# 4,000 Mega DSC-2025 teachers rally in Kurnool against YSRCP 2026-08-08T20:03:35+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Nearly 4,000 teachers appointed through Andhra Pradesh's Mega DSC-2025 recruitment held a rally in Kurnool on Saturday, accusing the YSRCP of a deliberate misinformation campaign. The teachers, who gathered under a 'Teachers' Self-Respect Rally' banner, defended the process as transparent and merit-based, involving exams, merit lists, and certificate verification. They challenged the opposition to produce evidence of irregularities, stating their jobs were earned through hard work and qualification, not favouritism. YSRCP MLC L Appi Reddy countered by demanding a CBI probe and questioning alleged changes in sports quota and merit lists. He also called for Education Minister Nara Lokesh's resignation. The party plans to hold rallies in all 175 assembly constituencies on August 10, involving students and unemployed youth. Former minister Sake Sailajanath urged the government to answer serious questions about the recruitment process, which the YSRCP claims was flawed from question paper preparation to appointments. ## Coverage - telanganatoday.com - timesnownews.com Tags: Andhra Pradesh education, Kurnool rally, Mega DSC-2025, TDP government, teacher recruitment, YSRCP Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/4000-mega-dsc-teachers-rally-in-kurnool-against-ysrcp-claims/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
