Excelsior Correspondent
KISHTWAR, June 13: Chinar Power Projects Workers’ Union (CPPWU), Kishtwar, has expressed anguish over the new recruitment procedure adopted by the district administration for GVK 850MW Rattle HE Project, Drabshalla.
In a meeting of the Union held here today under the chairmanship of Joginder Bhandari, the office bearers of the Union expressed strong resentment over the decision taken in a meeting held at DC Office Complex Kishtwar in connection with the recruitment procedure, which has been widely condemned by unemployed youths of district.
The meeting demanded revoking of Minutes of Meeting issued by DC Kishtwar vide No DC/ K/LA/97-102/14 dated June 11, 2014 in which it was decided that the employment in the project will be made through a proper procedure including finalizing the demand for recruitment of both skilled/unskilled GVK, followed by furnishing the same to DC/Commissioner RR and then screening for granting employment in the project by a committee of officers of GVK/Deputy Director Employment/ Assistant Labour Commissioner.
Terming the new recruitment procedure an absurd mythology, where apprehension of any malpractice could not be ruled out, the meeting demanded revocation of orders issued by the district administration regarding new recruitment procedure.
