Scores of the employees assembled at SDA office demanding an immediate release of long pending wages. “We have survived with the meagre salaries till now, why isn’t govt paying any heed towards us,” said protester.
Employees also said that when the funds have been allocated by the government then why the department is not releasing their wages.
“Despite working round the clock it’s so unfortunate that we were never acknowledged by the government,” they said.
“Tell us what shall we do? How can we feed our family and kids? We request authorities to think about us,” said a protester. The protest ended peacefully after getting assurances from Sonamarg police station that their grievances will be conveyed to the concerned authorities.
