Altaf Bukhari Demands Roll Back Of SRO 103
Srinagar, May 6: Apni Party President Altaf Bukhari urged the Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha to roll back Statutory Regulatory Order (SRO) 103 and address the age relaxation for Jammu & Kashmir combined competitive examination aspirants.
Bukhari in a statement said that the Youth of J&K is competent and determined for touching great heights, however the unmindful application of SRO 103 deprives them of equal opportunities even when many states across India allow aspirants of age 42 years to appear for the competitive examinations.
He said that age relaxation should be at par with other states of the country. “If parity in this issue is not achieved, our youth will be robbed of equal opportunities”, he remarked. “Youth of J&K has a progressive outlook, but SRO 103 forecloses equal opportunities for our aspirants. Haryana allows aspirants till the age of 42, UP, Rj, MP till 40 years of age then why not J&K? In all fairness for the future of our Youth, J&K government must ensure age relaxation”, Bukhari tweeted. Earlier a delegation of aspirants called on the Bukhari and raised the demand for equality, the statement said.
