Chandigarh:
The Punjab executive on Thursday cancelled the Gurdaspur management’s determination to deploy twenty-four college academics at 4 distilleries to watch the provision of liquor. The transfer used to be introduced after the opposition slammed the Congress executive for the verdict.
In keeping with the order issued via the place of business of the Gurdaspur deputy commissioner, in view of the corona disaster, 24 academics have been to be deployed at liquor factories to control the provision of alcohol. They have been to be appointed as particular magistrates with Tehsildar Batala as their nodal officer.
An inventory of presidency workers made for the duty incorporated academics of state-run colleges.
Shiromani Akali Dal chief and previous state training minister, Daljit Singh Cheema termed the verdict “shameful”.
“The officer who handed the orders must face motion. Sale of liquor isn’t the one factor that the Congress executive must be obsessive about,” he mentioned.
AAP MLA Aman Arora known as the verdict “unlucky”, and mentioned the picture of academics have taken a success.
“After deploying academics at barricades and grain markets, the Congress executive now needs academics to watch the provision of liquor. This displays the regressive mindset in opposition to our nation-builders,” he mentioned.
College academics had additionally slammed the verdict. “It is a shameful order to mention the least. How are you able to ask college academics to protect distilleries?” mentioned a girl instructor from Amritsar.
The district management later withdrew the order. “Academics’ tasks at liquor factories were cancelled with rapid impact,” it learn.
