Hundreds of NYCs from Udhampur, Samba, Reasi, Kathua, Poonch, Rajouri, Kishtwar, Doda Ramban and Jammu, assembled in front of the Press Club and raised slogans against the Government for not redressing their genuine demand of regularization.
Addressing the gathering, Asif Ali Bhat, vice president, National Youth Corps (NYC) Association, said that the Government is not paying any heed towards their demands, compelling them to adopt agitational path.
He said 8000 NYCs are engaged with different Government Departments and have rendered 2 years service and now the Government is implementing use and throw policy, which is not bearable at all.
Bhat further stated that the criminal silence of the Government on this issue will surely put the future of the 8000 NYC’s in dark.
He demanded regularization of their services as they have experience of rural development, urban development, social welfare, education, tourism, etc.
He added that if the Government failed to do the needful in this regards, they will come on roads and for any untoward incident the Government will be responsible.
Among others who spoke were Syed Bakar Jafri, State joint secretary, district president Kishtwar Abid Shaikh, district president Ramban Mushtaq Ahmed, district president Doda Zanul Abdien, district vice president Ramban Nageena Shafiq, Salma, Tanveer Ahmed, Anu Verma, etc.
