Naidu condemns ‘false campaign’ on DSC recruitment, warns against attacks on teachers
Challenging YSRCP to a debate in the Assembly with evidence, Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu says courts are open for any legal dispute over a lawful process, and street attacks are deplorable; teachers have been promptly countering the campaign, he adds
Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu denounced the alleged harassment of District Selection Committee (DSC) sports quota teacher recruits by YSR Congress Party activists in Vijayawada on Monday. Speaking at a public meeting in Kothapeta locality, the Chief Minister warned that such attacks on teachers would not go unpunished. Naidu characterized the YSRCP as a "fake party" and criticized the protesters for calling the hard-earned jobs of the recruited teachers "fake."
Defending his government's recruitment practices, Naidu stated that the District Selection Committee notifications issued during his tenure were free from corruption and that no paper leak had occurred. He noted that the appointments made a year ago were promptly countered by teachers who challenged the false propaganda launched by the YSRCP.
The Chief Minister challenged the opposition to present evidence in the Assembly and emphasized that disputes over a lawful process should be addressed in courts, not through street attacks.
Naidu highlighted the unprecedented destruction that took place under the previous regime during 2019-24, citing instances of rowdyism, obstruction during his visits to Kuppam, and the adulteration of Tirumala laddu. He vowed that the tail of rowdies would be cut and pledged to protect Kuppam and Hindupur, the two constituencies that have consistently voted for the "Cycle" symbol.
The Chief Minister discussed various developmental activities in Kuppam, including the completion of a ₹7,939 crore worth of projects, such as a ₹3.30-crore solid waste management plant, 14-15 MW PM-Kusum solar for agricultural feeders, ₹10 crore works in 35 schools, a skill centre by Manas Sarovar Global University, ₹2-crore Rythu Bazaar, ₹13-crore RDO and DSP offices, high-mast lights, toilets, and a heritage granite cluster.
He also mentioned the planned link of national highways to Kuppam with Bengaluru, Chennai, KGF, and Krishnagiri, and the expedited airport plan.
