AFTF Thanks People, Govt, AAPSU After 80:20 Recruitment Ratio Move
Itanagar, August 14: The Arunachal Frontier Tribal Front (AFTF) has expressed gratitude to the people of Arunachal Pradesh, the state government and the newly elected AAPSU team for their support during its five-year-long movement against the 80:20 recruitment ratio.
Addressing a press conference in Itanagar, the AFTF welcomed the Arunachal Pradesh Cabinetโs decision to introduce uniform eligibility criteria for government recruitment in the state.
Under the new framework, candidates will be required to possess a valid Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC), APST certificate, and proficiency in any notified Indigenous Tribal Language of Arunachal Pradesh.
The AFTF termed the Cabinet decision a significant outcome of its prolonged movement, stating that the development marks an important step towards addressing concerns surrounding recruitment eligibility in the state.
The organisation also thanked all sections of society who supported and stood with the movement throughout its five-year-long struggle.
The AFTF expressed hope that the new recruitment framework would ensure greater clarity and uniformity in the eligibility process for government jobs in Arunachal Pradesh.
