Create District wise posts of teachers and fill up all vacant posts of Lecturers in Colleges and Hr.Sec.Schools of rural areas of J&K, UT.
The members of Thathri Development Front, District Doda, S/Sh. R.R.Manhas, K.K.Rao, Om Raj Bhall, Advocate Kanwarjeet Singh Thakur, Layaqat Ali, Behari Lal Bhagat, .Javeed Iqbal Batt & Yog Raj Sharma in a press statement issued here, have welcomed the decision taken by Lt. Governor, Sh. G.C. Murmu that no fresh appointments under SRO 202 & probation period of old appointees reduced from 5 to 2 years. They described the revocation of SRO 202 as a victory of those appointed under the provision in J&K and those aspiring for employment in the government sector. They described the step as a big boon for the candidates who have, or are in the process of applying for various vacancies being notified by the recruitment agencies. The members have appealed to the Lt. Governor of J&K UT, Sh. Girish Chandra Murmu that time has now come if District wise new posts of teachers/ lecturers are created in Jammu & Kashmir for justice to the ignored poor highly educated & trained unemployed youths of all the Districts of J&K, so that whole lot of highly educated trained and frustrated lot, is adjusted and a sense of confidence building is created in their minds purely on merit basis without caste, creed and colour & this will certainly signal out that abrogation of Article 370 should have been done much earlier.
The members also expressed serious concern over the deteriorating plight of Govt. Degree colleges and Hr. Sec. Schools in rural areas of Jammu & Kashmir Union Territory due to non-availability of teaching staff. Highly educated and qualified unemployed youth of J&K had pinned hopes that they may be absorbed as there exist large number of vacant positions in respect of teaching staff in various Govt.Degree Colleges and Govt. Hr. Sec. Schools when former Governor of erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir state had announced ten months back that 50,000 jobs will be created in J&K, which did not happen till date. And simultaneously consequent upon such announcement of 50,000 jobs, the public at large had heaved a sigh of relief that at least some vacant positions in Govt. Degree Colleges and Govt. Hr. Sec. Schools will be filled up and the sufferings of the student community will be addressed to some extent but no such steps were taken by the government and likewise ten months passed. The vacancies of teaching staff vary in different streams and reportedly in some streams the situation is worst due to non-availability of staff since long times. For example in 52 or so newly created Degree Colleges of Arts stream across erstwhile state of J&K, the situation is worst due to non-availability of teaching staff and same is the plight of Govt. Hr. Sec. Schools, as well. Unfortunate part of the story is that often selfish and opportunist politicians to fetch votes make announcements for opening of new Govt. Degree College(s) / Hr.Sec. Schools but when their purpose of fetching votes is fulfilled, they even forget as to which area they had made the announcement of opening of a new Govt. Degree College or a Hr.Sec.School and therefore question of creating posts of college lecturers, does not arise. The members of Thathri Development Front is not averse to the recently issued orders of the JK-UT administration regarding filling up of 10,000 posts, of which according to the order, most of these posts pertain to class IV vacancies and Panchayats Assistants etc, but there is no mention of filling up of vacant posts in Govt. Degree colleges and Govt. Hr. Sec. Schools, which is troublesome. The academic session at one hand is already over, though there was delay due to present Corona pandemic turmoil across the world including India and the worrisome plight of vacant positions remains as such and on the other hand there is no word heard on behalf of UT administration in this behalf and therefore, a situation of resentment has flared up among the poor public in the rural areas of J&K UT.
The members of Thathri Development Front, District, Doda have appealed before the Lt. Governor Shri Grish Chander Murmu to take cognizance of the deteriorating plight of student community across Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir due to non-availability of teaching staff and to take immediate necessary steps so that filling up of vacant posts in Govt. Degree colleges and Govt. Hr. Sec. Schools is taken up on fast tract basis, and future of students is saved to some extent.
