He said “as we hoped that the representatives we have elected to run the government will resolve our long pending process of regularization. We are not understating why the list has been delayed as we know that the first list was published after the delay of 11 months’’. “This means that we have to come on roads once again for the regularization lists of 2nd and 3rd phase.This is the clear failure of the State Government as the policy is crystal clear that the candidates will be regularized after completion of seven years of satisfactory services in three phase i.e. 1st.Phase on April 2014, 2nd.Phase in April 2015, and 3rd.Phase in April 2016, then why the government has adopted delaying tactics’’, he added .
