| CSC Association discusses demands | | |  Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 3: J&K CSC Association today held a meeting and discusses demand from government for failing to provide support to khidmat centres. According to press release, CSC association demanded stipend of Rs 7500 which was promised by the government and demanded exemption of interest on loan which was given to unemployed youth to open Khidmat centres.
Speaking on the occasion, Pushvinder Singh, one of the VLEs said that CSC's (Common Service Centre/Khidmat Centres) under National E-Governance Project were rolled out in the state of J&K in 2009. He said that almost one thousand highly qualified youth across JK were taken into this project through deceiving advertisements promising revenue generating G2C and B2C services. Loans were raised by J&K Bank (SCA) for site (Centre) development including infrastructure upto the tune of Rs 2.00 Lakh Approx but till date no major revenue generating service has been provided by Govt of J&K to these centres. Even after making hundreds of representations and deliberations, Govt has failed to make these centres viable thus forcing Khidmat Centre (CSC) operators to suffer along with their families.
Even orders from J&K Chief Minister, where he ordered revenue support worth Rs. 7500/- per month wide Govt. order no. 46 ITD of 2011 dated 14-12-2011 vaporized without implementation at the ground level. Every exercise from Govt's end turned futile. Minutes were circulated from time to time but the execution and implementation part remained a total failure.
Many khidmat centre executives participated in the meetin and decided to start state level protest/ Hunger strike at Jammu against the administration for failing to implement NeGP properly. They further said that unless and until genuine demands are not heeded our protest/ junger strike will continue against the authorities for resolution of issues.
