YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) Employees Wing State president N. Chandrasekhar Reddy has condemned the ongoing transfers of government employees, alleging widespread irregularities and systemic mismanagement in the process.
The transfer process, particularly for village and ward secretariat staff, is marred by egregious violations of rules, with over 90% of transfers reportedly influenced by undue pressures. Employees are being forcibly relocated to areas far from their home mandals, causing severe disruption and distress, he alleged.
In a statement on Monday, the YSRCP leader demanded immediate action, and cancellation of all irregular transfers and the initiation of a transparent, well-planned transfer process. He urged the government to release four pending DAs without delay. “If the government continues to exploit employees, it will not survive long,” he warned.
Mr. Chandrasekhar alleged that the transfers were undermining the system with arbitrary decisions under the guise of rationalisation. “The transfers are being done based on recommendations from MLAs, with employees being coerced into or paying bribes to secure postings. Why are MLA recommendation letters being demanded when no such requirement exists in the transfer G.O.s?” he asked.
The YSRCP leader said this practice has left employees, particularly women, vulnerable to harassment, with ‘counselling sessions conducted at odd hours’, adding to their plight. Many employees are struggling to meet the financial demands of MLAs and their associates, plunging them into further hardship.
