Why it matters
The dispute highlights the intersection of public sector employment, political accountability, and the integrity of state-level recruitment processes.
Thousands of newly appointed teachers took out an ‘Atma Gaurava Rally’ in Kurnool on Saturday, holding placards and raising slogans in support of their Mega DSC-2025 appointments and rejecting allegations of irregularities in the recruitment process made by the YSR Congress Party.
Teachers from the erstwhile Kurnool, Kadapa and Anantapur districts participated in the rally, organised by teacher associations to protest against what they described as false propaganda and baseless allegations. The rally began at Konda Reddy Buruju and proceeded towards the Zilla Parishad office.
The teachers said they had appeared for the DSC examination, competed for the posts and secured their appointments through the prescribed selection process. They objected to their appointments being questioned or being dragged into a political dispute, saying such allegations could adversely affect their careers.
