RAJOURI, APRIL 08: Deputy Commissioner Rajouri, Abhishek Sharma, has taken serious note of complaints received regarding alleged discrepancies in the appointment of AAYAs in Zone Thanamandi. Several deputations approached the DC and submitted formal grievances, prompting immediate administrative action.
Acting on the directions of the Deputy Commissioner, the Chief Education Officer (CEO) Rajouri constituted a committee to conduct a preliminary inquiry. The inquiry revealed significant procedural lapses and violations of prescribed norms, thereby undermining the fairness of the recruitment process.
In light of these findings, the CEO Rajouri has cancelled the appointments made under the previous process and directed fresh advertisement of the posts to ensure a fair, transparent, and merit-based selection. Additionally, an enquiry has been initiated against the concerned Zonal Education Officer (ZEO).
DC reiterated that transparency and accountability are non-negotiable in all government recruitments, especially those related to early childhood care. He also issued strict instructions to the concerned authorities to exercise due diligence and avoid such irregularities in the future.
