Itanagar, Oct 28: Chief Minister Pema Khandu emphasised the government’s vision of a fair, transparent, and merit-driven recruitment system.
Speaking after felicitating successful candidates of the Combined Higher Secondary Level Examination (CHSLE) 2025 and presenting appointment letters at an event here on Tuesday, Khandu lauded the Arunachal Pradesh Staff Selection Board (APSSB) for conducting the CHSLE 2025 in record time - completing the entire recruitment process, from advertisement to final recommendation, within three months, setting a new benchmark for administrative efficiency and integrity.
More than 21,000 candidates appeared across 12 centers and 113 venues, reflecting the growing trust of Arunachalee youth in the transparent system established under the APSSB framework. Out of them, 64 candidates were selected purely on merit. Notably, seven APST candidates secured positions under the unreserved category, exemplifying the state’s rising talent and competitiveness, an official statement from CMO said.
The chief minister highlighted that the establishment of the APSSB was one of the most significant governance reforms undertaken by his govt.
“The Board was created not by chance but by choice, through an Act passed by the state legislative assembly, with the moral commitment to end corruption and favoritism in recruitment,” he said while reaffirming the motto of the Board, “Equal Opportunity for All”.
Praising the APSSB for introducing the Answer Key Challenge System for the first time, he said this initiative reflects the government’s culture of transparency and accountability.
“Transparency is not just a process, it is a culture we are building in Arunachal Pradesh,” Khandu said.
Addressing the newly appointed candidates, Khandu urged them to uphold the highest standards of honesty and dedication.
The chief minister reiterated his government’s commitment to empowering the youth through regular, transparent recruitment drives by APSSB and the Arunachal Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC). He also underlined ongoing investments in skill development, entrepreneurship, and sports to create multiple avenues for youth employment and growth.
“Through institutions like APSSB, we are shaping a future where merit is celebrated, hard work is rewarded, and honesty is honored. In the next 10-15 years, the Arunachal government will have an efficient, capable and meritorious work force,” the chief minister added.
Also present were ministers Balo Raja, Kento Jini, Biyuram Wahge and Dasanglu Pul. PTI CORR
