If sources are to be believed, then the government will directly confirm the employees kept on contract in the government. Outsourcing means that employees hired through companies can be out of it. For contract employees also, the government can impose a condition of completion of 10 years of service.
The AAP government had formed a cabinet sub-committee under the leadership of Finance Minister Harpal Cheema. In which ministers Harjot Bains and Gurmeet Meet Hair were also members.
Policy will be made regularly
The Punjab government will formulate a policy in this regard. In which the Supreme Court’s decision of Uma Devi Vs Karnataka Government has also been kept in mind. The previous Congress government also announced to make the employees firm but it got stuck in legal scrutiny. Therefore, the AAP government can now make a separate cadre for these employees while making a policy.
There was an objection from the Governor’s office on the proposal of Channi Sarkar
In the previous Congress government also, it was announced to make these employees firm. Under the leadership of the then CM Charanjit Channi, the government passed the resolution in the cabinet and sent it to the governor. However, it did not get the approval of the governor. There was an objection to the cases going on in many courts from the governor’s office and an explanation was sought from the government. Channi Sarkar did not clear the objections. In order to take advantage of the elections, boards have already been put up all over Punjab to confirm the employees.
