| Work in govt hospitals, offices remains affected Employees Strike | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
Jammu, Mar 11: Work in government offices, including educational institutions and hospitals, remained affected across the Kashmir valley due to the ongoing five-day strike of employees for the fourth consecutive day today. However, the government is yet to take any decision to end the strike.
The employees began their five-day strike from Tuesday in support of their demands for releasing the arrears of the Sixth Pay Commission recommendations and other demands, including revision in retirement age from 58 to 60 years and regularisation of daily wage and contractual employees. It affected work in schools and classwork in other educational institutions, creating resentment among students and their parents.
Normal work in government hospitals was also affected due to the strike, hampering OPD services, while emergency services functioned normally. Patients coming to hospitals here, including the SMHS, Lalla Ded Maternity Hospital and others, faced problems due to lack of staff in these hospitals. The earlier demand of the state government employees for the implementation of the Sixth Pay Commission recommendations were fulfilled last year, while the employees had been demanding the release of arrears thereof.
