Releasing this as an "Ugadi gift" is a nice touch, connecting policy with culture. However, the real gift will be a smooth, corruption-free recruitment process. The numbers sound impressive, but execution is key. Fingers crossed for all the candidates.

Good news for sure, but 10,000 vacancies across the state is just a drop in the ocean. Lakhs of graduates are unemployed. The focus on private sector jobs through investments is the right long-term strategy. Government jobs alone can't solve this crisis.

Finally some concrete planning! The breakup by department and date is very helpful. My sister is preparing for Group-II. Now she can plan her study schedule properly. Hope the syllabus is also released well in advance. #JobsForAndhraYouth

Promises are one thing, delivery is another. The government claims 6 lakh+ private sector jobs? Where is the data to verify this? A job calendar is a good first step, but we need accountability on the total 20 lakh jobs promise. Show us the real numbers.
