Citing an RTI reply, dated February 24, the NTUCT alleged that there were 999 “bogus/backdoor appointments.”
The total number of constables appointed as per the RTI reply was 930 whereas the posts were actually advertised for only 206 vacancies and not 272, the union said. It further informed, citing information from the RTI reply, that 205 personnel were recruited through open recruitment as per the final result. The union thus claimed that the total number of appointments was 1204 while the total post vacancy was 494.
