JAMMU, July 13: Emphasizing on the need for immediate amending SRO 64, National Mazdoor Conference (NMC) today urged upon the State Government to formulate a comprehensive policy for regularization of all daily rated workers, including casual and seasonal labourers engaged in various departments of the State Government after March 31, 1994.
Addressing a largely attended NMC workers rally at Rani Park here, NMC president, Subhash Shastri said these daily rated workers should be regularized before the enforcement of model code of conduct due to ensuing Assembly elections in the State likely to be held in next few months, so that confusion and uncertainty among these workers could come to end.
He said early amendment in SRO 64 is the need of hour and it should be immediately effected so that new regularization policy becomes operational from Independence Day as gift to working class.
Alleging that these daily rated workers are facing financial hardships due to price hike as their services have not been regularized for last 18 to 23 years nor they are getting their salary in time, Shastri demanded early release of their wages pending for months together.
Pleading the cause of State Government employees and pensioners, Shastri also asserted for early release of 10% DA due from January last and 4th installment of 6th Pay Commission arrears in favour of State Government employees and pensioners.
