NIZAMABAD: TPCC president and MLC B. Mahesh Kumar Goud said on Sunday that 70 per cent of posts in the Congress government would be given to long-standing party workers, while 20 per cent would be reserved for newcomers.
Speaking at a meeting of Congress workers from the erstwhile Nizamabad district, the TPCC president said party workers who had worked hard for the Congress would be given priority in appointments to various posts. He said representation would be balanced among different sections while filling the positions.
He said Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and the All India Congress Committee (AICC) in-charge for Telangana Meenakshi Natarajan had decided that 70 per cent of posts should go to long-standing party workers and that the same format was being followed at the AICC level. Those who had continuously worked for the party over the past five years would be given opportunities, he said.
Goud said first priority would be given to party workers, including those associated with NSUI and Youth Congress. All party committees would be filled, with 20 per cent of the positions reserved for newcomers.
He said Minister Seethakka had suggested giving approval for market committees and assured party workers that their efforts would be recognised.
“The power we have achieved is the result of the hard work of our party workers. The Congress will never forget their efforts,” he said.
Goud also said his 35-year dream of establishing an engineering college and an agriculture college had been realised during his tenure as PCC president.
He expressed confidence that the Congress would return to power in the upcoming elections with 100 seats under the leadership of Chief Minister Revanth Reddy.
Government adviser P. Sudarshan Reddy, Rural MLA Dr Bhupati Reddy, DCC presidents Nagesh Reddy and Bobbili Ramakrishna, corporation chairpersons, Farmers’ Commission members Gadugu Gangadhar, Sunil Kumar Reddy and Vipul Goud, frontal organisation leaders and party workers participated in the meeting.
