The new government stopped using their services. In the last cabinet meeting, it was decided that Volunteers and Secretariat Staff will be merged into other departments but there is no roadmap or rules framed for this process.
So, their future continues to be uncertain. Meanwhile, Volunteers have started protests and are seen bad-mouthing the Government.

Sakshi TV is giving extensive coverage to these protests indicating what may be the idea.
They are demanding that they should be taken into service and paid 10,000 Rupees a month.

While there are 2,63,000 volunteers in the state, 1,07,000 have resigned just before elections and worked for YSR Congress. Only 1,10,000 volunteers are still there.
The Resigned Volunteers are saying that they resigned under the pressure of YSR Congress leaders and their resignations should be canceled and be taken into service.
But then, the public sentiment is not in favor of the volunteers. Almost everyone knows they are YSR Congress agents and they do not see a merit in the argument that the new government should continue them.
If they continue, they will snoop on the public and hand over the Government data to the Opposition.
So, there is no reason why this Government should care for the Volunteers.
The Prime responsibility of the Volunteers is the Pension distribution. It is happening door-to-door seamlessly without the Volunteers. So, people also do not feel the heat.
