Governor Biswa Bhusan Harichandan reviewed the performance of the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC), during the 2021-22 financial year, at Raj Bhavan on January 3 (Tuesday).
The Governor said that many youth were waiting for recruitment to posts in in the government departments, and asked the APPSC to release the job notifications as per the schedule.
APPSC Chairman Gautam Sawang, who submitted the annual report to the Governor, said that the Commission had issued 24 notifications last year, and the recruitment process is under way.
“The Commission could not complete the schedule on time owing to legal problems. However, efforts are being made to fill all the vacancies as per the notification schedules,” he said.
