DYFI warns of State-wide agitation over ‘jobless calendar’
Federation demands revision of job calendar and recruitment to vacant government posts, alleging the government has misled unemployed youth
The Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) has raised concerns over the Andhra Pradesh government's alleged misleading of unemployed youth through a "jobless calendar". The State committee criticized the government for offering only 10,060 job vacancies in the job calendar, despite nearly two lakh government posts being vacant across various departments.
This discrepancy, particularly in the Police Department where nearly 19,996 police constable posts were vacant, prompted protests from aspirants demanding notifications for 11,639 posts. The DYFI leaders also criticized the government's failure to disclose the number of posts in certain departments, such as Education and Animal Husbandry, and demanded an immediate revision of the job calendar to fill all vacant positions.
If the government fails to address these issues, the DYFI has threatened to launch a State-wide agitation.
