16/12/2024



Jammu, December 16 (KIP)- R.K. Kalsotra, State President of the All India Confederation of SC/ST/OBC Organisations, today urged the NC Government to immediately restore reservation in promotions in Jammu and Kashmir.

Paying tribute to Janab Masood Choudhary on his second death anniversary at the Confederation Headquarters, Kalsotra said, “We have had a long-standing relationship with Masood Sahab, who always encouraged us to raise the issues of marginalized communities. We continue to work under his guidance.”

He further added, “Now that the government has been formed, almost two months have passed since its formation on October 17, 2024. Our employees are eagerly awaiting the restoration of their rights to reservation in promotions, which have been denied since October 2015. I appeal to Chief Minister Janab Omar Abdullah to address this issue promptly. The discontinuation of reservation in promotions has stalled the progress of our employees, and the entire community is looking to the NC government, known as the Justice Ki Sarkar, for justice.”

Kalsotra also requested an appointment with the Chief Minister to discuss other pressing issues affecting the communities.
