KATHUA, July 14: Former MoS and Congress leader from Billawar Dr Manohar Lal has expressed deep anguish over the recent decisions of the Social Welfare Minister Bali Bhagat by terminating all helpers and workers working in ICDS without any valid reason.
In a press statement here Dr Sharma said that the poor ICDS helper and workers agitated and protested continuously for more than three months and afterwards approached to the High Court of J&K for justice . The High Court issued stay order in this matter. Later on the order was taken back by SWD minister without any inquiry of any further investigation.
Dr Sharma asked what was the justified reason and measures adapted by Bali Bhagat to judge the previous appointments and now how he comes to the conclusion that the appointments are right without any inquiry or verification. This is pertinent to mention here that the workers and helpers are coming from the weaker sections of society and are less paid employs of the Government. How they arrange the money to run the agitation and meet the expenses of Court, moreover, who will stand responsible for all the miseries of these people?
The confused approach of the BJP and PDP Government in all aspects led to further suffering of people inspite of addressing the problems of weaker sections. The Government seems to make further additions to the problems of weaker sections. This is the similar case as all daily wager/contractual /adhoc and need base workers were terminated first and afterward the termination order was taken back . This also happens in the case of employment policy drafted by the Government which was amended by the government after the protest of peoples. Similar, is the case of B.Ed which differs in the two provinces i.e. in Kashmir there is one year course and in Jammu now it is two year course . This is sheer indiscrimination with the peoples of Jammu for which BJP is responsible.
