Candidates of 69000 teacher recruitment are continuously staging protests in the state and putting forward their side. On Friday, the candidates protested in front of the residence of UP government minister Dr. Sanjay Nishad and raised slogans. The candidates have accused the government of committing reservation scam in recruitment and have demanded appointment of backward class and scheduled caste candidates.
Before this, the candidates also gheraoed the residences of BJP state president, UP deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya, minister Om Prakash Rajbhar and Ashish Patel.

Candidates will meet Chief Minister Yogi on September 7
On Thursday, Panchayati Raj Minister Om Prakash Rajbhar’s residence was gheraoed. The candidates were demanding that the High Court’s decision be followed and appointment be given. Minister Om Prakash Rajbhar met the protesting candidates. He heard the problems of the candidates and took a memorandum. Rajbhar assured that he will arrange a meeting of the candidates’ delegation with Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on September 7. This matter will be resolved soon. He also asked for the names of five candidates to meet the CM.
Amarendra Patel, who was leading the protest, said that the candidates have been roaming on the streets for four years. Now that the court’s decision has come, it is not being followed. The court has cancelled the original selection list of the recruitment and ordered the government to issue a new list in three months following the reservation rules, but the government has not started any work till now. This has caused resentment among the candidates.
