To check number of illegal recruitments in Municipal councils and committees of Kashmir division since 2005 to 2011, state government in vide order number 110-HUD of 20-04-2011constituted a two member committee to probe the matter and submit report with recommendations within 20 days. Accordingly to former Director, Muhammad Afzal Bhat and the then additional secretary Saugat Biswas then additional secretary to government, Housing and ULB ordered a probe into a racket of illegal recruitments in 42 Municipal councils and Committees of Kashmir division.

According to documents, the number of illegal appointments were made by Municipal commissioners and executive officers of Municipal committees in between year 2005 to 2011.

However. no action was taken against any concerned municipal commissioner or executive officer.
Official sources informed Early Times that number of illegal recruitments never stops in Municipal Councils and committees as there is no authorized government recruitment policy with ULB.
They said that as per a tradition timely placed top brass officials in Municipal councils and committees appoint sons and daughters of employees who are either retired as employees of such councils and committees, or, are in service.
Official sources said that people are recruited without any set procedures like advertisement of posts in print or electronic media for awareness among common masses.
Sources said that in most of cases concerned officials illegally appoint people initially as need base or casual laborers in exchange of hefty amounts of money and then without even completing mandatory seven years of service as permanent daily rated workers frame their permanent orders by fake documents. Sources said that after 2011, illegal recruitments increased in Municipal Councils and Committees. Meanwhile despite repeated attempts no contact could be made with Director ULB.
