U.P. job aspirants to hold ‘Hunkar panchayat’ on August 25, demand transparent, time-bound recruitment
Students from across the State have been invited for detailed deliberations
On Tuesday, government job aspirants in Uttar Pradesh announced they would hold a Student Panchayat on August 25, demanding transparency, a time-bound recruitment process, and the filling of vacant posts at the earliest. They referred to the event as the Hunkar Panchayat, inviting students from across the state to participate in detailed deliberations.
Pankaj Pandey, convenor of Sanyukt Pratiyogi Chhatra Hunkar Manch, explained that years of demands for transparency, timely recruitment, and the resolution of various issues such as waiting lists, paper leaks, and delayed results have now reached a breaking point. The students urged the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC), Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UPSSSC), and Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission (UPESSC) to take strict action against paper leaks and corruption, as well as to ensure transparency and accountability in the recruitment process.
The Panchayat, which could be held in Prayagraj or Lucknow, aimed to raise the voice of students for justice, transparency, and employment. Vivek Singh, another aspirant, highlighted the pressing issue of delays and irregularities in various state-level competitive examinations, particularly the lack of vacancies for primary and secondary teachers over the past five years.
The Congress party called for a white paper on the time taken to complete recruitment tests for various government jobs, comparing the UP commissions' slow processes to the UPSC's expedited timeframe.
