JAMSHEDPUR – A delegation of Home Guards approached the Deputy Commissioner’s office in Jamshedpur to submit a memorandum, demanding that they be allowed to serve for the remaining time before their retirement as per their birth dates. The guards highlighted their plight, stating that despite their eligibility, they are being denied duty.
Guards Highlight Unfair Treatment
The Home Guards, who were recruited in 1994, claimed that some have 6 months and others up to a year remaining before retirement. Despite this, they have been left without assignments, leading to severe financial difficulties. “We are struggling to make ends meet, even though we are still eligible to serve,” said a representative of the delegation.
