Ferozepur, October 30, 2012: To register their protest, the Railway employees today by wearing the black strips on their arms, staged protest in front of the Divisional Railway Hospital, to fill-up the vacant posts in Divisional Railway Hospital, instead of abolishing the same.

Giving information, Karanjit Singh Garg, president said, the number of patients are increasing day by day because normally the retired railways employees get their treatment from the railway hospital itself and there is a need to fill up the vacant posts instead of abolishing the same.

He further said, majority of the vacant posts are of safai karamcharis and in case these posts are abolishing, one can well imagine the condition of hospital in the absences of cleanliness which will directly affect the patients besides the visitors. The 19 posts are being abolished which include 2 cook, 2 waiter and 15 class IV employees, attached with medical and sanitation work in the hospital and demanded the restore these posts.

The protestors were also addressed by Sarwar Singh, Balraj Bansal, Ramandeep Singh, Neelam Bala, Inder Dev, Ram Bhalla and Rajinder Kumar.
