Telangana new CM Revanth Reddy, seriously considering putting a hold on GO 111 repeal!?
Accordingly the Praja vani program started by the new congress government in telangana is providing an outlet to the public to bring up their grievances. The complaints range from land disputes to discrepancies in distribution of 2-BHK houses. Another recurring compliant is regarding a number of controversial government orders (GOs) passed during the BRS government. With a new government and new cabinet in place, the protesters are hopeful that their pleas will be heard.Hence about GO 46: youth aspiring for police jobs have been up against this order that says that positions under the telangana State Level police Recruitment Board (TSLPRB) will be filled up in various districts according to certain ratios provided by the government. The protesters have argued that the ratio break-up favors aspirants living in hyderabad and nearby districts as they have been allocated a higher number of jobs. This leaves aspirants from other districts in the lurch, say protesters. There are two other GOs that TSLPRB aspirants have been objecting to GOs 57 and 58.GO 111: Repeal of GO111 was one of the most controversial moves by the BRS government. The GO prevented extreme industrialisation at 83 villages. It also protected catchment areas of lakes and prevented pollution of the city’s two main reservoirs (Osman Sagar and Himayat Sagar). By revoking it, the government opened up 1.32 lakh acres for real estate. The move attracted criticism from people from various quarters, ranging from environmentalists to opposition. There is speculation that the new chief minister, revanth Reddy, is seriously considering putting a hold on GO 111 repeal. However, no announcement has been made yet.
