The opposition National Conference today said that it would fight tooth and nail the "clandestine politicisation and commercialisation" of jobs under the "garb" of new recruitment policy proposed by the Jammu and Kashmir government.
"The very intent of the policy is malicious, which is why Governor N N Vohra has returned the draft ordinance after appreciating its fallout on future of the youth and in deference to the concern expressed by National Conference", senior NC leader and party MLA Devender Singh Rana said during a party function here today.
Rana termed the PDP-BJP government as "alliance of convenience and not conviction" and accused it of "performance inertia".
"Having failed on account of deliverance and realising the political uncertainty ahead due to their inherent contradictions, the coalition wants to derive as much as it can be resorting to destabilisation of well established intuitions to further their agenda" he alleged.
Rana described the new job policy as one such measure to indulge in favouritism and nepotism. "It is time for the PDP-BJP duo not to stick to false prestige on job policy and read writing on the face of unabated resentment shown by unemployed youth across the state", he said.
Rana said the enormity of unemployment problem should not be seen through a "political prism."
He also expressed concern over delay in releasing salaries, old-age pension, retrenching of Anganwadi workers and casual appointees besides, dilapidated condition of roads.
