**Deputy CM Discusses Postponement of Group-2 Exams**
**Hyderabad:** Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka announced that the government is considering postponing the Group-2 exams. He mentioned that these exams might be held in the last week of December.
Bhatti Vikramarka met with Group-2 candidates at the Secretariat on Friday. He said the possibility of rescheduling the exam to late December would be discussed with officials. He also instructed the Telangana Public Service Commission chairman, Mahender Reddy, to look into the postponement request made by the unemployed youth.
In the past three months, 54,000 vacant posts have been filled, according to Bhatti Vikramarka. He added that a job calendar would be announced after identifying further vacant posts. This would ensure that competitive exams do not overlap.
The Deputy CM emphasized that Telangana State was formed to provide jobs for the youth. He noted that if the previous government had filled vacancies over the last 10 years, many families would have been settled by now. Bhatti Vikramarka recalled that Revanth Reddy, as PCC chief, and himself, as CLP leader, had made employment issues a part of their party’s election agenda. He added that Chief Minister Revanth Reddy believes that the sooner Telangana youth get jobs, the better.
He addressed concerns about delayed job notifications, stating that while delaying could save the government salary costs, their government does not think that way. The focus is on ensuring youth settle down and their families prosper. Bhatti Vikramarka stressed their commitment to keeping election promises.
The Deputy CM mentioned that the government is working quickly to improve the education system. He advised youth not to be misled by vested interests and cautioned against actions like threats or blackmail, as these could lead to legal troubles.
Furthermore, the government plans to open Ambedkar Knowledge Centres in every Assembly constituency soon. These centres will offer modern technology and free online coaching for those preparing for competitive exams from 10 am to 5 pm.
Vikramarka assured that the government would thoroughly examine all issues raised by the unemployed. “You are our children. We want to ensure that the State’s resources and your intelligence do not go to waste. This Indiramma government will fully listen to your problems and resolve them,” he concluded.
