According to officials, the upcoming TRE-4 exam is likely to open up more than 1.20 lakh teaching positions, offering fresh opportunities for aspiring educators across the state. A formal notification regarding the recruitment process is expected to be released soon.

• TRE-1: 1.70 lakh teachers appointed
• TRE-2: 70,000 teachers appointed
• TRE-3: Out of 87,774 sanctioned vacancies, 66,603 posts filled

The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) will oversee the TRE-4 examination, which will cover appointments for primary, middle, secondary, and senior secondary school teachers.

Bihar Education Minister Sunil Kumar confirmed that the exam would be conducted before the Model Code of Conduct for the upcoming assembly elections is enforced. The state assembly elections are slated to take place later this year.

With this move, the Bihar government aims to strengthen the education sector while addressing the critical shortage of teachers in state-run schools.
