Hyderabad, July 6 (Maxim News): In a significant development for former Village Revenue Officers (VROs) and Village Revenue Assistants (VRAs), Telangana Revenue Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy has assured that another opportunity will be given for their appointment as Village Administrative Officers (GPOs).
The announcement came after Minister Ponguleti held a key meeting on Saturday at the Secretariat with Revenue Secretary DS Lokesh Kumar and representatives of revenue employee unions. The discussions focused on the pending appointments of GPOs and the concerns raised by various associations.
Missed Exam? Another Chance Coming Soon
Officials revealed that 3,454 candidates had been selected as eligible in the recent GPO recruitment examination, but several former VROs and VRAs were unable to attend the exam due to unavoidable circumstances. Leaders of the revenue employees’ associations urged the government to provide these individuals one more chance to apply or appear for the recruitment process.
Minister Ponguleti responded positively, acknowledging the concerns of the associations and emphasizing the government’s commitment to fair opportunity and transparency in recruitment.
“We are seriously considering the issue and will soon make an official announcement regarding the next steps,” said Minister Ponguleti.
Support From Revenue Department
The Revenue Department, under the guidance of Secretary DS Lokesh Kumar, is expected to frame modalities for offering this additional opportunity, ensuring that eligible and experienced personnel are not left out of the recruitment process.
This decision is likely to benefit hundreds of former field-level staff who have been awaiting clarity on their roles after the reorganization of the revenue system in Telangana.
