The YSR Congress government headed by Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy has been going in for reverse tendering in every irrigation project to unearth corruption indulged in by the previous Telugu Desam Party government.
Now, it is considering introducing reverse tendering system even in various schemes and contracts given in the education department as well. This was declared by minister for education Adimulapu Suresh.
Participating in a function to give away appointment letter to the newly-elected village and ward secretaries at Markapuram in Prakasam district, Suresh alleged that huge corruption had taken place in the education department also during the Chandrababu Naidu regime.
“There was a huge misappropriation of funds in the name of various schemes and projects. Our government will undertake reverse tendering in all such schemes and bring in a transparent rule to end the misuse of funds,” the minister said.
He said that revolutionary transformations are required in the education department to bring accountability in the department.
He said that they would fill the vacancies at various levels in the education department soon.
