“You came to power by giving hopes to the youth and the unemployed. But now their future is being compromised by negligence and irregularities,” Kavitha stated.
Irregularities in Hall Tickets and Biometric Attendance
Kavitha pointed out that candidates were issued different hall tickets for the prelims and mains exams, raising serious doubts from the beginning. Despite implementing a biometric attendance system, discrepancies in attendance were observed.
Questions have emerged on whether all listed candidates actually appeared for the exams, or if others were later included unfairly.
Evaluation Process Under Scrutiny
The BRS MLC also expressed concern over the evaluation of answer sheets, alleging that retired professors were involved without transparency. Candidates have raised alarms over 71 candidates from just two coaching centers being selected—sparking suspicions of favoritism or malpractice.
Even the TGPSC acknowledged that 71 candidates from two exam centers qualified, leading to widespread distrust among aspirants.
High Court Halts Recruitment Process
The High Court of Telangana took cognizance of the concerns and halted the recruitment process, validating the candidates’ grievances. The court noted that the apprehensions expressed were legitimate.
Call for Fresh Notification and Re-Examination
In her concluding remarks, Kavitha urged the Chief Minister to cancel the current Group-I notification, issue a fresh one, and conduct both prelims and mains afresh with fairness and transparency.
“I request the government to wholeheartedly understand the concern among the candidates and take corrective steps,” she emphasized.
