JAMMU, Aug 20: A delegation of retired employees of Jammu and Kashmir Tourism Development (JKTDC), held a massive protest demonstration outside the office of Managing Director (MD), in Srinagar.
They alleged that their arrears including 7th Pay Commission arrears, gratuity and other pending salaries from January 01, 2016, are being deliberately delayed for the reasons best known to the concerned administration. The delegation told the media persons that their families are at the verge of starvation as they neither have any other source of income nor they are getting pension.
The retirees have many times approached even advisors and other senior officers to register their complaints for sympathetic consideration but the administration is not paying any heed to our genuine demand which is anti human act and injustice with those who have served the corporation in difficult times. The retirees further alleged that some officers in the Corporation have selectively released 7th Pay Commission arrears in favour of some employees but ignored them under different contexts.
They appealed the LG to personally intervene and get the arrears released in their favour at the earliest.
