Educated Unemployed Union Nagaland (EUUN) alleged violation of recruitment norms in the proposed Special Recruitment Drive (SRD) for 10 EAC posts for backward tribes (BT).
EUUN vice president Azeu Namcyn Hau and press secretary Inahoto Sema said the inclusion of Rengma tribe under SRD was also a violation of quota norm as the tribe was “officially an advance tribe”.
EUUN said it was not against SRD but against the “violation of recruitment norms” by state government. It also demanded apology from KT Thomas, PIO, directorate of tourism for “humiliating” its president and general secretary while they were collecting information under RTI act.
It termed the “misbehavior” of the PIO as “disrespect” to the union and as “an insult to the RTI act”. EUUN warned of “action” if the PIO failed to tender apology within “ten days” from the date of publication of the report. EUUN disclosed it has established one RTI monitoring cell comprising a convener and three members.
Year of Entrepreneurs beneficiaries are yet to receive financial assistance, added EUUN and urged the government to immediately release funds to selected candidates who under went training and have submitted their project reports.
