The opposition members including K Laxman (BJP), Rammohan Reddy (Congress), S Venkata Veeraiah (TDP) and Sunam Rajaiah (CPM) who all took part in the short discussion on 'filling vacancies in government departments and unemployment issue', demanded that the government issue a calendar indicating its year-long plans for the recruitment process.
