UDHAMPUR, Nov 2: A deputation of the families of labourers serving in 35 BRTF from Udhampur, under the leadership of senior Congress leader Sumeet Magotra met with Deputy Commissioner Udhampur and sought his intervention.
Magotra disclosed to the Deputy Commissioner that many local people of Udhampur have engaged by 35BRTF for more than one decade on consolidated salary but it is unfortunate that these labourers are not allowed to go back their homes since long despite repeated requests even after performing their duty for the last eight months with the plea of Coronavirus. Their relatives disclosed that their dear ones are forcibly detained and not allowed to leave the workshop Falata of 35 BRTF.
Congress leader requested the Deputy Commissioner that these people have not seen the face of their bread earners for the last eight months and they must be released from illegal detention. The DC has taken this issue very seriously and he immediately made a contact with concerned authorities of 35 BRTF and gave necessary instructions in this regard.
While speaking to the media persons, Congress leader said if Government employees of Medical Department are allowed to go back their residence after performing their duties then why these labourers are detained by the concerned authorities of 35 BRTF. He warned to file a suit against the 35 BRTF in the court of law if the labourers were not allowed to move their homes.
