IUML demands special recruitment for BCs

By Our Staff Reporter

KOLLAM, NOV. 20. The IUML leader and Minister for Local Administration, Kutty Ahmed Kutty, today said that the IUML would not hesitate to sever ties with the UDF if the Government failed to launch the special recruitment drive to fill up the backlog of Backward Communities in Government jobs. Mr. Kutty was inaugurating the Assembly of Backward and Minority Communities, organised in connection with the State-level special convention of the Latheen Catholica Aikya Vedi here.

He said his party had been pressing for the special recruitment right from the time the UDF came to power. "There are limitations for IUML to launch an agitation for the purpose, but if the State Government continues to ignore the special recruitment issue, the IUML would be constrained to think in terms of quitting the UDF."

Stating that the IUML was a party that stood for social justice, he said special recruitment was not only a justified demand, but a necessity for social justicein the contemporary situation.
