Rajeev Chandrasekhar seeks resolution to protest by Kerala PSC aspirants, writes to Satheesan
He says instead of suppressing the protesting youth, the government should be ready to listen to and resolve their problems
BJP State president Rajeev Chandrasekhar, an MLA, has penned a letter to Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan, urging the government to promptly convene the protesting Public Service Commission (PSC) aspirants and address their ongoing strike. The candidates, who are already included in the rank list and awaiting appointment, have been striking for 38 days now.
According to Mr. Chandrasekhar, it is a disgrace for Kerala that hardworking youth, who have secured a place in the rank list, are now struggling for their rights on the streets. He emphasized that it is the duty of a democratic government to hear the legitimate demands of the candidates and engage in discussions with them. Given the concerns expressed by candidates about the credibility and transparency of the PSC, their complaints must be taken seriously and appropriate steps should be taken.
Instead of silencing the protesting youth, the government should be prepared to listen and resolve their issues.
