Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee recently announced in various meetings that recruitment in the police force will take place very soon. A proposal for appointments had also been sent from Lalbazar. Now, Nabanna has approved that proposal. It has reached Lalbazar, and from this, it has been confirmed that 500 home guards will be recruited in Kolkata Police. This news has now become public, which is great news for employment opportunities.

According to Lalbazar sources, the recruitment will take place at the beginning of this financial year. Meanwhile, police sources indicate that 10 percent of the posts in this recruitment will be reserved for civic volunteers already serving in Kolkata Police and the state police.
