Telangana Congress decries change of Group syllabi
In what could be called as role reversal, the Congress party in Telangana has now decided to hit the roads taking up cudgels against the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) over the issues of student community. It has decided to form a Joint Action Committee (JAC) with the students and unemployed youth to counter the TRS government’s delaying tactics in reimbursement of fee to students.
Hyderabad: In what could be called as role reversal, the Congress party in Telangana has now decided to hit the roads taking up cudgels against the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) over the issues of student community. It has decided to form a Joint Action Committee (JAC) with the students and unemployed youth to counter the TRS government’s delaying tactics in reimbursement of fee to students.
The Telangana Congress leaders have accused the Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao of deceiving the unemployed youth by appointing a 25-member committee to draft the new syllabus for Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC). “The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) government has thrown waters on the aspirations of unemployed youth by delaying job recruitment notifications.
The government is using the names of intellectuals like Prof Haragopal and Prof Kodandaram to delay recruitment in the name of new syllabus,” former MP Ponnam Prabhakar said. The Telangana Congress sees clear failure of the KCR government in paying of scholarships, fees reimbursement and filling up one lakh government jobs, as promised by Chief Minister KCR in the run-up to the 2014 Assembly elections.
However, the TSPSC chairman Ganta Chakrapani has announced that recruitment notifications would be issued only after the new syllabus was in place. Similarly, Congress leaders claim that KCR failed to come up with a new scheme after the Hyderabad High Court faulted his government for framing the FAST scheme (Financial Assistance to Students of Telangana) rules in such a way as to exclude students of other States from availing the benefit of fee reimbursement.
The Hyderabad High Court felt that the GO issued by the State government allowing only those students whose parents were residents of Telangana as on November 1, 1956, is violative of the Indian Constitution. The Court observed that such an attitude would lead to “divisive tendencies” and can “adversely affect the federal structure” of the country.
