Bandipora, May 25: Prominent political and social activist Basharat Hussain Najar has demanded regularization of NRHM, ASHA workers and Contractual basis employees.
In a press statement Basharat Najar said that the paramedical staff, especially NRHM and Asha workers are doing a commendable job during the ongoing pandemic COVID 19. He said that NRHM employees who are the backbone of the Health Department were facing a miserable plight. They were recruited under a central sponsored scheme and have been rendering their services on Contractual basis since fifteen years.
Basharat Najar said Asha workers are playing a great role in rural areas in pandemic situations. He said that 61 thousand contractual employees who have been working in different government departments since the last 20 years are facing a lot of financial problems.
Basharat Najar appealed to the Lt. Governor Manoj Sinha to regularize NRHM, ASHA workers and Contractual basis employees who are working as frontline warriors in the current pandemic situation.
