Candidates Urge Yogi Govt To Issue Fresh Teacher Recruitment Notice Soon
In Prayagraj, candidates performed a sit-in protest in front of the Uttar Pradesh Recruitment Board, demanding fresh teacher recruitment notification from the Yogi Adityanath government. Protestors raised slogans to demand new vacancies.
The protesting candidates are asking to issue vacancies under the new education policy, as no notification has been issued by the government in the last 7 years, the representative said. “Students in the state are forced to sit even at night due to the negligence of the government”, he added.

Reportedly, the UP government is set to announce 1 lakh 93 thousand teacher recruitment soon to be filled in 3 stages. In every stage, nearly 65 thousand teachers will be recruited. As per the reports, the recruitment process for these posts will be completed by March 2026.
Out of these total posts, 81,276 vacancies lie in primary education, and over 1 lakh 25 thousand posts will be filled in Secondary education. The UP Selection Commission Board will fill these vacancies.
Since 2018, no teacher recruitment has been done in primary and secondary education by the board. In 2018, 1,37,500 vacancies were filled in two stages. In 2018, the Shiksha Mitras were removed, and the Supreme Court asked to fill the vacant posts as early as possible. However, the recruitment matter on 69,000 posts is still pending in the Supreme Court. Aspirants are demanding to issue the fresh notice for the teacher’s recruitment soon by the UP recruitment board.
