Repeated delays in the Mega DSC recruitment process and the recent announcement to appoint “Vidya volunteer teachers” should be a betrayal of unemployed youth awaiting permanent jobs.
Speaking to the media MLC and YSR Congress senior leader, Parvathareddy Chandrasekhar Reddy criticized Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu for betraying unemployed youth with repeated delays in the Mega DSC recruitment process.
Naidu had promised the recruitment of 16,347 teacher posts in June 2024, but the notification was repeatedly postponed under unfounded pretexts. Despite efforts by YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s government to conduct TET exams and release results promptly, Naidu’s administration failed to issue the Mega DSC notification, disappointing job aspirants.
He also condemned Naidu’s move to appoint Vidya volunteer teachers for vacant positions, which raised concerns about the legality and permanence of such appointments. Jagan’s government has invested Rs. 73,417 crore for education reforms, such as English medium education, CBSE affiliations, and modernized infrastructure, filling 14,219 teacher posts that had been vacant in Naidu’s term.
The MLC highlighted Naidu’s failure to address unemployment, noting that his administration provided only 10,313 jobs between 2014-2019, compared to the 31 lakh jobs created by Jagan’s government, including 2,13,662 government jobs.
He also criticized Naidu for misleading voters with false promises of employment and for undermining the dignity of teachers. In contrast, Jagan’s government prioritized employee welfare with interim relief and a 23 percent pay revision in its first cabinet meeting.
He urged the public to recognize Naidu’s deceptive practices and called on the government to prioritize permanent teacher recruitment, rather than relying on temporary solutions that undermine the education system.
