Srinagar, Jan 30: The Jammu and Kashmir Electrical Engineering Graduates Association in an Emergency
Executive Council meeting headed by its General Secretary Er Pirzada Hidayatullah expressed unhapppiness for the “delay in promotions of Junior Engineers,” the proposal for which was moved in the month of May 2022.
“It is pertinent to mention here that despite a lapse of more than eight months the promotion file has been moving to and fro without any headway thus demoralizing the largest cadre at the bottom of pyramid in PDD”, the association said in a statement.
“Further due to immense stagnation the engineers of PDD have been left with no option but to protest, the responsibility
of which shall lie on administration. Further it is reiterated that Government on one side set targets for works which are time bound and take action if delays occur but on other side when it comes to delay in processing promotions at secretariat level, no action whatsoever is taken thus showing the Double yard stick”, the statement added.
“Since all peaceful means of approaching offices viz-a-viz PDD, GAD and office of worthy Chief Secretary J&K many times in last six months have been exhausted, JKEEGA appeals Hon’ble LG Shri Manoj Sinha Ji and Chief Secretary Mr A K Mehta for intervention in the matter of promotion of Junior Engineers of PDD and fix responsibility of all responsible for denying basic right of promotion in respect of Junior Engineers of erstwhile
PDD who have been appointed in 2009”, the association said.
