Regularisation of daily wagers under scanner? | | | Early Times Report Jammu, Mar 10: As the government has been stating that the regularisation of more than 60 thousand daily wagers in the state is in the offing, the mess created by the various departments is acting as a major spoilsport and delaying the entire process. Government sources privy to the development told Early Times that as it was already assured to the daily wagers that the regularisation process will commence soon after the Budget session, it is provoking as a 'herculean task' to clear the mess in the initial stage. Sources divulge that several departments in Jammu and Kashmir have wrongly inducted names of people into the list of the adhoc employees in a bid to pave their entry via the back door. Such an action has led to the chaos in ground with finance department busy fixing errors ahead of going ahead with the formulation of a roadmap to regularise the daily wagers in the state. Reports inform that in August last year, the finance minister Haseeb Drabu had taken a serious note of the misuse of the official position by some senior officials and had asked for a high level inquiry into the matter. Reports inform that as this year the government announced the Adhaar based attendance of the daily rated employees in order to access their exact number that could pave way for their regularisation of the services, some departments of the state government had allegedly tempered with the process and had adjusted the names of their own men or those who have allegedly greased their palms, in the list of the daily rated employees. The corruption of such a ruthless level has resulted in total chaos as the numbers have begun to alter drastically. Earlier, the number of the daily rated workers engaged mainly in PHE, Irrigation, Flood Control and R&B was estimated to be 60 thousand. After the alleged tempering of the records done by some senior officials of these departments, the number of the daily rated workers has spiked to 96 thousand. Witnessing such a high end corruption, the government to had put the regularisation of the daily rated employees on hold due to which the deserving ones were left in lurch at large. "This time again, the mess has to be cleared first. The finance department has taken serious and very positive measures about it and it will ensure that no undeserving person gets into the list," sources divulged. It was informed further that the finance minister had earlier called an emergency meeting in the civil secretariat wherein the officials were slammed over creating chaos in the entire process. Quoting the finance minister, sources privy to the development divulged that it looks like that the palms of the officials were greased that had led to addition of 30 thousand blue eyed persons in the list of the daily rated employees. "This has been reported a year ago and the finance department is rigorously making all efforts to get the odd men out of the list and scrutinize it thoroughly one again before the final road map is implemented on ground with a hope that same could help the aggrieved adhoc employees who have been working hard to earn livelihood and have been striving for their regularization," says an official privy to the development. |
