The Telangana Unemployed Students Joint Action Committee and BC Udyama Vedika have demanded that the State government order a CBI inquiry into the results of the Group I main examinations conducted by Telangana State Public Service Commission.
They alleged that the TSPSC had violated the directions of the Supreme Court in conduct of the examination afresh. Representatives of the JAC and Vedika staged a dharna on the Osmania University premises on Monday protesting the manner in which the examination was conducted against the interests of the genuine aspirants. They burnt an effigy of Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao at Arts College as part of the protest.
Speaking on the occasion, Unemployed JAC leader K. Manavata Roy and Vedika State president D. Sambasivarao Goud recalled that the Supreme Court directed the TSPSC to conduct re-examination for the aspirants who appeared for the mains examinations. But the TSPSC violated the court’s order and made changes in the syllabus in the conduct of the examination.
‘Posts reduced’
Moreover, it had reduced the number of Group I posts while calling for certificate verification process which was challenged in the court. Even when the matter was in the court, the TSPSC invited 12 candidates through “backdoor” for certificate verification. The Supreme Court had ordered re-examination after wrong questions carrying six marks were given in the question paper and the re-examination conducted by the TSPSC had covered up the mistakes in the question paper through scaling.
The representatives expressed concern over the problems created to genuine students in the university hostels across the State under the pretext of evicting non-boarders. The Government should in fact remove the Ministers who supported united State at the peak of the separate State movement, Mr. Manavata Roy said at a separate press conference at Gandhi Bhavan this afternoon. “The vice-chancellors and registrars of the respective universities will deal with the issues relating to non-boarders. The Government should take steps to expel Ministers like Kadiyam Srihari, T. Srinivas Yadav, T. Nageswara Rao, P. Mahender Reddy and Ajmira Chandulal who remained loyal to united State,” he said asserting that the Telangana Congress was committed to stand by students.
He lamented that the Government had not appointed the governing councils for the State universities.
