Sopore December 21: Is any body listening, ask the Safayee Karamcharees working with Sopore Municpal Council. One of their colleagues was referred to Srinagar for treatment, however, with no money they held a protest in Sopore on Wednesday.
The Safayee Karamcharees claim that from past three months have not been paid their salaries, due to which their families are suffering.
“His family had no food from past four days and today he fell from stairs,” his colleagues said, adding that ‘same is the case with other 44 employees’.
The hospital, at Sopore, referred him to Srinagar but his colleagues claimed they ‘even don’t have much money to arrange his shifting to Srinagar and bear the medication cost’.
“From past three months we have been suffering, is any body listening to our woes,” they asked.
Executive officer Sopore Municpal Council, Abdul Miteen said ‘he is in a meeting ’ before hanging the call.
The protesting employees demanded their salaries be released soon so that their families would have a sigh of relief.
