JAMMU, Sept 16: A delegation of people whose cases under SRO 43/120 and SRO 43/376 are still pending called on former Deputy Chief Minister, Kavinder Gupta here, today. They appealed him to take the matter with Governor, Satya Pal Malik for issuing approval for the appointment.
Gupta was apprised that the 100 compassionate appointment cases under the SRO were recommended by General Administrative Department (GAD) to the Chief Secretary but the cases from Srinagar were approved and the candidates from Jammu region are still waiting for the appointment which is discrimination at administrative end. They further said that all the files have been annexed with the original qualification and other documents meaning that the candidates have no other choice to fill the forms for regular vacancies.
The candidates appealed to take the matter with Union Government also so that the justice is done to the aggrieved. They handed over the representation to be forwarded to the concerned for early approval of the cases.
Gupta assured the delegation that the matter will be discussed with S.P. Malik, and with Union Government. Gupta said that this type of discrimination can’t be accepted. He said that BJP believes in ‘Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas’. Gupta said he will be visiting Governor soon and matter shall be resolved as soon as possible.
