Quadrant to create 500 jobs in Hanamkonda IT park

Hanamkonda, Telangana: Quadrant Resources, a software company, is all set to begin its operations in the IT park in Madikonda, Hanamkonda district. The company will provide direct employment to local youth in the software sector.

Quadrant Resources is the third major company to set up its office in Warangal after Cyient and Tech Mahindra. The state government has allotted 50,000 square feet of space to the company and invested Rs 35 crore for its establishment.

The company has already hired 100-150 local youth and plans to create 500 jobs in the next two years. Quadrant Resources CEO Vamshi Reddy said that he decided to set up his company in Warangal to help engineering students build a career.

“Many engineering students from Warangal prefer to migrate to metropolitan cities like Hyderabad and other states, as there are no job opportunities here. I wanted to create job opportunities for local youth in their own city,” Reddy said.

The Telangana government is promoting the IT sector in Warangal and other Tier-II cities. The state government has set a target of creating one lakh IT jobs in Warangal by 2025.

The establishment of Quadrant Resources is a positive development for the IT sector in Warangal and Telangana. It will provide much-needed employment opportunities to local youth and boost the economic growth of the region.

Telangana High Court Confirms Order to Reconduct Group I Examination

The Telangana High Court division bench of Justice Abhinand Kumar Shavili and Justice J Anil Kumar on Wednesday confirmed the single judge order that directed the reconducting of the Group I examination.

The State had moved an appeal against the order stating that lakhs of aspirants would be put to a disadvantage for the baseless apprehensions of a few petitioners. The State said that not implementing biometrics does not establish any chance of impersonation or malpractices. The State also said that even the OMR sheets had a barcode to properly verify the credentials of the candidates.

However, hearing the rival submissions made by both parties, the court came to the conclusion that when the notification and web note prescribed a process and procedure, the same could not be violated. Accordingly, the bench dismissed the appeal filed by the State government.

Crocodile Rescued from Stagnant Pool in Hanamkonda

A crocodile was rescued from a pool of stagnant water in Hanamkonda, Telangana, on Friday. The crocodile was spotted by locals near a residential area, and the Forest department was immediately alerted.

The residents of Hanamkonda have expressed their gratitude to the forest staff for rescuing the crocodile and releasing it back into its natural habitat.

Telangana Government to Launch Free Breakfast Scheme for Government School Students

In a nutritious Dasara gift to government school students in Telangana, the state government is set to launch a free breakfast scheme on October 24. The scheme, called ‘Chief Minister’s Breakfast’ (Mukhyamantri Alpahara), will benefit over 23 lakh students in over 28,000 schools across the state.

The breakfast will be prepared at the school and served steaming hot to students before the morning prayer. The menu will include a variety of nutritious dishes, such as millet ‘rava khichdi’ with ‘sambar’, ‘rava pongal’ with ‘sambar’, and wheat ‘rava khichdi’ with ‘chutney’.

The scheme has been launched to address the nutritional status of schoolgoing children and alleviate the burden of working mothers. It is also expected to improve academic performance.

In addition to the free breakfast, the state government already provides free mid-day meals to government and local body school children. The meals include a variety of nutritious dishes, such as fine rice, dal, sambar, vegetable curry, legume vegetable curry, and special rice like vegetable biryani, ‘bagara’ rice, and ‘pulihora.

The government has also included eggs in the mid-day meal, which are provided to students thrice a week. The Central and State governments share the expenditure on the mid-day meal served to classes I to VIII students in 60:40 ratio. However, the State government alone bears the meal cost for classes IX and X students along with egg cost for classes I to X students.

The launch of the free breakfast scheme is a welcome move by the Telangana government. It will help to ensure that all schoolgoing children have access to nutritious food, which is essential for their physical and mental development.
