Ban on appointment of relatives

Keduovilie Linyü The State Govt. is facing crisis and seek an answer; to remain in dilemma or to resolves to undertake the task of fulfillment with all reasonable means and resources to handle the case of appointment of relatives of retiring employees. Years ago, the  government had  decided not  to favour in appointment of  relatives/ children of those retired employees and also no Govt. employee  shall be given  the option to get their children or their  candidates appointment against the resultant vacancy of  their  normal or voluntary retirement. Such resultant vacancy should be advertised and filled up as per rules.  

There  exists  the policy and rules  that a government servant  can opt. for voluntarily retirement  after 20(twenty) years  of service,  however, they  cannot put a condition  that  the govt. should consider their request  for appointment of  their  children/ relatives against  the  resultant  vacancy. The order further says that in order  to give a fair chance  to others , and  also considering  the  unemployment  problem  amongst the youth ,  this  practice has to be  discontinued .   Evidently, still random practice of such appointment of relatives of those retired employees is continuing in different departments. The defaulting departments may have atleast some excuses and priority through influential high officials and politicians. The govt. cannot sleep for long on the issue, and should make an assessment of the progress if any made by the monitoring agency of such standing order.  We are aware that the Govt. has in mind that it has to maintain that there exist blood and body - politic and the policy of having a soul of prosperity and fairness.   Uprising number of educated unemployed imply a fundamental change in the outlook  of  the State , a deeper  concern , justice  and  fair  play which largely depend upon the  compassion. The  protest or   problems  cannot be wished away nor the govt. keep  up the  pretence  of  being concerned about the reservation  of  backward tribes or about  the educated employed youth. We want to live where people can choose to work, where all citizens are equal and where good policies are welcome. There is a tendency to revolve but cannot on the lines of existing rules. Let us think about the future destiny of those youth who hang in line at the square of Employment Exchange and should not allow them to live by slogan, their face and march in protest.
