Hazarika, Assam's Minister of Communication and Public Relations, announced on
Thursday that a total of 14,30,337 individuals are scheduled to compete in the
state's recruitment examinations for Grade III and Grade IV positions.

In a statement to the media
today, Hazarika stated that examinations will be held to fill 30,000 vacancies
in various sectors of the state government.

On Wednesday, Chief Minister
Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma had a virtual conference with the DCs and other
stakeholders and informed them of all required instructions for the
examinations, which will be placed on August 21, 28, and 11, 2022.

The minister urged everyone
concerned to avoid creating an agitated environment in response to some
organizations' involvement in protests against CAA particularly this time when
the government is holding recruitment exams for around 30,000 positions.

Although our ideologies may
differ, he said that it was inappropriate to stir up trouble during one of the
state government's biggest hiring campaigns by holding job seekers hostage.

Minister Hazarika added that
some leaders and organizations have misled the general public with twisted and
false information and comments during the 2019 protests against CAA. In the
guise of demonstrators at the time, some miscreants even caused extensive
property damage in Guwahati, especially Kalaskhetra.

Nonetheless, the people
recognized the reality and gave the current government a mandate, the minister
continued modestly.

When asked about applicants
from other states seeking state government jobs, the minister stated that
governments are always run under the laws of the Constitution as well as the
rules and regulations of the country, and that if they are eligible to apply
for a few positions, we should not stop them. The minister further stated that
people from Assam are working in other states under the same rules.
