However, the police foiled their bid. Morcha district president Yaswant Singh and other leaders demanded the government to cancel the job calendar which is practically not useful to the job aspirants.

Yaswant Singh demanded the government to fill 2.40 lakh vacant posts in the state and issue a revised notification. Meanwhile tension prevailed at the residence of Deputy Chief Minister Amzath Basha in Kadapa when BJYM activists tried to picket his house demanding cancellation of job calendar recently released by the government.

The activists raised slogans against the government alleging it has deceived the unemployed youth in the name of jobs.
