YSRCP Accuses Naidu Government of Suppressing DSC Exposure
The YSRCP says social media accounts discussing alleged problems in a teacher recruitment process were blocked.
The party blames the Andhra Pradesh government for asking Meta to restrict some accounts.
It says the recruitment process may have included people who did not take the required TET exam.
It also alleges that the sports quota was misused and that some qualified players were denied jobs.
The government’s position was not included in the report.
YSRCP leaders say blocking posts will not stop them from raising the issue.
They want an independent CBI investigation.
They also want Education Minister Nara Lokesh to resign.

YSRCP cited alleged jobs awarded without the mandatory TET exam, disputed reservation decisions and misuse of the sports quota.
The party demanded a CBI inquiry into DSC 2025 and the resignation of Education Minister Nara Lokesh.
