JKNPP demands CBI probe in backdoor appointments made in BJP-PDP rule
8/27/2019 9:32:27 PM
Early Times Report
Jammu, Aug 27: Reiterating the demand of the Party for high level probe into all appointments made during the four years of BJP-PDP rule, Harsh Dev Singh JKNPP Chairman and Former Minister said that the educated youth of the state was the worst causality of the misrule of the erstwhile regime. He said that though the State Governor had also pointed out irregularities and frauds in appointments as well as allotments of contracts, the much needed action against the delinquents was still elusive.
Referring to media reports appearing on regular basis in the past, Harsh Dev Singh said that corruption had become all pervasive in J&K especially during the erstwhile regime with thousands of backdoor appointments and govt Jobs having been put to open auction with none to take cognizance.
He said that huge scams had been reported after the fall of the BJP-PDP Govt relating to power projects, insurance contracts and paid appointments with even the constitutional and statutory bodies like PSC and SSB also coming under the scanner of the Governor. He however regretted the scuttling of all such probes under pressure of political big wigs despite repeated assurances of the Governor for putting all such corrupt Ministers and bureaucrats behind the bars.
Harsh Dev said that not only the J&K Bank which had made thousands of political appointments in blatant disregard for all cannons of equity and fair play, but the other state govt Deptts had also beaten all records of such nasty back door appointments during the four year rule of PDP-BJP Govt.
He said that corrupt politicians in league with certain reckless officers had blown to smithereens all rules, regulations and procedure on the subject and appointed several thousands of blue eyed candidates in govt services on monetary and other extraneous considerations which needed a CBI probe.
Pointing further towards thousands of backdoor appointments of daily rated workers and contractuals in violation of norms, in various state govts including PHE, I&FC, M&RE, Forests, H&ME, Education, Industries during the four years rule of PDP-BJP, Singh said that never before in the history of state had the laws been as brazenly circumvented and defeated as in the said govt. He said that number of DRWs alone which stood at 61, 000 in 2014 rose to 1,10,000 in 2017 as disclosed in the replies in the legislative Assembly itself.
In the same way, hundreds of appointments of Assistant Professors, JEs and consultants in Education and H&ME Deptt had created massive furore with no takers for the complaints of irregularities against PSC and SSB. Likewise several thousands of SPOs had been appointed in Police Deptt through backdoor without following any criteria and without initiating any selection process in 2017 after the GOI had sanctioned 10,000 posts of such special police officers for the state. He said that in Health Deptt, the Hospital development fund was used for making appointments and paying salaries to illegal appointees which was the worst kind of violation of financial laws of the state.
