T-employees union oppose non-locals in GHMC

Hyderabad, May 27 : The Telangana Municipal Employees and Workers Association on Tuesday demanded that non-local employees of Andhra and Rayalaseema regions be allotted to the Residual State of Andhra Pradesh based on the nativity without resorting to options.

In a representation given to GHMC Commissioner Somesh Kumar, Association President Triparthi Yadaiah and General Secretary P Jagan Mohan said that the non-local employees, irrespective of their cadre i.e., State, Zonal, Multi Zonal and District who are working in GHMC and other Municipalities in Telangana area should be allotted to Andhra Pradesh based on the nativity without resorting to options. They said that the employees who were appointed illegally in various categories violating the Presidential Order, 1975 in the GHMC and other Municipalities in Telangana should also be allotted to the residuary State. They said the repatriation should be done before June 2, the Appointed Day when Telangana State will come into existence. They also demanded removal of non-local contract employees before the Appointed Day.

The Association also demanded that the vacancies so created after allotments to Andhra Pradesh and repatriations shall have to be filled up through a special recruitment drive.

The Association strongly opposed the contract being given to M/s Ramky for clearance of garbage in the GHMC jurisdiction. Besides causing financial burden on the GHMC, the contract will pose a threat to hundreds of contract labourers who are engaged in the clearance of garbage in the city for many years. The State Government of Telangana may review the issue and take appropriate decision in the matter, the Association leaders said.  INN
