ORDER:
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.
NOTIFICATION
In exercise
of the powers conferred by the proviso to Article 309 of the
Constitution
of India, the Governor of Andhra Pradesh hereby makes the following adhoc rule,
namely:-
ADHOC RULE
Notwithstanding
anything contained in the Andhra Pradesh State and Subordinate Service
Rules or in the Special or Adhoc Rules for any State and Subordinate Service, the
maximum age limit prescribed in the said rules for appointment by direct recruitment

recruitment to the various categories of posts to be notified from the issuance of this GO
and up to 30.09.2016 by all the recruiting agencies in the State of Andhra
Pradesh. The age concession over and above the Upper Age Limit shall also be allowed
to the categories as provided under Rule 12 of the Andhra Pradesh State and
Subordinate Service Rules, 1996.
Provided
that nothing in this rule shall apply for direct recruitment to the
posts of
uniformed services of Police, Excise, Fire, Prisons and Forest departments for which
physical standards have been prescribed in the State and Subordinate Service Rules or in
the relevant special or adhoc rules.
