Andhra High Court dismisses pleas seeking stay on DSC exam
VIJAYAWADA: The Andhra Pradesh High Court on Monday dismissed a batch of petitions filed by aspirants seeking a stay on the conduct of the DSC-2025 examination, scheduled for June 6, and subsequent recruitment proceedings. Justice Kuncham Maheshwar Rao, delivering the verdict, stated that the issuance of hall tickets has already been completed and all arrangements for the examination are in place. He noted that the petitioners failed to present sufficient preliminary evidence to warrant interim relief. 'There are no valid grounds to halt the recruitment process. Public interest outweighs individual grievances in this matter,' the judge observed. The court emphasised the State government's authority to frame recruitment policies. The petitioners had raised objections concerning age eligibility, language requirements, and the limited preparation time. Boyi Kannayya and 12 others from Kurnool requested that all candidates eligible under the DSC-2024 notification also be considered eligible for DSC-2025. They also urged the court to increase the upper age limit from 44 to 45 years.

Teachers' body seeks redressal of issues on transfers
Members of Navya Andhra Teachers' Association on Sunday (May 25) urged Commissioner of School Education V. Vijay Rama Raju to address issues pertaining to reapportionment of teaching staff, transfers, subject allocations and teacher promotions. During a coordination meeting held with the official, the association members put forth their demands. They said the Primary School Head Master (PSHM) post should be allotted to the most senior in-service teachers, dedicated Telugu subject teacher post should be allocated in upper primary schools and teachers who were transferred in 2017 should be granted full eight years of service points. They also demanded amendments to the G.O. on reapportionment of teaching staff, that the number of teaching periods be capped at 32 in high schools and that the minimum size of a class section be fixed at 45 students. Surplus students should be adjusted before initiating the transfer process. They said all the posts relating to DSC-2025 should reflect in the teacher transfer process and no post should be blocked. Raising concern over shifting of Zilla Parishad posts to other managements, they said ZP teachers were already suffering due to a lack of service rules and promotion opportunities for over 25 years. They said that for model primary school headmaster posts, manual counselling should be conducted for only those who explicitly express willingness, and School Assistants who did not wish to opt for HM posts should still be allowed to apply for School Assistant posts during the same counselling.
