JAMMU, Jan 28: Accusing the ruling alliance of fudging the records of casual, need based and daily rated workers while processing the same for regularization, NPP leader Harsh Dev Singh has alleged large scale manipulations in the finalization of the lists.
In a press statement here Harsh Dev said that in blatant circumvention of the procedures and prescribed guidelines, the officers of PHE, PDD and Forest Department had prepared the lists as per their whims and fancies so as to suit their vested interests. He said that while hundreds of bonafide casual workers and other DRWs had been ignored, the names of several ineligible workers had been incorporated in the lists so as to wrongfully confer upon them the benefits of regularization.
Claiming to be in possession of sufficient evidence to prove his point, Singh said that hundreds of fake names had been incorporated in the lists submitted by M&RE wing of PDD and PHE Departments in particular to the concerned authorities for regularization. He regretted that while blue eyed candidates had found their entry through back door in the said lists, there were no takers for the grievances of the genuine candidates whose representations had been thrown into the dustbin.
He pointed out that the number of DRWs, casual etc in various Government Departments on the roll of the Government had increased from sixty thousand in 2014 to over one lakh in 2017 was sufficient in itself to establish that the illegal entries had been made in the records for conferring undue benefits upon the chosen only.
