General19976 sections

The Andhra Pradesh Prohibition of Absorption of Employees of State Government Public Sector Undertakings into Public Service Act, 1997 prohibits the direct transfer of public sector enterprise employees into regular state government jobs. Applying to workers in state owned corporations and public undertakings across Andhra Pradesh, the law explicitly abolishes supernumerary posts created for such transfers, overriding previous contracts or judicial orders. However, it allows eligible employees to receive benefits under authorized rehabilitation schemes. This Act matters because it ensures merit based public service recruitment, prevents back door entry into government cadres, and maintains administrative efficiency.
