Byreddy alleges gross violation of zonal system in police dept
Rayalaseema Parirakshana Samithi (RPS) president Byreddy Rajasekhar Reddy alleged gross violation of zonal system in the promotion and recruitment in the police department affecting the personnel from Rayalseemaa which falls under zone 4 in the State.
​Tirupati: Rayalaseema Parirakshana Samithi (RPS) president Byreddy Rajasekhar Reddy alleged gross violation of zonal system in the promotion and recruitment in the police department affecting the personnel from Rayalseemaa which falls under zone 4 in the State.
Speaking to media persons here on Tuesday, Rajasekhar Reddy said that the gross violation of zonal system by the government deprived the eligible candidates getting employment in the police department while many working in the department were also denied promotions.
He said the violation causing injustice to Rayalaseema candidates was revealed clearly in the information provided to him under RTI act. “RPS along with likeminded outfits would launch a struggle including legal course against the injustice meted out to the people of Rayalaseema where it flouted zonal system while at same time the government scrupulously followed it with to regard to the appointments in the other three zones in the State,” he warned.
Reddy said that such flouting of zonal system by the government not confined to police department but in many departments including Irrigation and warned that if such flouting of norms allowed to go on unchecked, the future will turn bleak to the youth of Rayalsaeema.
Stating that some of the aggrieved senior police officials have already succeeded in getting orders from the Supreme Court against violation of zonal system in promotion, he said the RPS would also approach the apex court to get justice to all the affected and also ensure zonal system in the future recruitments in any department.
In this connection, Reddy reiterated his demand to make Amaravati, Vijayawda and Guntur in the capital city region as a free zone to ensure justice to all the four zones and criticised the TDP government for not declaring Amaravathi as a free zone.
