Never ending wait continues
10/6/2020 11:30:37 PM

Job aspirants, who had applied for various posts in Jammu and Kashmir State Road Transport Corporation in 2014, are still waiting for the final selection list.
The corporation sitting over the list has left these aspirants in lurch as their long wait is continuing. The corporation’s lackadaisical attitude can be gauged from the fact that the helmsmen seem least interested in expediting the process. During the past six years five Managing Directors of the corporation have changed.
According to the media reports more than 8000 candidates had applied for the posts of drivers, conductors, guards, helpers and junior assistants six years ago. In 2016 the corporation again announced the posts and at that point of time nearly 13000 aspirants again submitted the application forms. But the never ending wait of the aspirants is continuing.
After the transition of the erstwhile State into a Union Territory people were hoping that the recruitment process will get expedited and things will start moving at a fast pace. But the aspirants, who had applied for jobs in the Road Transport Corporation are still waiting for the officials to act.
If one peeps into the track record of the SRTC, it becomes clear that the corporation since its inception has been facing losses and has not been a profit making institution. The employees of the corporation during the past years have hit the streets on many occasions and have staged massive protests due to their wages not being paid on time. The SRTC has always remained in news for wrong reasons. This time also the corporation has been caught on the wrong foot.
Like SRTC many departments, corporations and public sector undertakings have conducted tests and interviews of the candidates but have not issued the final selection list for years together.
The Jammu and Kashmir administration should take a serious note of selection processes getting delayed and departments taking years to complete the recruitment process which could be done in few months.
In the erstwhile J&K State it was a routine but this has to change in the newly carved out Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
The officials can’t be allowed to do what they have done in the past. The rules of the game have to be modified and the ones heading the important departments and corporations need to be made accountable.
They can’t be allowed to play with the careers of young people, who remain in dilemma for years together for none of their faults.
