According to BPSC circular, the applications for the BCS 43rd batch will be taken till January 31 this year. The application has been accepted from December 30 last year. Under the BCS 43rd batch, the BPSC will recruit some 1,814 officials for different cadres including admin, police and health. At the same time, recruiting 2,000 more physicians of general and dental categories, the BPSC also floated circular of the BCS 42nd (special) batch. |
