Mandi: Former Chief Minister and Leader of Opposition Jairam Thakur said that the real face of the Congress government, which came to power on the basis of false guarantees, has now come to the fore.
This government, which did vote bank politics in the name of restoring the old pension, is now going to strangle the employees by creating such a mess, which has affected lakhs of employees. Despite our opposition, the Congress government has passed the Recruitment and Service Conditions Bill 2024 related to government employees in the Assembly in the name of vote, due to which the seniority and increment of contract employees will be affected, the financial benefits of those employees whose regular government service was less will be reduced.
He said that contract employees also come after passing the interview of Public Service Commission and State Selection Commission. Under the government policy, they are regularized after two years. This period of these employees should be considered for seniority and other benefits, the employees have taken advantage of this by going to the court, but today by bringing this amendment the government is snatching their benefits, this is a completely anti-employee amendment. This has exposed the anti-employee face of this government.
Jairam Thakur said that whether it is retrospective or prospective, there was no need to bring amendment at any level. You have brought the amendment bill after the decision of the court, which is not right. You are in majority, so you passed this amendment but those employees will go to the court again. The money that the government is talking about saving, more money will be given to the lawyers than that.
Jairam Thakur said that sometimes the Chief Minister says that we have given 31 thousand government jobs and replied in the assembly that their process is going on, the truth is that most of these recruitments started during our time and the results are being taken out now. The former Chief Minister has claimed that this government has not recruited a single doctor in its tenure of two years, while daily giving the pretext of change in health services. He said that it is a matter of concern that how can a government which could not recruit even one doctor, be able to strengthen the health services.
