Earlier, the SBM employees told KNS that the government has failed to regularize their duties from past 10 years. “We are serving the department from past ten years but unfortunately the government has failed to fulfill their promises done with the employees. Even a single employee has not been regularized from past several years, which is totally injustice with us,” the employees said.
They said that all the promises done with them have proved hoax on the ground. “The monthly salaries we are getting is insufficient and the government is ignoring the plights of the employees. We must be regularized so that our families could feel a sigh of relief,” they demanded.

They later appealed Chief Minister, Mehbooba Mufti and the concerned Minister to look into the matter and redress their genuine grievances at earliest.

Meanwhile, as soon as the protesters tried to march towards Altaf Bukhari’s residence, police used batons and water cannons to disperse them.

However, scores of SBM employees were also detained by the police. (KNS)
