• Omar Abdullah has to decide either Urdu in Naib Tehsildar's recruitment or Government: Arun Prabhat 

JAMMU: Arun Prabhat, state president Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha, along with hundreds of youth held a massive protest march from Kachi chawni and gheraoed the JKSSB head office in Jammu. During his address he cautioned the current Omar Abdullah led state government of intense agitation if the discriminatory decision of imposing urdu in naib tehsildar's recruitment has not been taken back.

It has been more than a month the youth is protesting on the roads but there is not a statement from the government or any competent authority. This adamant attitude of the government depicts their policy of intentional exclusivity to a particular region. Omar Abdullah or his cabinet ministers who represent Jammu in the government has to break the silence and clear their stance on this discriminatory policy otherwise next gherao will be of Civil Secretariat and chief minister's residence.

He described this recruitment as unconstitutional as it violates the very core of fundamental rights of getting equal opportunity in public employment. How can the government justify itself by barring 70% of subjects from this naib tehsildar's recruitment. Urdu in revenue matters and NT exam in particular is a well intended conspiracy to keep Jammu division in darkness.

In his concluding remarks he gave a call to all the aspirants and people of Jammu Kashmir to come forward against this discriminatory recruitment policy of the NC led government. Furthermore he urged the aspirants of non urdu background to apply for the post of Naib Tehsildar's recruitment as BJP will fight for their rights at any cost until justice is delivered.
