Three-member Panel to Check Nativity of Secretariat Staff

HYDERABAD: A team of senior officials will crosscheck the names of Secretariat employees to find whether their local status is Seemandhra or Telangana.
This was in view of the allegation made by Secretariat Telangana employees that some Seemandhra staff had claimed Telangana local status. Telangana employees of the Secretariat met Special Chief Secretary SK Sinha on Wednesday. They lodged a complaint with him that out of the 805 Secretariat employees shown as Telangana locals, some 193 are Seemandhra natives.
Sinha assured them that he would constitute a three-member committee to crosscheck the local status of the 193 employees.
It may be recalled that the State government released the names of Secretariat employees of various departments of “Single Unit” and their local status on Tuesday. The government called for objections and representations about local status by Wednesday afternoon.
Telangana Secretariat Employees Coordination Committee, under the leadership of it chairman M Narender Rao, verified the list and alleged that 193 Seemandhra employees intruded under T-local status.
“Sinha assured that he would ask the senior officials to verify the local status of employees,” Narender Rao told Express. The problem with Secretariat employees was that the birth place of the employees was not recorded in the Service Record, as suggested by the Girglani Commission. This was because all the employees in the Secretariat come under state-cadre category.
Meanwhile, Secretariat Seemandhra Employees Forum president U Murali Krishna said most of the Seemandhra employees would go to the residuary AP state. If a Seemandhra employee born or studied here he/she would continue in Telangana as per the nativity.
Finance Dept List:
The Finance Department on Wednesday released its list of employees. The list of Secretariat employees will be released in three units: Single Unit, Finance Unit and Law Unit. As per the data, the Finance Department has 278 employees. Of them, 114 belong to Seemandhra and 164 to Telangana.
‘100 Docs Made False Local Status Claims’
Hyderabad: Of the 287 doctors at Gandhi Hospital, around 100 have wrongfully claimed their local status as Hyderabad, alleged Dr P Shravan Kumar, president of Telangana Government Doctors Association, Gandhi Hospital unit, on Wednesday. The association submitted a representation to the advisor to Governor, demanding scrutiny of birth or school certificates of certain doctors who claimed to be Hyderabad locals. A list of doctors based on place of birth and local status has been prepared for repatriation purpose.  “Rule states that only those who pursue academics at a place for four consecutive years can claim to be local. However, many of the doctors who mentioned their local status as Hyderabad cannot do so as they do not fulfil the criteria,” said Dr Shravan.
