YSRCP seeks Lokesh’s resignation over alleged Mega DSC irregularities

The YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) on Monday demanded the resignation of Education Minister Nara Lokesh over the alleged irregularities in the Mega DSC-2025 teacher recruitment process and sought a CBI inquiry monitored by a sitting High Court judge.

Addressing a press conference at the party’s central office in Tadepalli, YSRCP State spokesperson Gudapureddy Veerashekar Reddy alleged that the recruitment process was marred by several irregularities, including the alleged leakage of the question paper, changes to the merit list, deletion of candidate data, issues relating to 1:1 certificate verification, appointments under the Sports Quota and implementation of reservations.

He questioned the circumstances under which SCERT outsourcing employee Naveen, who was initially shown as the State topper, was removed from the revised merit list. He also sought an explanation for the blocking of Naveen’s DSC ID after certificate verification and his subsequent removal from service.
