Sir,
Since holidays calender for Govt offices and schools stand issued with total number of holidays comprising both National and State count 55 days. The holidays calender of the Civil Sectt in J&K rises to 104 days because of the fact that Civil Sectt remain closed on Saturdays and Sundays. Moreover more than two weeks are spend on the move of the Civil Sectt to the summer and winter capitals of the State. On Fridays also, the number of employees in the Civil Sectt do not turn up for work in afternoon as is observed. In addition to this employees strikes have also added fuel to the fire. It has been calculated that working period shortens to 100 days only.
In the valley situation is very sad, the regular hartals and militants threats have crippled the work culture of the province. It is said that during last quarter century 10 years have gone wasted in the valley in hartals, stone throwing and curfew so to say. The work culture in the valley has suffered a lot.
In short we can say that J&K has become a holiday State. Most of the people have lost the spirit of hardwork in the State. It is also surprising that our ministers also remain often on tours. This has grossly affected our State exchequer and work in the offices remain suspended for long because of their absence. People suffer for no fault of theirs. To make our state progressive we have to expand our working period in the State and maintain peace for the good of the people.
Yours etc….
