Addressing a press conference, Harish Rao said the Revanth Reddy government must add 2,000 posts to Group II and 3,000 posts to Group III as promised. “There must be a two-month gap between these exams but a District Selection Committee (DSC) test has been announced for July, and Group II exam is scheduled for August 7 and 8,” Harish Rao said.
With respect to the DSC exams for teacher recruitment, he said it must be held for 25,000 vacant posts and questioned why recruitment has been announced only for 11,000. “For Group I, the ratio for selection for mains must be 1:100 instead of 1:50,” he said.
He demanded that the government must implement the promised `4,000 pension per month and give two old-age Aasara pensions in each family as promised. Salaires to ASHA and Anganwadi workers were not being paid and the dues must be cleared immediately, he said.
Harish Rao said the two Union ministers from Telangana, G. Kishan Reddy, and Bandi Sanjay Kumar, must ensure that the interests of students who appeared for the NEET from the state are protected.
