finance Department approved a lesser number of posts than originally proposed, this step is crucial for moving the recruitment process forward. The Education Department is now expected to promptly send the requisition for these posts to the Staff Selection Board, paving the way for the commencement of the recruitment process. Despite this approval, representatives of unemployed candidates, such as A. R. Dhangad and Vishal Jagid, have expressed their disappointment. They highlighted that their demand was for recruitment on 8000 posts, indicating that the Finance Department's approval falls Notably short of the actual requirement and the aspirations of the job seekers. This disparity underscores the ongoing need for more comprehensive recruitment drives to address the unemployment challenge effectively.

Librarian Recruitment Sees 100 Posts Added

However, the Finance Department, after deliberation, approved 100 posts against the demand for 250, while according to unemployed leader Ravindra Choudhary, the board had initially advertised a total of 548 posts for the Librarian Grade III - 2024 recruitment. These 548 posts included 500 for the Education Department and 48 for the Sanskrit Education Department, while the continuous demand from candidates for an increase in these posts has now been partially met with the addition of 100 positions, offering more opportunities to aspiring librarians. The Librarian recruitment, conducted by the Rajasthan Staff Selection Board, has also received a boost with an increase of 100 posts. The Finance Department has officially approved these additional positions, enhancing the total number of available vacancies, while for several days, unemployed candidates had been actively demanding an increase of 250 posts in this recruitment. This demand was also supported by various public representatives who had written to the Education Minister, urging an augmentation in the number of librarian positions.

Class IV Employee Recruitment: Details of Vacant Posts Sought

There is a strong possibility of an increase in posts for the Class IV employee recruitment, which was organized by the Staff Selection Board, while a total of 53749 posts were initially advertised for this recruitment, attracting over 21 lakh candidates who appeared for the examination. Recently, the government took a significant step by requesting detailed information on currently vacant Class IV employee positions from all departments, while this move strongly suggests that the government is actively considering an increase in the number of posts for this recruitment. Hanuman Kisan, President of the Rajasthan Unemployed Union, provided crucial insights into this matter, while he stated that there are 82154 sanctioned Class IV employee posts in the state. Given this substantial number of sanctioned positions, the Union firmly believes that more than 10,000 posts should be added to the current recruitment drive, while if the government accepts this demand, it would provide immense relief to millions of unemployed youth and offer them a valuable opportunity to join government service, thereby strengthening the administrative machinery at the grassroots level.

Food Safety Officers: 296 Selected Candidates Awaiting Immediate Appointment

In a significant development, 296 selected candidates for Food Safety Officer (FSO) posts, under the RPSC's FSO recruitment-2019 and FSO recruitment-2022, are set to receive their appointments soon, while the path for these long-pending appointments has finally been cleared. In an ongoing legal matter concerning these appointments, the court has provided substantial relief to the selected candidates, paving the way for their immediate placement. The selected candidates have articulated their stance, asserting that a 14-day induction training isn't a prerequisite before their appointment. They argue that such training can effectively be undertaken during their probation period, post-appointment. Consequently, there is a strong expectation from the government to direct officials of the Medical Department to expedite these appointments, while this directive would ensure that these selected candidates, who have waited for a considerable period, receive their postings without any further undue delay, allowing them to commence their crucial work in ensuring food safety standards across the state.

Broader Impact and Future Outlook

These collective decisions are expected to accelerate government recruitment processes and enhance transparency in Rajasthan, while the increase in posts in vital sectors like Librarian and Computer Instructor will help address the shortage of human resources in education and technical education. Also, the appointment of Food Safety Officers will Notably contribute to better implementation of food safety standards across the state. The potential increase in Class IV employee posts will improve administrative efficiency at the ground level. All these measures bring a new ray of hope for the unemployed youth of the state, providing them with an opportunity to secure their future. The government is now tasked with swiftly completing these processes and considering the remaining demands to ensure that maximum youth can gain employment.
