He also noted that Mohammed Siraj, the T20 World Cup Winner, was given a Group-1 post despite not meeting the technical qualifications, as he only passed intermediate while a degree is required for Group-1 positions.
Revanth went on to say that the government is ready to encourage individuals who excel in sports and promised to provide them with good government job positions, similar to Nikhat and Siraj.
