Er Firdous Ahmed Bhat, president MEGA, also expressed his views on the occasion about the efforts and initiatives taken by the Association for redressal of long pending issues of Mechanical fraternity. He lamented that nothing substantial on ground has been done by Government on issues like implementation of assured career progression (Running grades), revival of Stores and Procurement Department (SPD), pay anomaly of JEs, enhancement in FTA for JE/AEE, restoration of deputation posts in JKPDC, JKPCC, JKCEMENTS etc and creation of posts in Disaster Management, Health, Horticulture and Agriculture etc.
