Government urged to grant probation to village, ward secretariat employees

Chairman of the Andhra Pradesh Joint Action Committee (AP JAC) Amaravati Bopparaju Venkateswarlu on August 13 (Sunday) demanded that the government give a firm assurance on the financial losses incurred by the village and ward secretariat employees on account of delay in the grant of probation to them.

Speaking at the State Executive Committee meeting of the A.P. Village and Ward Secretariat Employees’ Welfare Association held in Vijayawada and attended by the presidents and secretaries of the 26 districts, Mr. Venkateswarlu said the JAC would urge the government to address the issue at the earliest.

He said the authorities concerned should initiate transfer process for the employees working in the Medical and Health, Agriculture, Horticulture and Sericulture departments in the village and ward secretariats, and implement regular pay scales for the employees appointed on compassionate grounds, besides grant of two notional increments.
