Demolition Drive Selective In Its Action: NC

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: National Conference on Wednesday said that the J&K administration is working on a mission to dislocate and disempower the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
Addressing a workers meet here at the party headquarters Nawa-e-Subha, Srinagar Women’s wing State President Shameema Firdous and District President Srinagar Peer Afaq Ahmed said that the underway demolition drive clearly reek of political vendetta and the misuse of government machinery.
“Government isn’t even bothering to send a notice to the family concerned before going ahead with the demolition. The victims of this demolition drive have been in possession of these chunks of land for several decades before the dawn of independence. How have they suddenly become illegal occupants? Most of these lands were lawfully granted by the then autocratic rulers to people. Laws cannot be modified overnight to the disadvantage of people. State land is not a phenomenon restricted to Jammu and Kashmir and such encroachment in national and commercial areas were regularised and converted into freehold rights. The underway reckless demolition drive has affected the constitution and infringed possessory rights of the people,” they said.
They added that the Supreme Court in its recent order regarding the anti-encroachment drive by the government had clearly barred the executing agencies from demolishing residential houses. “Even that order has also not been implemented. The bulldozer policy is only aimed against a particular community, tribals and poor. They have left little to the imagination of people. Every day a new front is opened against them.”
“BJP-controlled administration is planning an escape route for itself and its B team members involved in land mafia business by uprooting poor and landless people. The drive has fanned new tensions in the region which is already beset with alienation. Why are BJP’s B teams mute on this issue? They are equally responsible for what is going on?” the leaders added.

1446 Paramedic Positions: High Court Asks SSB to Make Regular Selections

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Dismissing petitions filed by paramedics serving the Health Department on an academic arrangement basis, a division bench of the high court has asked the Services Selection Board (SSB) to go ahead with the selection process of the 1446 positions on a regular basis.
High Court of Jammu and Kashmir
In order to manage the staff-deficient department, the government engaged paramedics on an academic arrangement basis for one year. The “service” was extendable up to a maximum of four years on a year-on-year basis.
Later on September 19, 2013, it was made extendable up to six years. The extension was based on “good performance and conduct” or till selection or promotion was made according to the recruitment rules, whichever was earlier.
In 2021, the government recruiter, JK Services Selection Board an advertisement notification for filling up the 1446 posts of paramedical staff on regular basis. This led the candidates serving the department for many years to approach the court.
After many hearings, a number of petitions were clubbed together and the case was decided by a division bench comprising Justices Sanjeev Kumar and M A Chowdhary. The decision admitted that the positions they are holding have been made by a committee, a statutory selection body, so they are not backdoor appointees.
“Though, there is nothing on record to demonstrate that selection of the writ petitioners was pursuant to a selection process but from a reading of the 2009 Rules, in particular Rule-6, we find that there was a proper committee constituted for making selection and, therefore, we presume that appointment of the writ petitioners is not a backdoor appointment,” the judgement delivered by the division bench reads. “However, the fact remains that if such appointments, which are made purely as a temporary measure, are regularized and the persons selected are substantively appointed against the posts held by them, it would definitely violate Article 14 and 16 of the Constitution.”

Taking to social networking site Twitter, Azad said he met Amit Shah on Wednesday regarding the land eviction issues in Jammu and Kashmir.
“Met union Home minister Amit Shah Ji regarding land eviction issues in J&K. Apprised him about the prevailing unrest & uncertainty among the common people who are forced to vacate the properties which are otherwise recognized by successive regimes. Amit Shah Ji assured me no small landholders who constructed houses will be touched!” said Azad, in a series of tweets.
