Shimla, Apr 4 – Himachal Pradesh Government announced in the state assembly on Tuesday that a probe would be held into the malpractices that occurred in the recruitment of employees during previous government.
This was stated by the Deputy Chief Minister Mukesh Agnihotri in the House today as he was replying to a walkout lodged by the Opposition BJP on the issue of the policy to outsource employees. He said the BJP government could bring a policy to outsource employees but it kept on indulging in the illicit recruitment trades in the last five years.
He said an inquiry would be conducted into all the malpractices in the recruitment done in the last five years by the outsourced company Shimla Cleanways, which has been recruiting on a large scale on an outsourced basis.
He said this company cheated the unemployed people of the state. Forty crore rupees have been given to this company. Dy CM said a probe should have happened to know to whom this company paid money and whom not.
Government would if the PF of an outsourced employee deposited, all this will be investigated.
Mukesh Agnihotri condemned the role of the opposition members when it was in power stating that they have no right to walkout on the issue of termination of jobs of outsourced workers as it is their own deed. He said it has not been even 100 days since the BJP came out of power. The public has driven them out of power. They are not churning on why the public ousted them.
He said why did Jai Ram Thakur bring policy for the outsourced workers in his time, now when they are not in power but awakened now. Dy CM stated that earlier he did not know how to run the government and now he does not know how to play the role of opposition.This House has been functioning for 15 days. But today they got the time to bring adjournment motion. The government has not issued orders to remove any outsourced worker, if someone’s contract has expired then it is another matter.
Deputy CM said the government is committed to honour the recommendations of the cabinet sub-committee on outsource employees. After receiving these recommendations, a decision would be taken on the issue of bringing a policy. He said that the government has decided to fill up all the functional five thousand posts.
