Demands of BDS Doctors genuine, LG must concede’

Dr Vikas flays BJP govt for pursuing anti youth policies

JAMMU, March 28: Slamming the LG Administration in Jammu and Kashmir working directly under the command of BJP govt from Delhi, Dr. Vikas Sharma, Coordinator Jammu District (Urban) and Secretary Central Zone JK National Conference criticized it for meting step motherly treatment to educated unemployed BDS doctors clamoring for their adjustment as Dental Doctors.

Dr. Vikas Sharma today called upon by several delegations of students and youth from across J&K and apprised him about the hardships and discrimination being faced by them due to misgovernance at the end of incumbent administration. He was told that the youth of Jammu and Kashmir were frustrated under the LG regime due to corruption and irregularities in the selections for govt jobs owing to which they were suffering badly.

Dr. Sharma reiterated the long pending demand of these unemployed youth for creation of new posts of Dental Surgeons in various hospitals across J&K.

He lambasted the hollow promises of the BJP Govt to give jobs in thousands. He said that aspirants under the banner of Dental Surgeons Association of Jammu and Kashmir protested at Jammu highlighting their long pending demand for recruitment of unemployed dental surgeons, but all in vain, as the LG Govt is still sleeping to resolve the issue of these doctors in order to adjust doctors by effecting new creation of posts.

Referring to the version of unemployed dental surgeons, Dr. Vikas expressed his deep concern that these unemployed doctors are undergoing great mental stress and awfully fearing for their bleak future prospectus in the line, because JK Govt has not so far created new posts since 2008 putting the career of these trained doctors in jeopardy.

Taking a dig at the so called efficiency of LG Administration, Dr. Vikas pointed out with anguish that since last 13 years not a single post of dental surgeon has been created by Jammu and Kashmir Government, as successive Governments including LG Administration have paid no heed to the loud voices of Dental Surgeons made in the shape of protests and demonstrations since over decade.

Dr. Vikas strongly supported the demand of Dental Surgeons and appealed to the Lt. Governor Jammu and Kashmir to intervene in the matter and urgently solve the issue of creating posts and adjusting the Dental Surgeons on the jobs without further loss of time and wasting the professional skills of unemployed doctors.

Dr. Sharma blamed the BJP led NDA govt at Centre for making the lives of J&K people miserable at all fronts by snatching statehood of Jammu & Kashmir. He demanded that full statehood must be restored before the conduct of Assembly Polls. He maintained that job opportunities have shrunked for local youth after the abrogation of Art 370 and 35 A in J&K.

He asked the youth to strengthen the hands of NC leadership for giving a befitting reply to anti youth policies of BJP govt in the forthcoming Assembly elections.

He described such moves as desperate acts of diverting attention as the BJP government has failed in generating employment and providing ‘two crores’ of jobs every year promised in successive elections since 2014.

He further said the frustrated youth is getting more and more drug addicted as the present government has failed to generate employment avenues.
