Madhya Pradesh government today decided to sanction 3,215 posts of supervisors in the Women and Child Development department.
The state government also approved creation of 900-odd posts for the special courts to deal with the pendency of cases under the 13th Finance Commission.

The cabinet also decided to create 900 posts for the special courts to be set up till March 31, 2015 as per the recommendations of the 13th Finance Commission, to deal with the pendency of over five-year-old cases so that they can be disposed of at a faster pace, the sources said.
