They will also get 30 per cent reservation in the VRO, attender and driver posts. The CM also issued instructions that all those who are referred to as Vetti and by other nomenclature should now be referred to and addressed as VRAs. The decisions taken by the government would benefit 19,345 VRAs working in all districts.
The services of the VRAs who passed the Public Service Commission examination would be regularised.
