Former Minister and Telugu Desam Party(TDP) national general secretary Nara Lokesh on Sunday promised to issue DSC notification every year for recruitment of teachers, if the TDP is voted to power in the 2024 general elections. He alleged that the YSRCP government betrayed B. Ed. candidates by not issuing notifications in the last four years.
Mr. Lokesh’s Sankharavam tour in North Andhra region began on Sunday morning in Ichchapuram. The border town of Andhra Pradesh is a stronghold of the TDP, which won from the constituency in the last general elections.
Mr. Lokesh, who could not complete his padayatra in North Andhra districts, chose to hold public meetings in the name of Sankharavam. Speaking at the public meeting organised at Rajavari ground, Mr. Lokesh alleged that all sections of society lost faith on the present government. “Srikakulam has become an underdeveloped area with the neglect of irrigation projects. TDP will focus on irrigation and provide water for lakhs of acres in the district. Problems being faced by cashew farmers will also be addressed by providing remunerative price for cashew nuts and giving financial assistance to them,’‘ Mr. Lokesh said.
