The Alliance members including the heads of socio-religious organizations, retired employees, youth and women while addressing a press conference here today sought the restoration of reservation in promotion for the employees of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes and other categories. They threatened of mass agitation if the reservation in promotion is not restored within next 15 days. The Alliance leaders said the state government's luke warm response in defending their position on the issue of reservation in promotions in scores of writ petitions' in the high court of J&K is highly condemnable. They also said that more frustrating for reserved categories were when the state bureaucracy acting as dictators deliberately ignored stay order of Supreme Court in Naseeb Singh Vs State & others. Bodh Raj Bhagat, senior vice president All India Bhagat Mahasabha while speaking on the occasion warned that people may take drastic steps if callous attitude of the government continued in the matter. He appealed for large scale social unity amongst SC, ST and OBCs for a bigger fight. He warned the micro minority of this country that comprises of only less than 10% to desist from issuing irrelevant statements and added that before issuing such irrelevant statements they must assess their power and should not provoke majority community of this country. It was unanimously decided that if government fails to address the genuine issue of reservation in promotions and if the vacant posts of Lecturers in 10+2 are not filled up from amongst those who appeared in the interview recently, a massive agitation would be launched across the state. |
