Andhra Pradesh government has launched a probe into the irregularities in giving promotions to ineligible lecturers in the technical education department. The probe followed a directive from the state vigilance commissioner. According to preliminary information, the state government has lost nearly₹300 crore due to the payment of higher scales to the ineligible lecturers in the last 5-6 years.
The issue came to light after a lecturer lodged a complaint with the vigilance commissioner. The people who got irregular promotions are believed to have suppressed the facts as they occupied senior positions in the technical education department. As per All-India Council for Technical Education, those, who completed technical degrees through distance education are ineligible to become principals and higher-level posts like joint directors.
