The Vidhan Sabha Secretariat has started removing the employees appointed after the year 2016. Orders were issued to remove forty employees late on Monday evening. Confirming this, Speaker Ritu Khanduri said that the employees are being removed in a phased manner.

Vis Speaker Khanduri had constituted an inquiry committee on the backdoor recruitments in the assembly. This committee, in its report given on September 19, had called the appointment of all the personnel appointed in the Vidhan Sabha from the year 2000 to 2022 as against the rules. However, in respect of employees appointed before the year 2016, it was recommended to take a legal opinion.

On this, the Speaker had decided to remove the employees recruited after the year 2016. Khanduri said that retrenchment of employees has been started. The number of such employees is large, so this process will take some time. Employees allege favoritism Here, many employees appointed in the Assembly after the year 2016 have alleged bias.

He says that the decisions of the High Court and the Supreme Court have come in the matter of ad-hoc appointments of the year 2016. There was no expert related to law, or justice in the inquiry committee. In such a situation, why the legal opinion was not taken in the matter of employees appointed after the year 2016? He said that in December 2012, the employees appointed at the time of former Vis President Harbansh Kapoor and in August 2012 under Govind Singh Kunjwal were regularized in just one and a half years.

On what basis were they given relief? The employees termed the delay in seeking a legal opinion regarding the employees appointed before 2016 as biased. However, Speaker Khanduri said that legal opinion is being taken.
