Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Aug 4: The monthly meeting of All J&K Plus-2 Lecturers’ Forum here today under the chairmanship of its president, Deepak Sharma discussed issues of plus-2 cadre.
Speakers in the meeting demanded Assured Career Progression (ACP) in favour of plus two cadre and alleged step motherly treatment with them by previous Governments.
Referring to Chief Secretary’s direction for time bound report submission to all administrative committees, Forum demanded fixing of responsibility for the delay and urged the Governor to intervene to grant ACP to remove stagnation as they have ‘suffered a lot for want of time bound promotion’.
Forum flayed the Government for ‘failing’ to complete regularisation process of all in-charge officers of Education Department despite SAC decision and demanded vigorously following up sub-judice cases to facilitate the regularisation process and release of list of senior lecturers as per 1/3rd cadre strength.
Forum also demanded either fixation of induction quota in favour of Plus-2 Lecturers or repatriation of Joint Directors from KAS cadre working in Education Department to their parent departments.
Prominent among those present in the meeting were N.S Jamwal, Anil Sharma, R.S Slathia and others.
