JAMMU, Dec 21: Flaying the ‘suppression, exploitation and harassment’ of lower rung employees by successive State Governments, Harsh Dev Singh, Chairman JKNPP demanded release of long pending wages and regularization of services of DRWs, need based workers, casual labourers and contractual working staff in various government departments.
