HYDERABAD: Around 9,500 state-cadre employees will be allocated to Telangana government on provisional basis to work for the T-state form June 2. Among them, there are around 300 to 400 Seemandhra employees.
According to sources, the State government officials submitted a report to this effect to the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) in Delhi on Wednesday. The related file may go to the Prime Minister on Thursday and the allocation of state-cadre employees will be done on Friday.
According to sources, the State government identified around 65,000 state-cadre employees to be allocated between Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states.
They include around 28,000 field level officers. There are some vacant posts too. After deleting the field-level posts and vacant posts, the actual number of personnel is arrived at.
After all these calculations, the State government officials informed the Centre that around 9,500 state-cadre employees will be allocated to Telangana on provisional basis. Of the 9,500 employees, around 300 to 400 belong to Seemandhra. But, the total number of Telangana employees to be allocated will be known only after Friday.
Meanwhile, Chief Secretary PK Mohanty will conduct a meeting with the Telangana and the Seemandhra employees’ unions at the Secretariat on Thursday to clear their doubts on the allocation of state-cadre employees.
