While the release of the Mega DSC 2024 notification is delayed due to the ongoing SC classification process, the education department has urged candidates to continue their preparation without waiting for the official notification. In response to requests from several MLCs, the government has taken steps to ensure that the syllabus is released ahead of the notification.

What to Expect from Mega DSC 2024?

The Mega DSC 2024 aims to fill a total of 16,347 teacher positions across the state of Andhra Pradesh. However, the release of the notification has been delayed further due to the classification issues.

The Board of Intermediate Education has taken a compassionate step by deciding to provide duplicate certificates free of cost to individuals who have lost their certificates due to the floods. Secretary Kritika Shukla announced that certified copies and duplicate certificates will be given at no charge to those affected by the floods in Vijayawada and other affected regions. The directive has been issued to Regional Inspecting Officers (RIOs) and District Inspecting Education Officers (DIEOs) to spread awareness about this initiative in flood-affected areas.

Affected candidates can apply for copies of their certificates by contacting the principal and district authorities of the college they attended. Alternatively, they can reach out to the board officials directly for assistance. Besides certificates, various other documents like Aadhaar, birth, death, marriage certificates, vehicle registrations, and more were also damaged in the floods.

The coalition government has made a decision to provide duplicate certificates, official documents, and certified copies to those who suffered losses. Minister Nara Lokesh recently oversaw a review meeting to address the issue of students who lost their certificates. Minister Lokesh instructed officials to promptly issue free certificates to the affected students and to establish full Digital Locker facilities to streamline future certificate verification processes, including for APPSC exam candidates.

Highlighting that the scheme will be inclusive of students from both public and private schools, Minister Lokesh mentioned that multiple students from a single family may benefit from the scheme. “Discussions are underway with authorities from Uttar Pradesh and Delhi to finalize the implementation strategies,” he remarked.

Members of the council observed that the previous YSRC government provided financial support under the ‘Amma Vodi’ scheme, granting students Rs 15,000. However, a portion of Rs 2,000 was reportedly allocated for other purposes, resulting in beneficiaries receiving only Rs 13,000.

Additionally, Minister Lokesh expressed intentions to reassess the agreements made by the prior administration with the Educational Testing Service (India) for conducting assessments, including the TOEFL exam components assessing students’ language skills. While not opposed to English as a medium of instruction for Class 3 students, he noted the limited availability of teachers trained for such classes. Considering the TOEFL exam’s focus on American English skills, Minister Lokesh suggested that training for Class 3 students might not be necessary.
