The scheme of training programme for the post of Deputy Collector has been prescribed by the Government in the reference 2nd read above.

W hereas the Government have examined the matter further with the report submitted by the Chief Commissioner of Land Administration, Andhra Pradesh vide reference 7th read above and observe that the appointment of Sri Kidambi Srikanth, Badminton Champion, as Probationary Deputy Collector under category-II of Andhra Pradesh Civil Services (Executive Branch) Rules, 1992 issued vide reference 1st read above is subject to the condition that he shall undergo the prescribed training of 72 weeks as per Rule 9 and to pass departmental tests as prescribed under Rule 10 of the said rules along with certain other conditions.

Therefore decided to relax rules in his favour and exempt him from undergoing the prescribed training and from passing the required departmental tests.

Accordingly, the Government hereby relax the Rule 9 and 10 of Andhra Pradesh Civil Services (Executive Branch) Rules, 1992 in favour of Sri Kidambi Srikanth, Badminton Player and appointed as Probationary Deputy Collector and exempt him from undergoing the prescribed 72 weeks of mandatory training and from passing of the requisite departmental tests prescribed in the said rules.
