The manifesto highlights promised to fill all vacant teacher posts through a Mega District Selection Committee recruitment within six months. The government did conduct a Mega DSC: a notification for 11,062 teacher posts was issued in early 2024, the examination was held in mid-2024, and appointment letters were distributed in October 2024, with the process reported as completed in around six months. However, the promise was to fill all vacant posts, and the number recruited fell short of the total teacher vacancies in the state, which were reported to exceed 17,000, with a further DSC notification for another set of posts issued in 2025, indicating that vacancies persisted. Substantial and timely delivery of a large recruitment round, short of clearing all vacancies, supports a partial verdict. Budget: recruitment proceeds through departmental establishment budgets; the appointments made indicate real utilisation.
