Prayagraj,
23 Jan (HS): The administration's refusal to grant permission to the Rozgar Panchayat,
proposed on January 23, the birth anniversary of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose,
under the Yuva Mange Rozgar campaign, is a direct attack on
democracy. This allegation was made by Engineer Sunil Kushwaha, National
President of the Pragatisheel Samaj Party. Engineer Sunil Kushwaha stated that,
alarmed by the growing popularity of the Rozgar Panchayat, the administration
deliberately delayed the permission until the last minute, disappearing the
documents related to the permission, and making the workers run from pillar to
post seeking permission. He stated that this is not an administrative lapse,
but a deliberate conspiracy to suppress the voice of the youth. Kushwaha
further stated that the youth of Uttar Pradesh have been wasting their lives
and future waiting for jobs for years, but the government has neither a roadmap
nor accountability regarding employment. Paper leaks, stalled recruitments, and
unfulfilled promises are proof that the government is running away from the
issue of employment.
PSP
chief warned that such tactics will not weaken the fight for employment, but
will instead intensify it. A new date for the Rozgar Panchayat will be
announced soon. He said that this movement will continue until the youth
receive their right – employment.
Ajit
Patel, state vice president of the Pragatisheel Samaj Party, said that Uttar
Pradesh has today become a hotbed of unemployment, paper leaks, and stalled
recruitment. The Prime Minister's promise of two crore jobs every year is
nowhere to be seen on the ground. The government has completely failed to
provide employment to the youth and is now resorting to repression.
Advocate
Nishtha Dev, State General Secretary of the Pragatisheel Samaj Party Youth
Front, said that the diversion of youth vehicles, the summoning of officials to
police stations, and the dispatch of police to their homes demonstrate the
government's panic. She added that the youth are no longer afraid and are fully
prepared for a decisive fight. In addition to party officials and workers, a
large number of students and youth were present on the occasion.
