Group-I Buzz: Congress Faces Deadline for Job Notifications

0

With only three days remaining, the big question for unemployed youth and government job seekers in the State is whether the Congress government will fulfill its promise of announcing the Group-I notification. In their election manifesto, the Congress pledged to fill two lakh jobs within the first year of forming the government.

To honor this commitment, the government released a job calendar specifying the notification dates for various vacancies, with the Group-I notification scheduled for February 1.

The Congress also outlined plans to notify Group-II on April 1 in the first phase, with the second phase notification set for December 15. Additionally, teacher job aspirants were promised a mega District Selection Committee (DSC).

Notification dates for Group-III and IV vacancies, assistant executive engineers and AEE posts in various departments, agriculture, horticulture, and veterinary officers, assistant motor car vehicle inspectors, as well as positions in transport, excise, and police constables, polytechnic, junior and degree lecturers were also announced.

However, there are concerns that the government might miss the February 1 deadline as there have been no clearances from the Finance Department for recruiting new positions. The recruitment process involves approval from the Finance Department to the recruiting agency, such as the TSPSC. Even with everything in place, the recruiting agency takes at least one to two weeks to issue a fresh notification.

In 2022, the BRS government, through the TSPSC, announced 26 notifications for a total of 17,285 vacancies, including 503 Group-I, 783 Group-II, 1,375 Group-III, and 8,180 Group-IV. The newly formed TSPSC team, led by former Telangana DGP M Mahendar Reddy, is reportedly reviewing the commission’s functioning, recruitment process, pending notifications, and results to be declared.

New Government, Old Rules: Universities to Ditch Common Recruitment

0

Forget the fancy “common recruitment board” the previous government dreamed up. The new Congress bosses in Telangana are scrapping it and going back to the old way of hiring teachers and staff in state universities.

Why the switch? Simple. They promised unemployed youth 2 lakh government jobs by year-end, and the old system seems faster. Plus, there were whispers of bribes and favouritism in the new board’s plan.

Remember how universities used to hire? They’d check your papers, see how smart you are, and maybe ask you a few questions. No entrance exams, just good old-fashioned merit. But that got messy in court, with accusations of unfairness.

So, the last government cooked up this “common board” idea, with a big test for everyone and a fancy chairman. No more messy interviews, just one big exam. But the Governor wasn’t convinced, sent it to the President for approval, and it got stuck.

Now, the new government says forget all that. Let’s go back to the old way, faster and simpler. 2,825 jobs are already waiting, and they need filling!

So, for all you job seekers out there, dust off your resumes and research papers. The universities are going back to basics, and maybe, just maybe, your dream job is waiting.

Obtaining the National Board of Accreditation certification involves modernizing laboratories, optimizing staffing, and enhancing student facilities, among other improvements.

Online Classes Over Dasara Holidays Due to Rain Disruptions

Online Classes Over Dasara Holidays Due to Rain Disruptions:

Due to heavy rainfall causing disruptions in regular school schedules throughout July and August, schools are turning to online classes over the upcoming Dasara vacation to prevent students from falling behind in their studies. The Dasara vacation in the state is scheduled for October 13-25.

Some schools are considering conducting short online classes lasting one to two hours until October 18. Prolonged rainfall led to the cancellation and interruption of physical classes, which raised concerns among teachers and students regarding its impact on the academic calendar. For students finishing board exams on October 12, online classes will be extended by up to five additional days. Meanwhile, CBSE and ICSE students have already begun their classes.

The decision to conduct online classes is driven by the need to complete the curriculum for the second term before the first week of December. A mere 50 days is insufficient since there is also a need to cover missed units from the previous term, as explained by Prasanna Kumari, principal of a private school in Vidyanagar. Gayatri P.G., another teacher, emphasized the importance of adequately preparing students for various assessments and unit tests, as any further delays could affect their performance.

Ramya Sri, a member of a parents’ association, acknowledged the challenge of her 6th grader completing all units and suggested that while students shouldn’t be forced into attending online classes during the holidays, these classes could help them catch up and stay on track for exams. She believes the decision should be left to the students and parents.

Sushma Pandiri, a teacher at a local school, reassured parents and students that the online sessions would not involve additional homework. Their primary goal is to ensure students can cover the chapters and units disrupted by the rains without overburdening them with extra assignments during this period.

On the other hand, students expressed their dislike for online classes and preferred the option of additional in-person classes or skipping physical education classes to make up for the missed curriculum.

Deadline Extended for Re-admitted Students to Pay AP Intermediate Exam Fees:

The Board of Intermediate Education has extended the deadline for exam fee payment for first and second-year Intermediate candidates who had previously failed or discontinued their studies. With the new deadline set for November 30, these candidates now have the opportunity to appear for the Intermediate Public Examinations scheduled for March 2024.

According to a statement from BIE secretary Saurabh Gaur, the state government has permitted the re-admission of students who did not pass their Class X and Inter examinations. This initiative aims to achieve a 100 percent gross enrollment ratio and comes with specific guidelines for the re-admission process.

According to these guidelines, re-admitted candidates are required to take all subjects in the Intermediate Public Examinations. If a student takes these exams multiple times, only the higher of the two sets of marks obtained will be taken into consideration.

The certificates awarded to these students will not categorize them as fail, compartmental, private, or with star marks. Instead, all candidates, regardless of whether they passed on their initial attempt or upon re-admission, will receive a uniform pass certificate with no distinctions.

Telangana Teachers Stage Protest Demanding Expedited Spousal Transfers

Telangana Teachers Stage Protest Demanding Expedited Spousal Transfers:

Teachers and staff protested in front of Pragathi Bhavan on Sunday, demanding the immediate implementation of promised “spouse transfers.” Several women, hailing from various districts, were detained until 9.30 pm during the demonstration.

“We put our kids at the house and don’t have access to return home within time. My son is unwell. We came here to advocate for a cause, and our treatment feels inhumane. There are no restroom facilities or access to water here. Is this the way they treat women here?” questioned one protester.

Another participant vowed not to back down until Education Minister Sabitha Indra Reddy addressed their grievances, referring to their current situation as “torture.”

According to the demonstrators, the government’s actions have separated over 80,000 couples by assigning them to different districts, leaving them unable to care for their children, parents, or families. Most of the political Leaders were given assurance of spouse transfers, but they failed to provide those promises.

There has been a deliberate lack of action in lifting the High Court’s imposed stay order,” noted Harinakshi P, a teacher. “It’s disheartening that these teachers and employees have been making requests to the government for the past two years, only to be disregarded,” added Chava Ravi, General Secretary of the Telangana State United Teachers Federation (TSUTF).”

Even though there are 22,000 vacant teaching positions, only 5,089 have been officially announced for the District Selection Committee (DSC). Why can’t the teachers be transferred to fill the remaining vacancies?”
