Jagan should explain APPSC exam lapses to Assembly, says Andhra CM
The government has placed documentary evidence of the alleged lapses before the Assembly, says Naidu
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has called on YSRCP president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy to explain the irregularities in the APPSC Group-I recruitment process during a session in the Legislative Assembly. The Chief Minister urged the opposition party to address the allegations of massive irregularities, rather than resorting to counter-attacks based on falsehoods.
Naidu emphasized the seriousness of the situation and its impact on the youth, vowing to take strict action against those responsible for the bungling. The government had presented the details and documentary evidence of the irregularities to the Assembly, and Naidu vowed to overhaul the functioning of the APPSC to prevent similar incidents in the future.
The flawed conduct of the APPSC examinations during the YSRCP's tenure was evidence of high-level corruption, and even court orders could not stop the rot. A Senior Police Officer who was the Intelligence Chief during the YSRCP's tenure was also found to have committed serious mistakes, and the system would be cleaned up. Naidu warned that if the government remained silent, the people would hold such parties accountable for their follies.
