'Uncle-Nephew Culture Ended': CM on Recruitment Reforms

Earlier on May 3, Yogi Adityanath criticised what he termed the "uncle-nephew" culture in recruitment processes while distributing appointment letters to newly selected candidates in the Food Safety and Drug Administration Department in Lucknow.

Addressing the gathering, the Chief Minister alleged that previous recruitment systems were marred by corruption, favouritism and bribery. "Otherwise, what used to happen earlier? The chairman of the recruitment board used to sit on one side, and the uncle-nephew duo used to set out to collect money. Everyone knew it. Names used to be written on pieces of paper," he said.

The Chief Minister said his government had transformed the recruitment process into a transparent and merit-based system. "If we want to stop dishonest politicians and corrupt bureaucrats, we must start from ourselves. The common people want to live their lives honestly," he added.

Yogi Adityanath also said that Uttar Pradesh's earlier image as a "BIMARU" state was linked to corruption, discrimination and irregularities in governance and recruitment systems. (ANI)
