Respected Sirs / Madams,
Recently West Bengal State Govt. has regularized the jobs of the Contractual Dental Doctors by Cabinet Ministry's Decision. Normally recruitment is done in these permanent posts through State Public Service Commission.
The said Contractual Dental Doctors were recruited as Contractual by an interview committee other than State Public Service Commission. The State Cabinet Ministry took the decision of regularizing their services after 01/02 years as contractual. The matter is already materialized.
My query is - Is it fully legal ?

Respected Sudhir Kumar,
According to your query -
Q1. What do the recruitment rules for the
post indicate regarding selection
process?
Ans. The educational qualification for the post is 1st Class BDS. Everybody possess this qualification. Permanent Dental Doctors are normally recruited through State Public Service Commission.
Q2. Whether selection process has not taken
place?
Ans. A selection process was followed at the time of the recruitment as Contractual (renewable after every 6 months) Dental Doctors including open advt. in the 1st class daily newspapers, but not through State Public Service Commission. After the decision to regularize those Contractual Dental Doctors by the State Cabinet Ministry, no selection process performed. Straight away all those were regularised.
Please express your valued expert-opinion.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
JAYANTA KUMAR DAS.
