Is the later BPSC Vice Principal notice the same recruitment?
No. BPSC’s examination calendar dated February 17, 2026 lists Advertisement No. 40/2025 for 50 Vice Principal and equivalent ITI posts. That is a separate recruitment cycle; it did not reopen the 76-post 2024 application window. Check BPSC’s official site for current notices and recruitment status.
