Better connectivity with new mandals

The creation of new mandals as part of new districts will improve the road connectivity in the interior areas in Mancherial and parent Adilabad districts.

The news is making rounds that state government is planning to create new mandal Penchikalpet from existing Bejjur mandal and Chinthalamanapalli from existing Kautala mandal and Adilabad rural mandal from existing Adilabdad mandal.

It is said that two new mandals are being created in Macherial district while one in parent Adilabad district.

Already, inter- state bridge on river Pranahitha is under construction that will boost the transportation between Telangana and border Maharashtra.

Two lane –road is being laid between Sirpur (T) to Kautala mandals. There is a proposal of laying two-lane road between Kautala to Eturunagaram of Warangal district.

The existing inter- state bridge at Venkatraopet in Sirpur (T) mandal is already enabling the transportation between coal belt area of Telangana and Chandrapur district of Maharashtra.

C. Mallaiah of Kautala mandal headquarters said the creation of new mandals Penchikalpet and Chinthalamanapalli would improve the road connectivity in the interiors along the river Pranahitha.

He said there is an existing single road to Penchikalpet, 30 km from Bejjur mandal headquarters and Chinthalamanapalli, 15 km from Kautala mandal headquarters.

The state government is laying new roads linking the mandal headquarters and also internal roads in the mandals. This may go a long way in case of interior Sirpur (T) Assembly constituency as far as road connectivity is concerned.

High-level bridges coming up at various places replacing the low-level bridges which have become a hurdle in free of transportation in the monsoon as they are being submerged in the flood water and affecting the road connectivity to the interior areas in the Sirpur (T) Assembly Constituency.

The same is the case with the creation of new mandal Adilabad rural in the Adilabad Assembly constituency. There are many interior Adivasi gudems in the Adilabad mandal and new Adilabad rural mandal is being created now with these interior villages.

There is no proper road connectivity to many interior Adivasis gudems including Wanvat, Shashidari Khanapur in the existing Adilabad mandal. The Adilabad rural mandal may be created with Mavala as its headquarters.  

Creation of districts will badly affect DSC

The creation of new districts is likely to hit the recruitment of teacher posts under DSC in the state. The state government has announced that it would give notification for 9,000 teacher posts but continued the academic year with Vidya Volunteers. 

The state government should adjust the existing posts before giving notification for new recruitment.

The unemployed- youth waiting for DSC disappointed a lot with the division of existing districts, as they will become non- locals to the new districts and already teacher posts were exhausted in government schools around the parent district headquarters and no scope for new posts.

Posts are lying vacant in the government schools in the interior areas in the new districts to be created - Mancherial and Nirmal but unemployed youth do not get the full benefit of those teacher posts to be recruited in future.

Hardly find 30 vacancies of SGT teacher posts while School Assistant posts were a surplus in the government schools in the Adilabad, Bela, Jainad, Talamdugu and Tamsi mandals while hundreds of vacancies in the government schools in the areas in Nirmal and Mancherial.

A large number of government teachers are working in Mancherial and Nirmal areas as there were no vacancies in the Adilabad area.

There are 46 Zilla Parishad High School in plain area and 53 in the Agency areas in the Adilabad Taluq. Meanwhile, there are 106 high schools in Nirmal area that too in the fully plain area.  There are more vacancies of teacher posts in interior Tanoor and Kubheer mandals sharing border with the Maharashtra

District general secretary of TUSTF A. Venkat said filling government teachers posts is not an easy to process in the wake of the creation of the new district and added that state government has to first adjust posts lying vacant with the native teachers working in other places going by their bonafide and service book.

The state government will give notification for the left over vacancies only after completing this process and it can create supernumerary posts instead filling up regular posts if it is necessary.

Teachers Union demanding the state government to transfer the non- tribals teacher working in tribal areas to plain areas and fill up the vacancies with the tribals as per the G NO: 3.
