Chandigarh/31st,August.
The General Secretary of the All India Congress Committee, former Union Minister, and Sirsa MP Kumari Selja said that from the very beginning, the intentions of the state's BJP government regarding providing employment have been flawed. This is why it never took any meaningful steps to fill the two lakh vacant posts. The slogan-chanting BJP government kept making announcements for recruitments. Now that the model code of conduct is in place in the state, the Haryana Staff Selection Commission is seeking permission from the Election Commission for recruitments, which the Commission has clearly refused. The Commission is now asking for permission, even though it sat idle for nine years and eleven months. It should issue a white paper and inform the public about what it has done in its nearly ten-year tenure. The public will no longer be misled by the BJP and will settle all accounts with their votes in the election. Reacting to the press conference of Haryana Staff Selection Commission’s Himat Singh, Kumari Selja said that despite the model code of conduct being in place in the state, the Commission is talking about recruitment. The government knows well, and even the Commission chairman knows that the Election Commission never allows such actions. The Commission has made it clear that any recruitment will have to be done after the elections. The chairman is saying that they are ready for recruitment, but the Election Commission is not giving permission. By saying this, the chairman and the BJP government are misleading the public. If they really intended to recruit, what were they doing until now, or were they waiting for the model code of conduct to be enforced? She said the BJP is a slogan-chanting government whose only job is to make false promises. Now, the public will not fall for the government's false promises. Kumari Selja said that neither the government nor the Haryana Staff Selection Commission ever had the intention to provide employment to the youth. The youths worked hard for every exam, took the tests, but later found out that the papers had been leaked. The government could not impose any control over those leaking the papers, and Haryana set a new record in paper leaks. The Haryana Staff Selection Commission should issue a white paper to inform the public about what it has been doing for nine years and eleven months. She said that while one lakh twenty thousand youths were recruited under HKRN, if the government intended to recruit, it should have made permanent appointments to the vacant posts. But the BJP government did not do so because it never thought about providing employment to the youth. HKRS employees are being economically exploited by being paid meager wages, and the government has ignored the policy of equal pay for equal work. The youth of the state will give a strong reply to the BJP in this election with their votes.
