Senior Congress leaders have said that domicile law facilitates outside candidates to be eligible for govt jobs in Jammu and Kashmir and it is against the repeated commitment by the ruling party at the Centre and the govt with the youth of Jammu and Kashmir.
Taking strong exception to the betrayal with the people especially the youth of J and K who were assured time and again by the ruling BJP and the government about complete protection to the jobs and land in the situation the post abrogation of art 370, asking them not to be misled, but they now feel cheated.
The domicile law facilitates the outside candidates to qualify and be eligible to govt jobs of all classes and all categories in Jammu and Kashmir , under different conditions ranging from seven years study in J and K including 10th/12th class exam or their parents having served for ten years in any central govt organization or all India services etc or 15yrs stay in J and K. This amounts to facilitating large number of outside candidates to the govt jobs here, at their cost against the promises and assurances to the youth.
They said that Ruling party leaders and few others are still misleading the youth that their rights have been fully protected and rejoice on the situation, claiming credit for something,which is a deception and backtracking of the commitment. These people should come out clear and apologize the youth of J and K for having extended fake assurances and creating false hopes amongst them.
Our youth are capable intelligent and hard-working enough to complete at any level but they are undergoing a very difficult environment and academic atmosphere for the past several decades, which are compounded manifold for the past some time for reasons known to everyone here and elsewhere in the country. In such situations, if special protection is sought by the youth in the wake of commitments with them, there is nothing wrong in it and we fully support their demand.
The senior Congress leaders include Former Ministers and party vice presidents Shri Mula Ram, G M Saroori Raman Bhalla, Haji Abdul Rashid, Ghulam Nabi Monga, Mohd Anwar Bhatt, Amreen Bader, Kanta Bhan besides General Secretaries Balwan Singh, Yogesh Sawhney, Abdul Majid wani Faqir Chand , Manmohan Singh, Shah Mohammed Chaudhary, , Shah Nawaz Chaudhary, Mahila Congress President Indu Pawar, PYC President Udey Chib, Seva Dal President Rajesh Sadhotra and INTUC chief Shiv Kumar.
