Our duties across the state
Under the Andhra Pradesh State Forest Department — with government approval and under various schemes — we work as outsourced employees across many categories, doing our part in forest conservation, wildlife protection and the department's programmes across the state.
Day and night, unmindful of sun or rain — even at risk to our own lives — we carry out our duties for the forests and wildlife of this state.
These jobs sustain our households — our children's education, medical needs and daily living all rest on them.
Many of our members have served the Forest Department without a break for 10, 15, 20 — even 25 years and more.
Outsourced employees working under government-approved schemes, across every wing of the department.
Behind the wheel for beat officers, range officers and emergency wildlife-rescue calls — at any hour.
42 membersRunning division offices — records, permits, GIS data entry and the department's daily paperwork.
36 membersOn foot in the beats — patrolling forest boundaries, preventing encroachment and illegal felling.
58 membersManning forest checkposts round the clock, inspecting vehicles and stopping timber smuggling.
34 membersThe rapid-response teams — anti-smuggling raids, fire-fighting and emergency operations.
28 membersTracking wildlife movement, assisting rescues and managing human–animal conflict situations.
22 membersFollowing elephant herds, alerting villages and protecting both people and elephants from harm.
14 membersBase-camp keepers, nursery workers, watchers and many more categories serving across the state.
14+ membersDespite decades of sincere service, our members face two pressing problems. We raise them respectfully, with one voice.
Prices of essentials, children's education, medical care and everyday living costs have risen sharply — yet our wages have stayed exactly where they were five years ago. We appeal for a fair and timely revision of our salaries.
Members who have served the Forest Department for 10, 15, 20 and even 25+ years still have no assurance about their future. We request the Government to frame a clear policy that continues long-serving outsourced employees and gives them job security.
ఎన్నో సంవత్సరాలుగా అటవీ శాఖకు సేవలందించిన ఉద్యోగులను భవిష్యత్తులో కూడా కొనసాగించే విధంగా ప్రభుత్వం స్పష్టమైన విధానాన్ని రూపొందించి, ఉద్యోగ భద్రత కల్పించాలని మనవి చేస్తున్నాము.
"If one of us faces hardship, all of us stand together." That promise runs through everything we do.
Every member is registered with their category, division and full service history in the association's portal — so decades of service are never lost on paper.
Contributions pooled from members and wings support families in medical emergencies — like the ₹10,000 presented to driver Sri Varma during treatment at Kakinada Government Hospital.
The association represents all categories together — submitting appeals for salary revision, job security and better working conditions on behalf of every member.
A look at what our members do across the divisions — and the days we come together.
