Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy criticized the former Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) government for neglecting compassionate jobs for the families of deceased or retired government employees. He made these comments during an event where he handed out appointment letters to 922 new candidates, including over 500 jobs given on compassionate grounds. Mr. Reddy took aim at former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, saying he favored family members, like appointing his daughter K. Kavitha to an MLC position. The Chief Minister emphasized that many young people have struggled for a decade without job opportunities due to the previous government's inaction. He pointed out that no policies were made for compassionate jobs since 2015. During his speech, Mr. Reddy defended his administration, highlighting that he has issued 57,924 appointment letters. He noted that his government successfully conducted the Group-1 exam, offering 563 jobs, and promised that results for Group-2 and Group-3 exams would be announced soon. The Chief Minister accused the BRS of obstructing his efforts to improve infrastructure and attract businesses to the state. He also addressed criticisms about his administration, arguing that while he works long hours, the previous leader remains disconnected while staying at a farmhouse. Key officials, including Panchayat Raj Minister Danasari Anasuya and Chief Secretary Santhi Kumari, were present at the event.
