Haryana Govt changed rules for hiring staff nurses, alleges Randeep Singh Surjewala

Chandigarh, April 20

Congress general secretary Randeep Singh Surjewala has accused the BJP-JJP government of changing the rules for the recruitment of staff nurses to attack the unemployed youth.

He alleged the state’s Department of Medical Education and Research conducted the examination for the recruitment of 307 staff nurses on Sunday, but it scrapped the essential condition of registering with the Haryana Nurses Registration Council. The registered candidates of any Regional Nursing Council or Indian Nursing Council have been allowed so that the youth from outside the state can also be selected.

It is noteworthy that in an advertisement, issued in 2019, only the candidates registered with the Haryana Nurses Registration Council were eligible to apply.

Surjewala said when almost all states, including Uttar Pradesh, gives the opportunity to the registered candidates of the nursing council of their respective states to apply, then why was the Haryana Government, which has the highest unemployment in the country, discriminating against its youth.

Asking a direct question to the Chief Minister, he said when the registered unemployed youth of the Haryana Nursing Council can’t apply in other states, then the BJP-JJP government is anti-youth.
