In a bid to improve governance, Bihar government has decided to form two new state services—Bihar Revenue Service and Bihar Rural Development Service.
Official sources said that the two new proposed services are set to end the shortage of the Block Development Officers (BDOs) and Circle Officers (COs) in the state." It will also speed up the disposal of land related cases, a big challenge for the government," officials said.
Cabinet Coordination Department Principal Secretary Girish Shankar said that the state cabinet approved to form two new state services. The recruitment to the services will be made through the combined competitive examinations conduct by the Bihar Public Service Commission.
The successful candidates of Bihar Revenue Service will be appointed as COs and those who qualify Bihar Rural Development Service will be appointed BDOs.
In another move, the state government decided to restructure the Bihar Administrative Service (BAS) that will enable the state administrative cadre officers to be appointed directly to the post of sub-divisional officers. It is likely to provide more opportunity to BAS officers to get into the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) cadre in the state.link

First swine flu case confirmed in Bihar
Bihar has reported its first swine flu case with a senior Indian Administrative Service (IAS) official testing positive for the viral disease, officials said here Tuesday.
The official, whose identity was not disclosed by the state government, is currently undergoing treatment at a private nursing home here.
“His condition is stable and he is showing signs of recovery after being administered the swine flu antidote Tamiflu,” an official of the state health department said.
His samples were sent to the New Delhi based National Institute of Communicable Diseases(NICD).
Health department sources said the official could have been infected in London from where he returned last week.
The influenza A (H1N1) virus has infected more than 1,900 patients in the country and killed 25.
