EARLY TIMES REPORT
VIJAYPUR, Sept 28: Alleging brazen disregard for the concerns of unemployed and underemployed youth by the present regime, Harsh Dev Singh Chairman JKNPP and former Minister reiterated the resolve of Panthers Party to take the fight for Jammu to each and every nook and corner of J&K.
He said that the educated unemployed youth was neglected not only during BJP-PDP regime but the Centre too seems to have abdicated its responsibility towards the younger generation by failing to fulfill its repeated promises and slogans. Never before had the youth felt so humiliated and betrayed as during the BJP led government which seemed to be completely averse to their woes and sufferings.
He was addressing a youth gathering at Vijaypur where more than 60 youth joined NPP during the “Rozgar Ka Vaada Poora Karo Abhiyan" launched by the party. He was accompanied by Yashpaul Kundal State President Youg Panthers and Mr. Surinder Chauhan District President Jammu (Rural).Highlighting the pathetic plight of the educated youth of J&K, Singh said that BJP led govt. had announced to create 50,000 posts immediately after Reorganization of J&K with absorption of the educated youth against the said posts on fast track basis.
Ruing that large scale terminations and retrenchments both in govt and private sectors were witnessed in Saffron regime, he divulged while the employees of Health Department appointed under SRO-24, the education employees appointed under SMAGRA, the high qualified contractual lecturers and teachers and Information Department employees were terminated in the most arbitrary manner, the recent order disbanding the Self Help Groups (SHGs) of Engineers had further rendered around 15000 professionals jobless.
Raising the issue of border youth in particular, Singh said that while the residents of areas adjoining International Border are entitled to reservation in government jobs as per the revised rules, the eligible youth continue to be harassed by the concerned officials in issuance of such certificates of Residents of International Border (RIB).
Referring to the plight of farmers, he said that the peasant fraternity of Jammu region remained most marginalized sect under BJP rule. He said that the farmers were not paid even a single penny as compensation towards their perished crops due to rains and deluge despite their shrill cries. In view of the recent Agri bills passed in the Parliament without holding any debate had further aggravated the unrest among the farmers, Harsh maintained.
