YSRCP Stir Over Mega DSC Serves No Purpose: TDP MLC
Some people in a state were very upset about how teachers were being chosen for their jobs.
They stopped eating food to show they were unhappy, which is called a hunger strike.
A leader from a different political group said the protest is not helpful.
He said it only helps people who sell black ribbons and rent equipment for events.
He said the government already put all the lists of chosen teachers on its website.
He said the government checked every sports certificate very carefully.
Some people said teachers were chosen unfairly, but the leader said that is not true.
He said teachers were chosen based on how well they did, while following rules that help certain groups.
The government hired 15,941 teachers, which is a very big number.
Another round of hiring is planned for October.
TDP Nellore District President and MLC B Ravichandra said YSRCP's hunger strike over the Mega DSC teacher recruitment serves no purpose.
Ravichandra alleged the stir only benefits vendors selling black ribbons and hiring event equipment.
He noted government officials issued comprehensive clarifications on three occasions and posted candidate merit and selection lists on the official state website.
Ravichandra rejected as baseless claims that candidates who did not appear for the TET exam received sports quota teacher posts, citing state-level committee scrutiny and direct verification with federations and universities.
Education Minister Nara Lokesh filled a record 15,941 teacher vacancies through the Mega DSC, and the state is preparing another DSC recruitment drive in October.
