Nightwatchman bags two government jobs, one as a junior lecturer; the third on the way

The 31-year-old Golle Praveen Kumar cracked the competitive exam and got two government jobs, with a third job likely to come his way. Praveen is all set to take classes at a government institution. While he has already received an appointment letter for a postgraduate teacher’s post, he has made it to the final list of junior lectures too.

University officials feel that there is a possibility of Praveen getting a job as a trained graduate teacher too. With these appointments, Praveen will be eligible to teach high school students in classes 11 and 12. He will also get a monthly salary package ranging from Rs 73,000 to Rs 83,000. Praveen hails from a small village in the Mancherial district of Telangana. Currently, he gets a salary of Rs.9,000. Although Praveen has many job offers, he has said in an interview that he will accept the post of junior lecturer.

In an interview with a news agency, Praveen revealed that he took up a night watchman job as an outsourcing employee at an educational multimedia research centre to have enough time to prepare for government exams. This gave him more time to study.
