Jammu, February 16, 2021: Prof.Bhim Singh, Founder & President-JKNPP has urged upon President of India to protect services of permanent govt employees, daily wagers and professionals from the anti-working class people orders of Lt. Governor in the erstwhile J&K and Ladakh state.
As per orders of J&K govt employees who have attained 48 years of age or more and completed 22 years services or more as on ending December, 2021 shall be retired/terminated from active service without any rhyme or reason.
Speaking in the Party Secretariat meeting of senior leaders here today, Prof. Bhim Singh expressed serious concern over anti-employees designs of the present UT govt of J&K and Ladakh.

He asked the UT administration to stop misconceived machinations to further burden J&K people by imposing property taxes on households in the name of development and smart cities.
