National Democratic Party Indian (NDPI) president Rajesh Gupta has demanded release of salaries to all employees including adhoc, daily wagers and all other temporary employees of Jammu and Kashmir UT.
In a statement, he said that a large number of adhoc, daily wagers and temporary/need base employees are without salaries thus it would be great injustice if their pending salaries which is a meagre amount is not paid. He urged administration to release their pay.
NDPI Chief expressed hope that J&K government will accede to this genuine and justified demand. Gupta said, “Every month they are made to beg for the release of their own salaries, wages. They are subjected to mental torture as their whole family suffers due to the delay in release of their salary, wages,” he said and added that these people do a lot of hard work without any returns.
NDPI leader urged upon the Lt Governor to release the payment of contractors, teachers and wages of these labourers. He urged upon the administrations to ensure that the people do not face any inconvenience on account of security, traffic management, other basic amenities.
He said that all the concerned departments should work in close coordination and proper measures should be put in place to ensure availability of essentials on reasonable rates in all the areas.
Rajesh Gupta appealed Lt Governor Manoj Sinha to regularize the services of all daily wagers and casual labourers working in different departments in J&K.
