JAMMU, Oct 16: Kashmiri Migrant Unemployed Youth who are on protest at Press Club here for last 15 days demanding issuing of orders to 45 selected youth under PM package who were left out by the Government for the reasons best known to the authorities at the helm of affairs.
Continuing their protest, these candidates said that they will continue the agitation till their demand is settled. They said that they were selected under due course of law by the recruiting agencies but the formal appointment orders have not been issued till date which has generated a lot of resentment among them as well as their dependents in their families.
These protestors raising slogans in support of their demands said that they are at the verge of overage and in case the selection orders are not issued in their favour their career will be put in jeopardy.
The protestors said that some of the candidates are already under the depression and the Government has now invited fresh applications even against the selected posts which is totally an injustice with these candidates.
They said despite giving representations to all the concerned in the Government including advisors to Lt. Governor but to no avail. These candidates said that they are ready to serve in Kashmir being the aborigines of the Valley.
