The Association is hopeful that the instructions from Worthy CS to complete the regularisation process within one month will be implemented in letter and spirit.

Er Hidayatullah also appealed to the CS to give instructions for the fast-track recruitment of JEs, so that the dream of LG Administration providing 24/7 power supply is implemented in letter and spirit.

Expressing their appreciation, the J&K Civil Engineering Graduate Association stated, “We are highly thankful to Lt Governor Manoj Sinha, his administration, including the Chief Secretary, and Shaleen Kabra for this historic decision. It is because of their efficiency and hard work that such a decision has been taken by the administration.”

Furthermore, the J&K Civil Engineering Graduate Association highlighted another significant development in the Jal Shakti Department over the past year. They noted, “One more significant development in the Jal Shakti Department in the past year is that over 1,400 regularizations have taken place in the department, which is historic.”
