Syed Hurairah Hyderabad: The COVID - 19 pandemic took a toll on the government's spending on welfare schemes for minorities. This is abundantly illustrated by the fact that the Minorities Welfare Department (MWD), was able to spend much less than half of a total allocation of about Rs. 1,513 crore. Figures released by yourti.in, an online Right to Information portal, shows that the Telangana government had made an allocation of Rs. 1,513.46 crore for the MWD and the several agencies for minorities welfare such as the Urdu Academy, Telangana Minorities Residential Educational Institutions Society and the Telangana State Minorities Finance Corporation. Of this figure, the government released only Rs 658.42 crores so far. The last time poor expenditure by the MWD was witness was in the FY 2018-19 when it spent only Rs. 1,214.73 crores of a total budgetary allocation of Rs. 1,973 crores....

Only 42 got state jobs last year: RTI - Deccan Chronicle | DailyHunt
HYDERABAD: The Telangana State Public Services Commission (TSPSC) has so far issued notifications for filling up of 36,643 vacancies in the government since July 2015. However, only 29,015 jobs have so far been allotted. The number of vacancies due to court cases or issues related to weightage of marks is 5,916. Many employee organisations, apart from political leaders, however, maintain that the number of jobs filled so far is far too small. The Telangana Unemployed Joint Action Committee (JAC) says vacancies in government jobs are actually as high as 2.20 lakh. An RTI filed by activist Kareem Ansari, who runs website YouRTI.com, sought information on the number of jobs filled since 2014, along with a year-wise breakdown.
