80,000 job vacancies to be filled up soon, says Telangana CM K Chandrasekhar Rao

HYDERABAD: In what could come as a Dasara gift for the unemployed youth of the state, chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao on Tuesday said 70,000 to 80,000 job vacancies will be filled up soon.
CM said the government had already issued notifications to fill 1,51,000 vacancies in various government departments. Of them, 1,31,000 have already joined the respective departments.

The CM held a couple of meetings with departments heads and secretaries in the last two months and asked them to identify the number of vacancies in state, zonal and district level posts. The departments submitted the list of vacancies to the CM.
KCR said the state government had submitted the new zones system file to the Centre for approval, while the Centre took seven months for giving the approval. “After Dasara, the government will hold a meeting with employees’ associations on zonal transfers and other issues,” he said.
Admitting that the pandemic hit the state’s finances badly, he said the government still implemented Pay Revision Commission (PRC) for state government employees and increased salaries of outsourced employees. “For the first time in the country, advocates and private teachers got financial assistance during pandemic,” he said.
He said theirs was the only government in the country which took care of every community in the state. “Even Brahmin parishad is going to get a new building,” he added.
