ORDER:

1. The Government is keen to fill up vacant posts under various categories in the State of Andhra Pradesh. Accordingly, the Recruiting Agencies are notifying the vacancies from time to time.
2. As the direct recruitment is being conducted after some gap, the need for enhancing the upper age limit from 34 years to 40 years is necessitated due to inevitability of bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh and consequent fall out shrinking opportunities to the educated un-employee youth in the Andhra Pradesh. The opportunities that existed before the bifurcation of combined AP were lost after the bifurcation of the State. Hence the proposal to enhance the age limit from 34 years to 40 years became urgent need of the hour. Accordingly, the following adhoc rule is issued raising the upper age limit of 34 years prescribed in Rule 12 of the Andhra Pradesh State and Subordinate Service Rules, 1996, by six years for the recruitments.
3. The following notification will be published in the Andhra Pradesh Gazette.
