State govt orders to be issued in Telugu too

The state government has made a key decision regarding the issue of its orders, and has decided to issue orders in both English and Telugu and directed all the departments to follow the rule.

The General Administration Department (GAD) has advised all the departments to upload the orders issued in English first and issue the same in Telugu within two days.

The government departments have been advised to utilise the services of the Directorate of Translation for this purpose.

General Admission Department Chief Secretary Suresh Kumar issued orders to this effect on 3 January.
