The BPSC TRE 4.0 Notification 2026 (Teacher Recruitment Examination Phase 4.0) by the Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) is for massive recruitment of school teachers in Bihar government schools. As of March 07, 2026 (evening IST), the detailed official notification PDF has not yet been released on the BPSC website (https://bpsc.bih.nic.in). However, key details have been announced via the BPSC Exam Calendar 2026 (released February 17, 2026):
- Total Vacancies: 46,595 (announced; for Primary, Middle, Secondary, and Senior Secondary teachers across Education Department and SC/ST Welfare Department).
- Exam Dates: 22nd to 27th September 2026 (offline OMR-based exam, multiple shifts).
- Notification Release: Expected soon in March 2026 (some sources say detailed advt. in March; earlier projections mentioned February 18, but not out yet).
- Apply Online Link: Not active yet. Applications will open shortly after the detailed notification (likely March 2026; check official site for OTR/registration and form link).
Important Note: The “Apply Link Active” claim in some social media/unofficial sources is premature—no online application portal is live as of now. Always verify on https://bpsc.bih.nic.in (under “Online Application” or “Notifications”). Requisitions for these posts have been received, and the process is in progress. For Ludhiana/Punjab candidates, this is Bihar state-specific (eligible for all Indians meeting criteria, but postings in Bihar govt. schools).
