STATE TIMES NEWS
JAMMU: An emergent meeting of All J&K Plus Two Lecturers’ Forum was held through teleconferencing under leadership of its President Deepak Sharma on Thursday, wherein the forum demanded placement of lecturers as Senior Lecturers in School Education Department immediately as per 1/3rd quota strength pending since December 2013.
In a press note issued here, Deepak Sharma said that 10+2 cadre has suffered a lot in absence of running Grade/Time Bound Promotion, as they have to wait for about 20 long years for next promotion as Principal with a meager enhancement of Rs 200 in grade pay (pre-revised). “The only consolation in between is their placement as Senior lecturer with two advance increments as per SRO-481 but it is quite unfortunate that no list of senior lecturers has been released since December 2013, causing a considerable financial loss to those due for same,” he added.
The forum demanded immediate release of list of senior lecturers thereby considering inclusion of all those dropped due to one or another reason from the seniority list.
Forum further hoped that practical shape would soon be given to Running Grade/ Time Bound Promotion and induction quota into KAS in favour of lecturers as promised by Principal Secretary Dr Asgar Hassan Samoon and regularisation orders of all Incharge incumbents/ retirees will also be issued at the earliest.
Those who participated in teleconferencing included N S Jamwal, R S Slathia, Dr Sushma, Anil Sharma, Anwar Khan, Sanjay Bhagat, Pradeep Singh, Ashok Sharma, Jatinder Sethi, Fazal Hussain, Anis Ahmed, Imtiaz Qazmi, A R Giri and Ramesh Thakur.
