Srinagar: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Health Mission Employees Association has announced a 48-hour sit-in protest and strike from April 1 across the territory to press for their long-pending demands.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, the employees from across the Kashmir Valley will assemble in Srinagar, where the main sit-in protest will be held. The Association said the strike is a decisive step after years of unfulfilled assurances and official apathy towards the genuine concerns of healthcare workers.<\/p>\n

The protesting employees are demanding immediate pay revision, a secure job policy, and implementation of comprehensive social security measures, including EPF, ESI, insurance, and post-retirement benefits.<\/p>\n

Employee leaders said NHM employees have played a vital role in strengthening the healthcare system, particularly during challenging times, but continue to face neglect, job insecurity, and lack of fair wages.<\/p>\n

They termed the strike a \u201cpeaceful but firm assertion\u201d of their rights, urging authorities to initiate immediate dialogue and resolve the issues without further delay.<\/p>\n

The Association has called upon all NHM employees to participate in the strike with unity and determination to send a strong message to the administration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
