Govt relaxed upper age limit by 2 years for job aspirants
In an important policy decision the Tripura government on Monday decided to extend the upper age limit for the government job aspirants by two years. The relaxation was, however, given for one year only. It will remain in force till June 30, 2023.
The relaxation of upper age limit was felt necessary as there were delays in extending government jobs to the unemployed due to Covid pandemic.
A government press release said, many of the unemployed youths might have already crossed the upper age limit stipulated for government job while the recruitments could not be undertaken due to Covid related problems.
The state government went for the upper age relaxation , it is believed, was not only for the delay in recruitment, but also keeping in mind the next assembly elections- which would be held in February 2023.
With the relaxation- a political masterstroke – the ruling parties were expected to sway a great number of unemployed youths in its favour before the polls.
