1. AP government fulfils the demands of DSC aspirants as the state cabinet approves DSC to fill 6,100 teachers posts*
2. AP Cabinet has given its nod to fill 689 posts in the forest department*
3. 5,000 crore allocated for the welfare of BC, SC, ST & Minority women*
4. Cabinet gave nod to release the funds under the fourth tranche of YSR Cheyutha on Feb 16*
5. Cabinet gave its approval to go ahead the proposals made by State Investment Promotion Board (SIPB) to the investments worth Rs 22,302 crore in the power sector*
6. Cabinet extends the retirement age of non-teaching staff in government universities from 60 years to 62 years*
7. AP cabinet makes it mandatory for all gram panchayats to have a appointed secretary*
The biggest of the lot is obviously the issuance of the DSC notification through which, over 6000 teacher posts will be filled in Andhra Pradesh. This is a huge boost to the unemployed youth in the state.
