JAMMU, Sept 18: Strongly opposing the Government order asking ‘Darbar’ move employees from Jammu region to resume their duties, State Government Employees Joint Action Committee (SGEJAC), Jammu has urged upon the Chief Secretary to give some more reasonable time to the employees who are still recovering from the state of shock of having been trapped in flood on the building for couple of days without food and water in Srinagar.
Talking to media-persons here today senior members of the SGEJAC, Subash Verma, Sushil Sudan, Suresh Verma and Babu Hussain Malik condemned the Government order forcing Darbar move employees from Jammu region to resume their duties in flood ravaged Kashmir. They termed the Government order as highly unjustified. They said many parts of Srinagar and even Civil Secretariat is in water and there is no place for the employees to live. There is severe scarcity of food and water and under such circumstances asking employees to rush back to duty is highly astonishing.
They appealed the State Chief Minister and the Chief Secretary to review their decision and give some more time to the employees for resuming their duty. They said the situation was not conducive to join and first favourable atmosphere is needed to be created for the employees to work there. Many employees are still in the state of shock and they need some time for rehabilitation.
The SGEJAC members while expressing serious concern over the disaster which hit the parts Kashmir and other areas, said that they were with the victims and their families in this time of crisis. They also expressed their sympathy with those who lost their dear ones in flood and suffered heavy damages and urged upon the Government to provide them relief. They further opined that Civil Secretariat be shifted from Srinagar to Jammu in the better interest of all the people and better functioning of Government.
