APPSC to re-conduct G-1 exams

The Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission on Wednesday stated that the Commission would re-conduct the Group-1 preliminary examination for those candidates who did not appear for the test due to bandh call given by Telangana Rashtra Samiti.

The Commission, in a statement to the media, made it clear that it would re-conduct the examination in B Ed College of Osmania University and Tejaswini School, Warangal, where the examination was either disrupted or due to the prevailing tension following the bandh call.

The commission took this decision as thin attendance reported in these centres.

However, the Osmania University Joint Action Committee threatened to obstruct the examination until the government makes its stand clear on 42 percent quota in recruitments for Telanganaites.

The OUJAC warned of serious consequences if the commission goes ahead with re-conducting of the examination without taking any decision on 42 percent job quota for Telangana students.
