“Children of those central government officials, all India services officers, officials of PSUs and autonomous body of central government, public sector banks, officials of statutory bodies, officials of central universities and recognised research institutes of central government who have served in Jammu and Kashmir for a total period of ten years or children on parents who fulfil any of the conditions in sections” reads the notification.
“Persons registered as a migrant by the Relief and Rehabilitation Commissioner (Migrants) in the UT of J&K, will also be included in the definition. Children of such residents of J&K as reside outside UT of J&K in connection with their employment or business or other professional or vocational reasons” reads a notification.
“29 state laws have been repealed while 109 have been amended. Section 5A states that no person shall be eligible for appointment to a post carying a pay scale for not more than level 4 unless he is a domicile of UT of J&K,” reads the notification. Moreover, the Centre has repealed the J&K civil services (special provisions) Act.
