JKNPP holds protests in favour of trained pharmacists, Medical Assistants

Early times Report

Jammu, Sept 22: Activists of J&K National Panthers Party today staged a protest demonstration in favour of trained pharmacists and medical assistants.
Lambasting the government for denying recognition to Pharmacists/Medical Assistants who had completed their courses prior to State’s Reorganization, the activists of JKNPP along with the affected candidates led by Harsh Dev, Chairman-JKNPP & former Minister held a massive protest in Jammu today.
Speaking on the occasion, Harsh Dev Singh said that delay and denying issuance of registration and licenses to all such candidates on the pretext of repeal of earlier laws was absurd and ridiculous. It was highly unjustified and rather atrocious to deny recognition of courses conducted under the existing laws of the then State prior to August 5, 2019.
He said that around 25,000 candidates had passed various para-medical courses prior to abrogation of Article 370 under J&K Pharmacy Act from recognized institutes in the then State who are being denied registration/licenses by the J&K government on the plea of repeal of the said Act post Re-organization of the State. Seeking personal indulgence of Union Health Minister and Medical Council of India for recognizing the said courses in view of the same having been completed under the existing laws of J&K State, the NPP activists and affected youth led by Harsh Dev Singh held a massive protest demonstration at Jammu and torched the effigy of the central government.
Urging upon the central government to address the most genuine issues of these trained Pharmacists, Singh said that non recognition of the said courses would render the diplomas of all such candidates invalid despite they having passed the relevant courses as per the J&K laws. He said that while the future courses could be conducted under the Central Pharmacy Act, the already trained youth under the State laws need to be given approval/relaxation for validation of their degrees.
“And despite huge fee having been charged by government run as well as recognized private institutes, the concerned authorities of Health Department were refusing issuance of registration/licenses on the plea that central Pharmacy Act had become operative in J&K.
