Group-1: Aspirants urge govt to implement 1:100 ratio

WITH rumours circulating about the announcement of Group 1 Mains examinations, aspirants are urging the State government to reconsider and re-evaluate prelims results by implementing a 1:100 ratio, which is also used for the recruitment of Group 2 officers and Deputy DEOs, to ensure fairness and broader opportunities.

They demand the selection of 100 candidates for each post and the release of revised results. Additionally, the Group 1 aspirants criticized the previous YSRCP government for continuous delays caused by changing the syllabus and a lack of access to proper State government academy material, which has hindered their qualifying chances, especially for candidates from rural areas.

Raising concerns over inconsistency in the selection procedure, an aspirant named Gayathri from Vizianagaram pointed out that while a 1:100 ratio was applied for Group 2, it was omitted for Group 1.
