Telangana CM Revanth Reddy announces completion of Group-I recruitment by March 31, 2025, criticizing BRS government's failure.
Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy announced that the recruitment of Group-I posts would be completed by March 31, 2025 this year thus paving way for the recruitment of Group-I officers after 14 years.
“We successfully conducted Group-I exam despite the hurdles created and will complete the recruitment by March 31, [2025]” Mr. Reddy said criticising the Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) for failing the unemployed and their aspirations during its two terms in power.
The Chief Minister said the BRS did not conduct a single Group-I examination since Telangana was formed 11 years ago and said it reflected its attitude towards the unemployed youth. “On the other hand, the Congress government filled up 55,000 government jobs within a year of assuming power,” he said.
Mr. Reddy was speaking after distributing cheques of ₹1 lakh each to the Civil Services aspirants who did well in the Civils Mains examination from Telangana, in Hyderabad, on Sunday (January 5, 2025.) The Rajiv Gandhi Civil Abhayahastham scheme was launched by the Congress government to encourage Civil Services aspirants.
The Chief Minister said the scheme was aimed to encourage Telangana youngsters to compete and bag jobs at the national level, particularly civil services. He said Bihar State despite being backward produces lot of civil servants and hoped that in the near future Telangana youngsters would be on the top in the country.
Twenty candidates who cleared the Mains were given ₹1 lakh cheques each. He told the aspirants that it was not financial assistance but encouragement given by the government. He hoped that everyone who appears for the interview would be selected for the top services.
Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka said the government would provide hostel facilities in New Delhi to those selected for the interview so that they can prepare with full focus on the exam.
