The non-teaching employees’ association of University of Health Sciences (UHS), Rohtak, on Wednesday raised concern over delay in the payment of their salaries by the Haryana government.
In a letter to the state chief secretary on the issue, the union said even as the employees of the health university are doing their duties roundthe-clock from day one of Covid-19 pandemic, they are not being given their salaries on time, creating financial problems for them.
The non-teaching employees’ association appealed that the salaries should be released in time so that they can focus on their work unhindered and serve the cause during the pandemic more efficiently.
Tarif Singh Nandal, president of UHS non-teaching staff, said the Union ministry of health and family welfare (medical education division), on June 18 ordered all states to release salaries of doctors and health workers doing Covid-19 duty on time.
The chief secretaries of all states/UTs were directed to ensure compliance of this order, violation of which was to be treated as an offence under the Disaster Management Act read with the Indian Penal Code and action would be taken against defaulting authorities, he added.
