Party TS unit president Kishan Reddy accuses the government of failing to fill vacant posts of teachers, junior lecturers and lectures and vice-chancellors
Hyderabad: Bharatiya Janata Party State unit president G Kishan Reddy on Saturday slammed Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao for not implementing the free and compulsory education from kindergarten to postgraduation (KG to PG) scheme. Speaking to media persons here, Kishan Reddy said the State government had no direction as far as implementation of the KG to PG scheme.
The ruling TRS government, which had promised to implement its flagship programme KG to PG in academic year 2014-15, postponed it to next academic year. Kishan Reddy said as many as 20,500 posts for teacher, 3,100 post for junior lecturers and 1,777 posts for lectures remained vacant.
But the State government had failed to fill the posts. He deplored the government for failing to appoint vice-chancellors for Universities. “How Bangaru Telangana can be achieved when the government failed to impart good education to children,” he wondered.
Kishan Reddy pointed out that there are as many as 1,706 vacancies in all 12 universities, including Osmania and JNTU. Not even a single person had been recruited during the last 15 months, he said. He said the TRS government was discriminating against even Telangana students in providing fee reimbursement.
He said the government was yet to clear Rs 60 crore fee reimbursement arrears. The government had not released a single rupee for the year 2014-15. Apart from it, he said about two lakh lectures across the state were not paid salaries for the past nine months.
