Sir,
Due to present uprising in the Valley, which is now going on for the last four months, the Kashmiri migrant employees (PM package and State borne), posted at different isolated places in the Valley were constrained to move to Jammu alongwith their families due to fear psychosis and since then have not been able to resume their duties due to fragile situation of Valley.
Broadly there are two categories of migrant employees that are presently working in Kashmir, one who have voluntarily opted for Valley in the year 2007 and 2009 after migration, when inter-district recruitment was open in the State and were selected by JKSSRB purely on the basis of merit.
The 2nd category of employes are those who were appointed in 2010 under PM’s package for return and rehabilitation of Kashmiri migrants. Major chunk of migrant employees working in Valley are from this category and are living at transit accommodations at Mattan, Vessu, Haal, Sheikhpora and Kupwara.
All these migrant employees (package and non-package) inspite of various hardships viz proper accommodations, security and other basic facilities worked and lived in the Valley with their Muslim brethren keeping in view their moral duty towards their motherland and for reviving the composite culture of Kashmir. All these hapless employees (males/females) since their stay in Jammu are protesting peacefully at Relief Commissioners (M)’s Office, Jammu for last 116 days for redressal of their grievances, but till date no Govt functionary or agency has paid any heed to their legitimate problems and are left totally at the mercy of God. On the contrary, the salaries of these employees have been stopped by the concerned DDO’s bringing them and their families to the brink of starvation.
Keeping in view the above stated facts, the Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti is requested to kindly intervene in the matter personally for mitigating the sufferings of these employees and necessary directions be passed to the concerned authorities for release of salaries of these employees at the earliest.
Yours etc…
