Amaravati: Volunteers in Andhra Pradesh are facing a new wave of uncertainty following a petition filed in the high court seeking their removal. The petitioner has alleged that the reservation policy was not followed during the appointment of volunteers.
The high court has directed the Andhra Pradesh government to file a counter in response to the petition. This legal challenge coincides with the state’s recent decision to distribute pensions directly to secretariat employees rather than through the volunteers, sparking concerns about their future roles.
The filing of the petition has intensified the volunteers’ agitation, as the potential exclusion could significantly impact their employment. The outcome of the court’s decision is now a critical issue being closely watched across the state.
