Launching a sharp attack on the opposition BRS, Revanth alleged that unemployed youth were neglected during its nearly 10-year rule. He said the previous regime prioritised family and party interests over governance and failed to fill govt vacancies, forcing youth to agitate for jobs. He said this discontent ultimately led to the Congress being voted to power. TGPSC restructuredAfter assuming office in Dec 2023, Revanth said the Congress govt restructured the Telangana Public Service Commission by appointing members with proven integrity and track records. Despite legal challenges to recruitment notifications, the government conducted group I, group II and group III exams transparently, he said. Revanth pointed out that more than five lakh aspirants each had applied for 563 group I posts and 731 group II posts, underscoring the scale of unemployment. He accused the previous government of failing to conduct examinations properly, citing exam paper leaks that jeopardised the futures of thousands of aspirants. He said the Congress govt revived the TGPSC after studying the functioning of the UPSC and filled nearly 70,000 posts in just two years. Saying he was aware of discussions among job aspirants at Osmania University and Ashok Nagar, the CM assured that new recruitment notifications would be issued soon. Emotional aspirationRevanth congratulated parents of the selected candidates, acknowledging the hardships they endured to educate their children. Noting that a govt job is an emotional aspiration in Telangana, he urged new recruits to play a key role in rebuilding the state, which he said had been weakened under the previous regime. He stressed that govt employees must serve the poor with empathy and respect, treating them like their own parents. The CM also warned govt employees against neglecting their parents, stating that the govt would consider deducting 10–15% of salaries and depositing it directly into parents’ bank accounts in such cases. Expressing concern over declining public confidence in govt schools, Revanth said while education was accessible, quality remained uneven. He said Telangana has 26,000 govt schools with over 16 lakh students, compared to 33 lakh students in 11,000 private schools. He said restoring quality education and skill-based learning in govt schools would help students compete globally and rebuild public trust.
