UDHAMPUR: A large number PDL/TDL/ causal workers engaged in Electrical Department M&RE Div Udhampur held a protest against XEn Udhampur to show strong resentment against the department for submitting biased list of workers for regularisation by way of pick and choose policy and ignoring the genuine workers.
PDL/TDL workers under the leadership of PPEU District President Sat Paul Sharma raised slogans against the department and urged to take their matter seriously and submit fresh list after reviewing the seniority of left over daily workers. Protestors said that number of times they highlighted their issue with XEn but he did not pay due attention towards the issue which forced them to hold protest.
Highlighting the demands Sharma strongly objected to the biased updated senority list circulated by the department instead of regularised PDL/TDL/causal labour on need basis. He alleged that workers engaged with Electric Department since 2001 to 2010 were not inducted in the list which was prepared by XEn Udhampur. They gave 72 hours ultimatum to department to fulfill their genuine demand.
