Govt.’s approach vis-à-vis regularisation of daily wagers is ironic: Kadfeen


Srinagar: Congress leader Kadfeen Choudhary on Friday demanded that government must regularise the services of 60 thousand daily wagers and casual workers in Jammu and Kashmir without any further delay.
In a statement issued to KNS, Kadfeen said that the daily wagers have rendered services for years in different departments on meager wages and at present undermining their services and sacrifices will be akin to plunging their lives into chaos. He added that the government at present seems to have adopted a completely different approach vis-à-vis addressing their plight.
Kadfeen said that the recent advisement by the government over filing up of 10 thousand posts in various departments of Jammu and Kashmir has raised many eyebrows and asking daily wagers to apply for these posts was ironic to the core. “What will happen to the years and decades of services these daily wagers have already tirelessly rendered. Who will pay for those services in which they have been given peanuts in the name of wages? The government is ought to be considerate over such an important issue on humanitarian grounds,” said Kadfeen.
He asked the government to implement the policy it has already approved for the regularisation of the daily wagers and those at the helm instead of exposing these workers to further hardships should walk the talk and honor the commitments of the past. (KNS)
