Hyderabad, Oct.26 (NSS): BC Political JAC Chairman Rachala Yugandhar Goud today appealed to the state government to re-examine the new excise stations set up unscientifically by the previous government. A memorandum in this regard was handed over to state Excise Minister Jupally Krishna Rao and principal secretary of excise department on Saturday by the JAC. Later, the JAC chairman Yugandhar held a press conference at the city based NSS News Centre.
Speaking on the occasion, Goud alleged that balanagar, Qutbullapur Malkajgiri, Uppal, Ghatkesar, Saroornagar, Hayatnagar, Shamshabad, Lingampally, Patancheru, Secunderabad, Musheerabad, Ameerpet and Hanumakonda excise stations were bifurcated into two by not following any scientific method for the postings of some officials and at the behest of some community leaders during the previous government.
He said that there was a lack of scientific method in setting up of the stations and alleged that they were arbitrarily divided without taking into account the number of crimes or geographical area within the limits of those stations.
He questioned as to why excise stations like Dhoolpet , which has the highest crime rate, was not divided into two stations while station with the lowest crime rate Uppal was divided into two stations? He asked the state government as to why the Medak excise station, which has eight mandals was not divided into two stations ?
He said that If the stations had been divided on the basis of geography, the excise stations like Mahabubnagar, Nizamabad, Kothakota, Nalgonda, Shadnagar and Karimnagar would have been divided into two stations .
Goud said that It was not a proper decision to allot posts at the newly set up stations from various districts i.e. Hyderabad Enforcement, Dhoolpet, Ranga Reddy Enforcement, BMP Bulgera, Nandini Check Post, Krishna Check Post, Zaheerabad Check Post and DTF Gadwal instead of sanctioning new posts for all the new stations.
He said that the setting up of 14 new excise stations would put a heavy financial burden on the state government and at least one inspector for each station, two sub-inspectors, two head constables and seven constables will have to be provided for each of the 14 new stations besides and one vehicle and driver for each station and added that the adjustment of funds required for the maintenance of the stations would also be difficult. Leaders of the organisation Badesab, Saibaba, Suman, Nagesh, Naveen and others participated in this program
