JAMMU, May 27: Jammu Province People’s forum (JPPF) today urged upon the Lt Governor of J&K to make all recruitment on regular basis and not under SRO 202.
This crucial issue of youth with regard to employment was discussed threadbare in a meeting of the Forum held here today. While welcoming the step of LG GC Murmu to advertise nearly 10,000 posts for the youth of J&K UT, members of the forum hoped that recruitment on these posts will be done on regular basis and not under SRO 202.
As the SRO 202 is discriminatory in nature and does not provide the due share for which the youth are entitled, therefore JPPF demanded that SRO 202 should be revoked and no recruitment should be made as it is a sheer humiliation to the youth.
The Forum members observed that the financial part of the candidate selected under SRO 202 is just half of the remuneration of the candidate selected under regular mode. The JPPF questioned that when the people selected under SRO 202 has to perform the same job profile as in the case of candidates selected under regular mode then why a candidate is given less salary.
“Moreover, SRO 202 is an old document and should not be made alive in the newly formed Union Territory of J&K and it should be made ineffective immediately,” they asserted and appealed the LG to look into the matter personally so that the youth of J&K are not deprived of the opportunities available for none of their fault.
The members who discussed the matter were Pavitar Singh, M S Katoch, Avinash Bhatia, Inderjeet Khajuria, M L Sharma, Resham Singh, Surendr Vir, Charanjit Kumar, Gurmit Singh, Rajeev Mahajan, Pritam Sharma, Sunita Sharma, Madan Sharma, Kuldeep Singh Katoch and R R Sharma.
