KATHUA, Jan 8: The workers of PHE, PDD and other departments from the tehsils of Billawar, Hiranagar and other areas of Kathua district staged a massive demonstration at Kali Bari to protest against the negative provisions of SRO 520 of 2017 issued for the regularisation of casual and other workers which has hurt their aspirations.
The protest was held under the banner of Low Paid Employees Federation led by its Kathua district president, Kabla Singh. In his address, he said though State Government took a bold decision to regularise 60,000 employees in a one go which the previous Governments were evading but some provisions laid down in the SRO 520 of 2017 are against the genuine needs and aspirations of the workers. He demanded that these provisions be removed immediately.
