Srinagar, July 5: JKEEGA delegation led by its General Secretary Er Pirzada Hidayatullah called Chief Secretary Dr A K Mehta and raised the core issues confronting the fraternity.
JKEEGA urged CS to honour the SAC decisión of 2019 to regularise the services of all engineers working on Incharge Capacity in 2 months. It said that despite the lapse of 4 years, none of the inservice engineers has been regularised till date
JKEEGA urged for filling all vacancies at all levels starting from MDs to JEs. “CS was informed that 2 no MDs, 4 no CEs, 4 no EDs, 14 SEs, 60 Xens , 132 AEES, 165 AEs, 333 JEs AEE are vacant which is badly telling upon the performance of various power corporations. Despite the increase of assets by 1000s of percent,the staff has been reduced to half instead of creating more staff.”
He was also informed that non recruitment of JEs from the last 6 years is badly telling upon the implementation of Centrally Sponsored schemes and should be addressed at the earliest. “The creation of dedicated enforcement wing for reduction of losses was also taken up strongly. CS assured to look into the issues and address them on priority,” it said.
