A Sarpanch from Dawar area has managed to enroll four of his family members in the Casual Labour list. One of the members Rahila Akbar Sheikh who is still a teenager figures in the list at serial number 1096.

“When one keenly observes the list particularly about the Gurez region, it is full of discrepancies. It seems as id people have been enrolled on the basis of their political approach,” senior Congress leader from Gurez Mir Hamidullah told news agency CNS.

He alleged that even illiterates have been enrolled in the list.

“Majority of the people enrolled as Casual Labourers are either students or affiliated with a particular political party. It is a big scam and even officials are part of this scandal,” Hamidullah said adding that even minors have been shown working in different departments as Casual Labourers.

He demanded a thorough probe and stringent punishment for those who deprive deserved aspirants and pave way for people on the basis of political affiliation.
