Telangana: Start process to fill up 50,000 govt jobs, says CM K Chandrasekhar Rao

HYDERABAD: Here is some good news for unemployed youth of the state. Chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao on Friday directed officials to begin the process of recruitment to fill up 50,000 vacancies in various government departments immediately.

“While the process to fill up the vacancies in all the departments should start immediately, vacancies created after giving promotions to existing employees should be taken up in the second phase,” the CM said at a review meeting on job vacancies.

Decks for the new zonal system, which was necessary to undertake recruitment, had been cleared by the Centre recently. The Centre cleared the news zones and multi-zones, which were modified in tune with the new districts, a couple of months ago. The state government also issued a GO following the gazette notification on the new zonal system.

The CM said the recruitment process under the former rulers in undivided AP was disorganised. One of the slogans of the Telangana statehood movement was jobs for locals and the government brought the new zonal system scientifically only to do justice to the locals, he said.

“With the President giving his assent, all the obstacles for the recruitment policy in the state have been cleared. There are about 50,000 jobs, which can be recruited directly. The government has begun the process of promotions in all the departments as well. Jobs falling vacant after implementing the promotions will be identified soon,” KCR said.

He instructed the officials to get the entire information and data on the vacancies by preparing a detailed report and place it before the state cabinet meeting.
