YSRCP flags ‘irregularities’ in DSC sports-quota recruitment
The YSR Congress Party has alleged irregularities in the Andhra Pradesh DSC-2025 sports-quota recruitment process. They claim that ineligible candidates were appointed to teaching positions through fraudulent sports certificates and questionable government orders.
Why it matters
This highlights potential corruption in public sector hiring and raises concerns about the integrity of reservation policies in state education systems.
The YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) on Tuesday (August 4, 2026) alleged irregularities in the conduct of Andhra Pradesh DSC-2025 sports-quota recruitments and produced documentary evidence.
Addressing a media conference, YSRCP Tirupati assembly constituency in-charge B. Abhinay Reddy flagged G.O.Ms.No.04 and G.O.Ms.No.47 issued days before the DSC-2025 notification that introduced 3 per cent horizontal reservation for meritorious sportspersons by permitting recruitment without a written or competitive examination.
“While selection was based on the priority assigned to their sports achievements, several candidates appointed to teaching positions neither had knowledge on their domain, nor had the teaching ability and classroom aptitude, assessed through the DSC,” Mr. Abhinay Reddy said, suspecting a plot to secure entry for ineligible candidates in the garb of genuine sportspersons.
