JAMMU: Airing political views on personal social media accounts could now land Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) Government employees in trouble.
The J&K Government today barred its employees from using their social media accounts for any political activity by amending the conduct rules for them.
The Government has added a sub-rule in the Jammu and Kashmir Government Employees Conduct rules which states that no Government employee shall engage in any criminal, dishonest, immoral or notoriously disgraceful conduct on social media which may be prejudicial to the Government.
“They shall also not use their personal social media accounts for any political activity or endorse the posts or tweets or blogs of any political figure,” the rule states. (AGENCIES)
