| CITU for amendment in J&K Accountability Act | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
Jammu, Sep 6 : The Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU) today demanded amendment of the Jammu and Kashmir Accountability Commission Act and Rules to give more teeth to the anti-graft State Accountability Commission (SAC) to curb the menace of corruption in the state.
The state committee of the Jammu and Kashmir CITU, which met under the chairmanship of Kulgam MLA M Y Tarigami, passed four resolutions at its meeting here, which included amendment of the Accountability Commission Act, construction of hydel power projects on the Chenab river and protection of trade union rights and labour laws in the state.
In a statement issued here, the first resolution, demanded amendment of the Act and Rules governing the State Accountability Commission (SAC) to make it more effective in weeding out rampant corruption in public office.
‘’The resolutions also demanded protection of the rights of trade union workers engaged in various construction projects in the state to pursue their genuine and just demands besides strict adherence and implementation of labour laws in the state in the interest of a congenial working atmosphere at work places,’’ the statement said.
The CITU members, however, further demanded that the hydel power projects identified for construction on the Chenab river, including Kiru, Pakul Dool, Rattle and Swalakote should be taken up for execution at the earliest and local unemployed youth must be engaged in the construction of these power projects.
‘’Payment of a regular honorarium to workers of the non-profit Association for Social and Health Advancement (ASHA) and Mid-Day Meal workers was among other demands of the CITU members,’’ the statement added.
