While the recruitment drive is commendable, I hope they maintain the same efficiency in results declaration. Last time there were unnecessary delays. Teachers shape our future - their selection process must be timely and fair.

Good to see exam centers in other states too. Many Andhra people work outside and this helps them appear without travelling back. The biometric system is a game-changer against proxy candidates. 👍

Section 144 around exam centers is necessary but creates problems for local residents. Couldn't they find less disruptive locations? Otherwise, the arrangements seem well-planned.

As a teacher myself, I'm happy to see such large-scale recruitment. Our schools need young, energetic teachers. But I hope they focus on quality training after selection too. Mere recruitment isn't enough for quality education.
