General Category Welfare Federation (PSPCL/PSTCL) held a gate meeting at head office Patiala seeking immediate appointment of Chairman and Staff of Punjab General category Commission.
Kuljeet Singh Rattol, President of the Federation, said that the Federation has written a letter to Chief Minister Punjab urging him to immediately appoint suitable persons for the posts of Chairman, Vice- Chairman and member of the commission.
The Punjab government has filled almost all the posts in different welfare boards and corporations but even after more than 3 years of the AAP government in Punjab the selection process for appointment in Commission has not been started.
In a press release issued by state president Kuljit Singh Ratol, Gurdeep Singh Tiwana Senior Vice President, Hargurmeet Singh Finance Secretary, Kanchan Kumar Joint Secretary, Ashok Chopra Press Secretary, Parvinder Singh, Rajiv Kumar, Mukesh Singla, Jatinder Kumar, Maninder Singh, Narinder Kathuria said that the Punjab government on August 8 appointed chairman and members of every category/institution, but the government has not appointed the chairman and members of the Punjab State Commission for General Category.
This has led to huge protests among the general category people, employees, students, farmers, traders etc.
"The Punjab State Commission for General Category" should appoint an experienced and qualified person as the Chairman and the Vice-Chairman and the remaining three members of the Commission should also be appointed immediately.
The General Commission should be given the power to work and should be placed directly under the Personnel Department so that the people of the general category can get proper hearing and complete justice.
