ReT aspirants stage protest, demand appointment orders

Srinagar: The empanelled ReT aspirants held a protest demonstration today, demanding immediate issuance of their appointment orders.

The protesters assembled in Press Enclave Srinagar and raised slogans in support of their demand and against the Government, particularly the Commissioner Secretary and Director Education.

The protest was led by one Mudasir Hasan, who castigated the government for halting appointment orders in favour of the aspirants, who were empanelled in 2015-16 as Rehbar-e-Taleem teachers.

“Our protest is against the Government’s dilly dally tactics in issuing our appointment orders,” he told KNT.

One of the protesters Asmat Hassan said that High Court has issued clear cut direction in their favour but the Government was only giving hollow assurances. “We are left with no option other than to hit the streets as there is no other mean to earn our livelihood and most of the candidates have crossed the upper age limit to get any other job,” she added.

The protesters demanded implementation of court order and also sought the intervention of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha for immediate issuance of their appointment orders. (KNT)
