Expeditiously fill all State Government departmental vacancies
Bharatiya Janata Party · Gujarat Legislative Assembly Election 2022
Last updated 16 Oct 2026
What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will expeditiously fill all the departmental vacancies in the State Government.”
Our Assessment
Recruitment is active: a February 2026 Assembly reply reported over 30,000 appointment letters issued in the preceding year. Letters are not verified joinings. GARC's December 2025 review nevertheless documents persistent departmental vacancies and hiring cycles of one to three years; six of seven GPSC member posts remained vacant in February 2026. The 2024–33 recruitment calendar is a plan, not clearance of current vacancies. Timely filling across all departments remains unverified.
The reasoning behind the verdict
Why this assessment?
Reviewed
01 · Delivery status
Why partially done?
Appointments and recruitment activity show delivery, but persistent vacancies and slow hiring prevent completion of the universal commitment.
02 · Strength of evidence
Why medium confidence?
GARC provides primary evidence of systemic vacancies; PTI reports a dated Assembly reply. A current department-wide joining audit is unavailable.
What would help us reassess?
The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.
- Department-wise sanctioned, vacant and filled posts with vacancy age and actual joining dates
- Annual recruitment calendar delivery and outstanding appointment cases
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes the evidence.

Promise Timeline
An Assembly reply reported over 30,000 appointment letters awarded in the previous year, while six of seven GPSC member posts remained vacant. The announced 2024–33 recruitment calendar covered 2,10,582 posts; this is planned recruitment, not completed joinings.
