The first Cabinet meeting of the new TDP-led government in Andhra Pradesh, headed by Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu approved the recruitment of 16,347 teachers, abolition of the Land Titling Act and hiking of welfare pensions among other decisions on Monday.
Information and Public Relations (I & PR) Minister K Parthasarathy said the Cabinet gave an assurance to all sections of people that the state government would implement all the poll promises.
"First and foremost, the Cabinet approved the recruitment of 16,347 teachers posts through the District Selection Committee (DSC) recruitment," said Parthasarathy, addressing a press conference at the Secretariat.
Unlike the YSRCP government which did not recruit a single teacher in its five-year tenure, the Minister said the government which also includes Janasena and the BJP, will regularly conduct DSC exam to recruit teachers.
Also, he said the Cabinet had abolished the Land Titling Act introduced by the previous government as it .
