| BJP leader criticizes JK bureaucracy | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, July 18: While the JKUT LG Manoj Sinha's assurances in regard to the displaced Kashmiri Pandit community are gratifying to be noted, the actions on ground by the administration and bureaucracy, excepting by a section of good officers, are absolutely depressing. This was stated by Ashwani Kumar Chrungoo, senior BJP and KP leader and Incharge, Deptt of political affairs and Feedback, J&K-BJP.
On the one hand, there are instructions to make sure that the dream of thousands of youth of Kashmiri Pandit displaced community turns into reality and all benefits to be extended on priority to them, on the other hand there are attempts by a section of the administration to create a wedge between the government and the displaced community. This is done in order to damage the image of the Modi-led government at the centre by the very people responsible in the administration to run the affairs of the government.
Chrungoo was addressing a meeting of the recently selected candidates under the PM's Employment package at Jammu and simultaneously online. He said, "after every interval, one or the other administrative order is issued to injure the interests of the displaced community to such an extent that the targeted sections are forced to come out to protest against such 'frivolous and arbitrary orders'.
Delays and denials in delivering public services, development works, normal day to day routine matters in regard to the Kashmiri Pandit community are a usual affair, unfortunately.
The candidates while raising their issue said that the recent order of GAD 586JK (GAD) of 2021 dated 07/07/2021 making S.O. 194 applicable to all those recruits who joined/are going to join on or after 17/06/2020 is completely "arbitrary, full of contradictions and irrational and needs to be withdrawn and cancelled immediately". The selected candidates under the PM package are explicitly a specific class of recruits under the scheme of the government, applicability of S.O. 194 is the antithesis of the Recruitment scheme.
The BJP leader acknowledged that the order doesn't provide any rationale for issuing such an order which generally all types of orders and circulars give. It alters the position of the last 10 years in respect of the PM package recruits by introducing a cut in their salaries while asking the employees to give a number of undertakings at the time of recruitment which differentiates them from the general recruits in Jammu and Kashmir.
"The order creates a 'class within a class' with a motive and design to discourage the recruits from joining their services in the Kashmir valley. It also puts a heavy burden on the shoulders of the new recruits who opt to go to the Kashmir valley under the package without any government accommodation and the normal benefits available to the general recruits in J&K", he added.
The issue of promotions to the JEs is also pending and they have been victimised for no fault of theirs. It has made them second class citizens since they were denied their due. Such orders should be revoked and cancelled with immediate effect which otherwise are tantamount to "bias, apartheid and gross discrimination against them", further said the KP leader.
Among others who attended the meeting included Vivek Saproo, Raghuraj, Pulkit, Ayush Pandita, Puneet Chrungoo and Mithilesh Gurtoo. |
