Ajsu-P to launch statewide drive from Aug 9 seeking jobs for locals
Ranchi: Alleging that the state govt has failed to fulfil its promises related to employment, Ajsu-P on Monday said it would start a 'Sarkar Naukri Do' campaign across the state from August 9.
Addressing the media with party chief spokesperson Deosharan Bhagat, Sanjay Mehta said that in the first phase of the agitation, his party would submit memorandums to managing directors and the chief executive officers of private companies seeking information regarding the number of local people they employ.
"The outsourcing companies would be asked whether they are following the state govt's 75% reservation policy for the locals or not.
There is no compliance with reservation in outsourcing of jobs at present," he said.
The party would also submit memorandums to recruitment commissions for the timely completion of competitive examinations. The recruitment processes started by the state govt are getting involved in controversies though it promised that the process would be transparent and timely. There are over 2 lakh vacancies in the govt, he further said.
Bhagat said resolutions for celebrating the Hul Diwas, to commemorate the fight of Sidu Kahto against the British in Santhal Paragana on June 30, were passed. The party would observe the martyrdom of its founder member, late Nirmal Mahto, on August 8 and Adivasi Diwas and the August Kranti Diwas on August 9.
JMM's central general secretary Vinod Kumar Pandey said, "Ajsu-P is losing its relevance as it continues to mislead public. They must answer people that it was during their tenure as a BJP ally, that OBC reservation was reduced from 24% to 14% in Jharkhand. Ajsu-P should first clarify its stance on OBC reservation."
