| Don’t close options for youth to live peacefully: Tarigami | | ‘Implement cabinet decision on absorption of NYC volunteers’ |
Srinagar, September 3 (Scoop News)-Expressing serious concern over deteriorating health of National Youth Corps (NYC) volunteers who are on hunger strike demanding implementation of cabinet order, CPI (M) leader and MLA Kulgam Mohammad Yousuf Tarigami has urged the government and all political parties in the state not to politicize future of youth for partisan political interests and instead work jointly to address their uncertainty.
Tarigami, who met and talked to protesting NYC volunteers, at Pratap Park today rued the insensitive attitude of the administration who have not bothered to visit or depute any medical teams to enquire about health of protesting NYC youth.
Expressing solidarity with the protesting NYC volunteers, Tarigami demanded that the cabinet decision by virtue of which sanction was accorded to engagement of 6000 NYC youth, engaged in 2010 under National Youth Corps, vide order no. 737-EDU- of 2014 dated October 22, 2014 be implemented in letter and spirit.
He said the government must take a decision in order to end sufferings of the families directly or indirectly dependent on the volunteers. The CPI (M) leader also observed that the aggrieved unemployed NYC youth are running from pillar to post to get the cabinet order implemented and the present dispensation should at least honour a government decision that has been taken at the highest level.
He also cautioned political mainstream to refrain from politicizing the sufferings of educated unemployed youth at the time of electioneering. “The tendency to exploit the sufferings of youth at the time of elections must be do away with and instead all the political parties must join their heads together to chalk out a comprehensive plan to address the menacing problem of unemployment,” Tarigami said while urging the PDP-BJP government to decide the fate of thousands of NYC youth who are demanding justice.
Tarigami said the state government has been devising new schemes and recruitment policies but has never bothered about NYC volunteers who were compelled to take to streets after being relieved from services. “The present dispensation talks much about the future of youth but at the same time, you are closing down options for youth to live peacefully,” Tarigami remarked.
