Srinagar, Aug 25 :\u00a0<\/strong>National Health Mission (NHM) employees in Jammu & Kashmir have expressed strong resentment and concern over the non-payment of their salaries on time. They have urged the government to take the matter seriously on humanitarian grounds saying they are suffering a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abdul Rauf, chief spokesperson of Jammu and Kashmir National Health Mission Employees Association told the news agency\u2014 (KNO) that nearly 11,000 employees working under the ambit of National Health Mission in various hospitals across J&K are not receiving salaries on regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThese frontline workers are performing their duties that too without any risk allowances,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rauf said it has become a routine on part of the government to not release salaries to NHM employees on a timely basis. \u201cWe are working 24 hours and augment the health services to general people, but in return, we are being deprived of basic dues,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c90 percent of our share comes from the Union government but the money that comes as our salary is being diverted here, which results in delay,\u201d he claimed, adding, \u201cThere is a complete apathy on part of the government. The authorities are forcing us to hit the streets. We may be forced to take harsher steps the responsibility of all which will squarely lie on the government.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The spokesperson urged Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha to take serious note of the issue. \u201cThe LG Sahab should also initiate process regarding our job security so that we are able to put our best and concerted efforts to achieve the objectives of the Mission,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
