JAMMU, MARCH 22: Lieutenant Governor Shri Manoj Sinha attended the Bihar Day Celebrations, hosted by Jammu Kashmir Raj Bhawan at Jammu.


The Lieutenant Governor conveyed his hearty greetings and best wishes to the people of Bihar on the occasion.

 “Since ancient times, Bihar has been known for its spirituality, rich history and vibrant culture. Magadha was core part of Bihar, which was known as the centre of education and culture.

First empire of India, Maurya Empire in Bihar established a united India.

There is a long list of Buddhism pilgrimage sites, including Bodhgaya, Rajgir and Griddhakuta, where Mahatma Buddha gave most of his sermons.

Bihar is also considered one of the most prosperous states in the field of literature. From Chanakya, Banbhatta, Aryabhatta, Vidyapati to Phanishwarnath Renu, Ramdhari Singh Dinkar and Baba Nagarjun in modern times, Bihar has been the karmbhoomi of great writers”.

Jammu, March 22: The Akhil Bharatiya Rashtrya Shakshik Mahasangh has urged the government to implement a transparent transfer policy in the Education Department to ensure fairness and efficiency in teacher placements.

During a meeting held in Ramban, Vippan Sharma, President of the Federation’s Ramban district unit, emphasized the urgent need to address various issues affecting the education sector. He demanded the immediate filling of vacancies for both teaching and non-teaching staff in schools across the Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmiri. He also called for the regularization of all cadres within the department at the time of their promotion.

Akhil Bharatiya Rashtrya Shakshik Mahasangh strongly reiterated its demand that teachers should be exempted from extra-academic duties, as previously assured by the Education Department. Members expressed concern that assigning teachers non-teaching tasks hinders the delivery of quality education and disrupts academic schedules.

The meeting also highlighted the failure of the J&K government to implement its own transparent transfer policy, adversely impacting the academic environment in schools. Speakers argued that the lack of a fair transfer mechanism results in unnecessary delays, hardships for teachers, and academic disruptions for students.

Teachers working in remote and far-flung areas of J&K and Ladakh particularly suffer due to irregular transfers, leading to a shortage of staff in these institutions. The Federation stressed that without a well-structured transfer policy, schools in rural areas continue to face severe staff shortages, ultimately affecting the quality of education.

Another key issue raised in the meeting was the infrastructure crisis in educational institutions. Many schools lack basic facilities, proper classrooms, and essential teaching aids. The Federation urged the government to take concrete steps toward improving school infrastructure and ensuring that all institutions are well-equipped to provide quality education.

Additionally, the regularization of all teaching and non-teaching staff at the time of their promotion was emphasized as a critical step in ensuring job security and career progression for employees. The Federation stressed that delays in regularization create uncertainty and discourage skilled individuals from joining the education sector.

Akhil Bharatiya Rashtrya Shakshik Mahasangh has urged the Education Department to address these pressing issues without delay. They called for:

Immediate implementation of a transparent transfer policy.

Filling up of vacant teaching and non-teaching posts to ensure smooth functioning of schools.

Exemption of teachers from extra-academic duties to let them focus solely on academics.

Infrastructure improvement in schools, especially in remote areas.

Regularization of all cadres at the time of promotion to provide job security.

The Federation warned that if these demands are not met, it may resort to peaceful protests and representations before higher authorities to ensure justice for teachers and students alike.

The House passed the Demands for Grants through a voice vote on Saturday evening.

Earlier, during the day, the Assembly discussed the Demands for Grants and Members of the House put forth their views and suggestions.

Winding up the discussion on Demands for Grants, Minister for Jal Shakti, Forest, Ecology & Environment and Tribal Affairs, Javed Ahmed Rana, extended his gratitude to the MLAs for their valuable suggestions and constructive observations on the demand for grants.

He said that inputs reflect the collective commitment of this House towards ensuring sustainable development, environmental conservation and welfare of the people of Jammu & Kashmir.

He said that the government is fully committed towards addressing the concerns raised while ensuring efficient utilization of resources to meet the aspirations of the people.

While speaking regarding the Jal Shakti department, Rana said that government is determined towards providing "Har Ghar Nal Se Jal" to all rural households and is utilizing resources from Jal Jeevan Mission, NABARD and UT Capex to provide fifty five (55) litres of clean drinking water per capita daily, conforming to BIS 10000 and 10500 standards.

“In order to achieve this objective, J&K has planned the execution of 3253 Water Supply Schemes at an estimated cost of Rs 13344.25 crore to provide new tap water connections as well as to upgrade the existing connections, provided under erstwhile programs, to make them JJM compliant by raising the new infrastructure as well as retrofitting the existing infrastructure, wherever required,” informed the Minister.

Reflecting on the achievements, he informed that major strides have been made in implementation of the Mission during the past 02 ½ years and more than 1400 (43%) Water Supply Schemes have been completed till date and out of remaining 1853 schemes, about 1500 schemes have recorded a progress of more than 50 percent.

Regarding the expenditure incurred, he said that it has picked up from Rs 441 crore on ongoing works in initial 03 years to 6560 on new works, in the past 03 years.

“J&K which languished at the bottom is now figuring at 5th in the overall functionality assessment conducted by the Ministry of Jal Shakti, GoI, through a third-party agency. The overall functionality of J&K has improved from 53 percent in the year 2022 to 74 percent in 2024,” he said. He added that J&K is ranking first in the Water Quality Monitoring and  Surveillance at the National level.

“All the 22 water testing laboratories at the UT and State Level have been NABL accredited for a robust water quality monitoring mechanism,” he added.

Field Testing Kits (FTKs) have been distributed among the local communities for conducting tests of water samples on their own, for which more than 37000 women have been trained for use of FTKs.

Rana said that every measure has been taken to ensure that the quality of pipes is appropriate and the quality check through reputed agencies is being done at the manufacturing site and by the Departmental Committee on receiving the material at the central stores.

The Minister said that transparency, accountability and quality control mechanism in implementation of the Mission has been given top priority and a slew of measures have been taken to ensure the same.

Rana also gave details about the funds allocated for Water Supply Schemes under other sources like NABARD Schemes (PHE Sector), Water Supply Scheme AIIMS Awantipora and AIIMS Vijaypur.

“The department is purchasing 10 fresh tankers to augment the existing fleet to ensure the department is better equipped to tackle water shortages and meet the needs of our citizens” he maintained.

Talking about the Irrigation and Flood Control Sector (I&FC), he said the department is committed towards expanding the irrigation coverage, supporting the farmers who cultivate Kharif and Rabi crops through existing infrastructure upkeep, enhancing irrigation potential, and implementing new projects.

He said that to increase the area under assured irrigation, we're collaborating on strategic initiatives, with Major irrigation projects funded under PMKSY-AIBP and Minor Irrigation Projects covered under PMKSY HKKP.

Rana further said that under NABARD loan assistance, 12 projects amounting Rs 177 crore have been cleared under RIDF 30. These projects comprised 8 irrigation sector projects and 4 flood sector projects, all set to commence in 2025-26. He called for a collaborative approach to work together to create a water-secure future, for the present times and for generations to come.

While talking about the Forest, Ecology & Environment, Javed Rana said that the department is set to achieve the target of planting 150 lakh plants during the year 2024-25 under the programme “Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam”, launched by Prime Minister. He said that the department's continuous efforts have led to positive results, as J & K recorded a net increase of 91.25 sq. km in forest and tree cover as per the Indian State of Forest Report 2023.

“During the current financial year, 16.251 lakh cft Timber was extracted and 13.67 lakh cft supplied by the J&K Forest Development Corporation. Further, 1.09 lakh cft timber has been supplied from Concessional Timber Sale depots and Fair Price Supply Divisions in 2024-25,” he said.

The Minister also said that the department is updating the State Action Plan on Climate Change (SAPCC) to address regional climate projections. This included assessing the sector and community vulnerabilities and integrating adaptation and mitigation strategies for resilience. The plan outlines 55 mitigation and 98 adaptation measures to be implemented by various departments by 2030, he said.

Regarding implementation of Forest Rights Act, 2006, Rana said that 6,058 claims have been settled in J&K, comprising 348 individual and 5,710 community forest rights claims.

To ensure systematic forest land diversion for development activities, cases are processed online through the PARIVESH portal. “So far, 2,775 forest clearance cases have been received, with 1,159 Stage-I approvals and 507 final approvals granted, leading to the diversion of 629.95 hectare,” he said.

The Minister said that the J & K Pollution Control Committee (JKPCC) has taken key steps to improve the Ease of Doing Business by extending the Consent validity period for industries and adopting a revised industry classification.

“The validity of Consent to Operate has been increased from 8 to 10 years for Orange category industries and from 12 to 15 years for Green category industries, while Consent to Establish is now valid for 5 years, extendable by 2 years. The revised classification, adopted in January 2025, promotes cleaner industries by reclassifying less polluting units to the Green category and placing pesticide formulation units under the stricter Red category,” he said.

Talking about Wular Lake, the largest freshwater wetland in Asia and a Ramsar site, Rana said that it is undergoing major restoration with a focus on ecotourism and local livelihoods.

Given the growing challenges of soil erosion and water scarcity, the Minister said that soil and water conservation has become crucial. “Check dams, slope stabilization, and water harvesting structures are planned in coordination with Agriculture, Rural Development, and Irrigation & Flood Control Departments to recharge groundwater and prevent erosion,” he asserted.

The Minister also highlighted the need for conservation of Wildlife saying that the Wildlife protected areas are being managed scientifically with approved plans, regular patrolling and strict enforcement of the Wildlife Protection Act.

In an important turn of events, Public Health Engineering (PHE) daily wage workers have started a 72-hour strike to demand regular wages and the release of their long-pending salaries. The protest is happening at many PHE offices and facilities across the region and has caught public attention because it could affect the supply of drinking water. This situation raises a key question: How can we ensure that workers' demands are met while also protecting the community’s need for uninterrupted water supply?

Why Are PHE Workers Protesting?

The PHE Department is responsible for providing clean drinking water to thousands of homes and public places. However, many of its daily wage workers face serious financial difficulties. They work long hours but do not receive a stable monthly salary. Their wages have been delayed for months, and their job status remains uncertain.

After multiple discussions with authorities failed to bring any solution, the workers have now decided to go on strike as a last resort.

Impact of the Strike on Water Supply

This strike affects not just the workers but also the general public. Many areas depend entirely on the PHE Department for water supply. If the strike continues, it could lead to:

  • Water shortages, especially in cities and densely populated areas.
  • Increased costs for families who may have to buy water from private suppliers.
  • Public health risks, as lack of clean water can cause hygiene problems and diseases.

Experts say that when daily wage workers are not paid on time, their motivation and productivity suffer. In the long run, this can cause serious service disruptions and affect low-income communities the most.

Two Sides of the Argument

Some people oppose the strike because stopping water supply services affects public health. They argue that using a strike as pressure puts ordinary citizens at risk.

However, supporters of the workers believe that they had no other choice. They argue that the workers have waited too long and tried other peaceful methods before taking this extreme step. They also point out that timely payment of wages and job security are basic rights of all workers.

The Need for a Quick Solution

This 72-hour strike highlights two important issues:

  1. Water is a basic necessity for everyone.
  2. Workers deserve fair wages and job security.

If the government and authorities do not act quickly, both the workers and the public will suffer.

To avoid such problems in the future, policy makers, local leaders, and administrators must work together to:

  • Ensure timely payment of wages.
  • Offer job security to daily wage workers.
  • Create a long-term solution to prevent repeated strikes.

A balanced approach is necessary—one that respects workers’ rights while ensuring uninterrupted water supply. In the end, taking care of workers also means taking care of the community because water supply services depend on them.

The government and PHE authorities must urgently address the workers’ demands to prevent further disruptions. Fair treatment of workers is not just about justice—it is also about ensuring the smooth functioning of essential services like water supply. If authorities act wisely and quickly, they can resolve the issue in a way that benefits both workers and the public.
