Hyderabad: Slamming the BRS government in Telangana for allegedly letting down unemployed youth since it came to power in 2014, Union Minister G Kishan Reddy on Wednesday said the youth would teach the ruling party a lesson.
He asserted the BJP, after coming to power in the state, would provide jobs to youth akin to the Modi government taking up recruitment drive on a large scale. Addressing a 24-hour protest fast organised here by BJP in solidarity with the unemployed youth, Reddy, president of BJP in Telangana, said lakhs of youth had fought for Telangana statehood with the hope of getting jobs.
He said about 1,200 “Telangana children” had sacrificed their lives for the sake of Telangana statehood. However, the BRS government completely neglected the unemployed youth, he alleged. “They thought they will get jobs. But, unfortunately, unemployed youth did not get jobs even after nine years,” he said.
The BRS government did not conduct Public Service Commission (PSC) recruitment tests for long and “tried to deceive the unemployed youth as per a plan”, he said. And, finally, when the state government conducted recruitment tests, the test papers leaked due to the “corruption of those in the government” and Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao’s “inability”, he alleged.
