Jammu, 14 June (H.S.): Resenting controversial decision of compulsory Urdu Test for qualifying Naib Tehsildar recruitment examination, Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) today took out a strong silent protest march from the Jammu University main gate to Dr BR Ambedkar Chowk, Jammu.
A large number of BJYM workers alongwith aspirants from across the Jammu province participated in the protest march, raising their voices against this discriminatory and regionally biased move. The protest march was marked by spirited slogans and placards, asserting the rights of Jammu’s youth to fair and equal access to public employment.
State President of BJYM Jammu & Kashmir, Arun Prabhat, while addressing the gathering, lambasted the Omar Abdullah-led Government for introducing a policy that sidelines youth from the Jammu region. “This imposition of Urdu is a deliberate attempt to exclude deserving candidates from Jammu. Such regional discrimination will not be tolerated. We demand an immediate rollback,” he stated.
Arun Prabhat also appealed to civil society, legal experts, and political leaders to unite against this unfair policy and defend the constitutional rights of the youth of Jammu & Kashmir. This is not just about a language-it is about equal opportunity, regional justice, and inclusive governance.
Furthermore Arun Prabhat submitted a representation to the Divisional Commissioner, Jammu. He also urged LG Manoj Sinha to intervene into the matter to do justice.
