JAMMU, Oct 5: Highlighting their grievances, the Jammu University Non-Gazetted Employees Union has appealed the Prof Amitabh Mattoo, former Vice-Chancellor and Advisor to the Chief Minister Mufti Mohd Sayeed, for his personal intervention to ensure that their long pending demands are fulfilled.
Talking to media persons on the campus, here today, the NGEU president Vijay Kumar accused the JU authorities of not pursuing their cases, likes regularization of some eligible employees, pay scale of Rs 2750, creation of the posts of Sweepers, etc.
“The demand of pay scale of Rs 2750 was approved in the Jammu University Council meeting in 2009 during the tenure of then Vice-Chancellor Prof Amitabh Mattoo, but till now it is the midway,” he said and added that similarly the case of Regularization of four employees was lying pending with Financial Advisor for the last two years as the JU authorities did not follow it.
In addition to this, NGEU leader said, the case of Security Advisor Guar Singh is also lying with the Financial Advisor for further perusal notwithstanding a favorable Cabinet decision in this regard. “For creation of Sweeper posts, the item was placed in the Syndicate meeting in 2015 but instead of taking a favorable decision, the same file was also sent to Financial Advisor of the University,” Vijay Kumar lamented and appealed Prof Amitabh Mattoo to personally intervene for helping the class IV employees of Jammu University.
The NGEU also informed about the general body meeting of the Association next week to discuss all the issues and demand, for which enough time has already been given to the concerned authorities.
Vice president of NGEU Suraj Prakash, general secretary Banarsi Lal, Raj Kumar Swarn Singh, and other members of the union were also present in the press conference.
