Jammu, Oct 20: JKEEGA delegation led by Sachin Tickoo, General Secretary Jammu & Kashmir Electrical Engineering Graduates Association(JKEEGA) called upon Omar Abdullah, Chief Minister J&K here at Jammu. The delegation while greeting the Chief Minister on his assumption of charge and especially holding the charge of important portfolio of Power further assumes significance given the expectations of various stakeholders in the department.
JKEEGA on this occasion took the liberty of putting up a detailed memorandum before the Honble Chief Minister and sought his kind consideration. It said the Current sitting Managing Director(JKPTCL)/ Chief Engineers/Superintending Engineers are all Assistant Engineers and most of the sitting Executive Engineers are Junior Engineers in substantive capacity and are only officiating the higher assignments in –charge capacity with no emoluments of the higher positions. Despite the State Administrative Council decision Dated: 22/10/2019 and constitution of Empowered committee vide Government Order No.308-JK(GAD) of 2020,Dated:02.03.2020 , the regularization issue has not been resolved.
Further The members of the J&K Engineering Gazetted services had been time and again representing for Time Bound career progression scheme(ACP) as available to Doctors/VAS and other technical services including Subordinate judiciary as well. The matter had been considered in the Finance Department and accordingly, the proposal of Time bound promotion scheme for members of the J&K Engineering (Gazetted) Services was approved by then State Cabinet vide Cabinet Decision no- 109/6/2018 Dated-11/05/2018. However the formal notification didn’t see light of the day only in respect of the Engineering services. However for Gazetted Police and JKAS services, notification had been issued , causing grave injustice to the engineers.
It further added that the department has through corporations sent an indent to SSRB for recruiting 300 Junior Engineers into corporations, the same needs to be expedited as there has been no recruitment of Junior Engineers since last six years in Power Development Department . JKEEGA also seeks the filling up of the vacant positions across the hierarchy with the following positions vacant: -MD-1, ED-3, CE-2 ,6, SE-22, XEN-70,AEE-111, JE- 300. JKEEGA strongly sought the Revocation of the Suspension of the Engineers suspended on account of poor billing efficiency and AT&C losses Vide Govt order no’s- 50/51/52/53/54/55/56 of PDD of 2024 Dated-19/03/2024, Govt order no- 57/58/59/60/61 of PDD of 2024 Dated-19/03/2024, who are languishing in suspension for nearly eight months now without hearing.
JKEEGA also expressed serious reservations about the implementation of the Tariff Based Competitive Bidding Mode(TBCB) for Transmission/Sub Transmission infrastructure vide SAC decision 11/01/2024 Dated 18/01/2024 which shall lead to handing over of the Transmission assets to Private players for minimum lease period of 35 years and it shall drain the state exchequer for years to come as Tariff shall be offloaded on end consumer and our assets and source of employment for youth in Govt sector shall also diminish drastically.
Hon’ble Chief Minister Omar Abdullah gave a patient hearing and heard thoroughly all the detailed points of the memorandum and assured speedy resolution of the issues brought to fore by JKEEGA. |
