JAMMU, June 7: Describing the new recruitment rules 2020 as a cruel joke with the educated unemployed youth of J&K, Harsh Dev Singh, chairman JKNPP and former Minister today torched the effigy of the Government and sought modification of the new rules with repeal of SRO-202.
He said that the Government notification of 4th June notifying the special recruitment rules had come as a bolt from the blue for the aspiring candidates who had pinned high hopes from the Government. “The educated youth had been made to wait for long by the present dispensation on the assurances that an employment bonanza was in the pipeline that would address the concerns of the unemployed and redress all their past grievances. The recently issued SRO 184 however has spilled the beans and revealed the BJP led Government in its true colours,” said Singh.
The former Minister said that the very fact, that all such selections would be held as per special recruitment rules of 2015 i.e., SRO-202, has come as a shocker for the lakhs of unemployed youth and exposed the Government for its haughty and supercilious claims and lofty slogans of youth empowerment being made ever since the saffron regime ascended the throne of power.
Pointing towards the salient features of the new recruitment rules, Singh said that all such appointments shall be on temporary basis with the new appointees getting barely the minimum scale of pay and no increments, no DA, no HRA and no CCA. After five years of probation, the Government would decide whether to give them a test or further training before taking a decision with regard to their regularization, revealed Singh.
He further said that the freezing of district level and division level posts by opening them for competition at UT level would operate very harshly against the candidates of remote districts. Seeking withdrawal of the SRO-202 and modification of new rules, Singh cautioned the Government to refrain from testing the patience of the teeming unemployed youth of the UT.
