Dr Narinder Singh calls for ending biased age relaxation practice, fixing it with uniform law

JAMMU, March 19: Dr. Narinder Singh, MLA RS Pura-Jammu South and BJP National Secretary cautioned about victimization and exploitation on age issue in Universities in the J&K Legislative Assembly, correcting the flaw by the removal of chosen age relaxation and fixing the uniform age under static rule.

Dr. Narinder Singh stressed that the subject-matter of age fixation is the state subject. He said that the Pay commission takes relaxation in the matter of Age for employees that every State has the liberty to decide the issue on its own.

He cited the example of different retirement ages in various Universities in Jammu & Kashmir.

Dr. Narinder Singh said that the conditional age increase from 62 to 65 years suggests biasness. He said that either it should be directly fixed to 65 years. He said that the Vice-Chancellors do the victimization, adding that although the committee is framed, the case is represented by the Vice-Chancellor only.

Dr. Singh said that certain University employees having good profiles were not given age relaxation but the others were considered. He also said that certain persons who were given extension for the teaching posts are being given the secretarial posts doing injustice with the rightful person and also with the teaching post which suffers due to the biased decision.
