Assam News: The Assam cabinet, led by Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, has decided to create a new graduate teacher (Mathematics) position in state schools. The government has reportedly approved 1,766 new positions for this role. The decision was made during a cabinet meeting at Lok Sewa Bhawan in Guwahati on Friday.

According to ANI, the Assam cabinet also approved the recruitment of 221 3rd-grade and 4th-grade positions in 11 polytechnic institutes and two engineering colleges across the state.

"We have asked the governing bodies of these institutions to conduct recruitment for these posts and the salary against the said posts will be given from the state budget, without the need for outsourcing," Himanta Biswa Sarma said.

The state cabinet has also decided to increase the council constituency numbers of Moran and Matak Autonomous Councils. "The current members of Moran and Matak Autonomous Councils are 22 and the state cabinet has decided to increase the council constituencies of both councils from 22 to 27," Sarma added.

CM Himanta Biswa further said that the state cabinet has decided on the inclusion of 16 Bodo community-dominated villages in Sonitpur and Biswanath districts in the Bodoland Territorial Region (BTR).

Along with this, the Assam government has given in-principle approval to reserve 25 per cent seats in private vernacular medium schools for meritorious students from low-income families. "The state cabinet has decided to seek public opinion on the proposal and plans to implement the scheme from the next academic year," Sarma said during a press conference.

The Chief Minister said that schools will hold their entrance exams to identify talented students from low-income families. This plan will only apply to certain well-known vernacular medium schools, such as those that teach in Assamese, Bodo, and Bengali. However, it will not include English medium schools.
