About 100 existing madrasas will be upgraded to the Higher Secondary stage, said Minister for Minority Development Abdus Sattar.
This will create about 2,000 teaching and 300 non-teaching posts in the madrasas across the state.
The posts will be filled up by next year. A separate panel called the West Bengal Madrasas Service Commission has been formed to recruit teachers for the madrasas.
“The creation of new posts has been done to minimise the teacher-student ratio in the madrasas in the state,” said Sattar.
There will be no reservations for SC, ST and OBC categories in the vacancies created in the madrasas of the state, as the institutions falls in the category of minority institutions.
The West Bengal Madrasas Service
Commission declared the results of a recently conducted examination for the recruitment of the teachers. About 1,200 candidates qualified as teachers for 500 madrasas in the state.
