Guwahati, Aug 7 (Ajit Weekly News) Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma claimed on Wednesday that from 2001 to 2014, people from a particular community were recruited in police and forest department, but after the BJP came to power, things have changed.

Attending a passing-out parade of women constables in the Assam Police headquarters in Dergaon, he said, “The current government looks deeper into the recruitment process, where we not only give thrust to the transparent process of appointments, but also ensure that every region, caste, and religion get represented.”

“I have conducted an analysis and found that during 2001-14, at least 35 per cent of people belonging to a particular community got jobs in the Assam Police, with a similar trend in the state forest department too. Now, in a changed situation in our tenure, we see Hindu, Muslim, and Christian – youths from all religions working as forest guards. This is a picture of larger Assam,” he said.

CM Sarma also attacked the previous Congress government for “corruption” in providing government jobs.

He argued, “Today, we have been giving jobs to lakhs of youths in Assam, but not even a single case of corruption happened in the entire process. If anyone asks the fathers and mothers of those who got government jobs, you will see that they don’t have any political connections. They are poor people, and they don’t have money to pay a bribe for getting a government job for their children.”

The Chief Minister asserted that the current dispensation’s commitment to conducting a transparent recruitment process in the state will live on forever in Assam’s history.

“If we remove the works of the Gopinath Bordoloi and Bishnuram Medhi governments, only the BJP government in Assam has given jobs without a single case of corruption charges in the entire process. The coming generations will praise strong initiative,” he added.

Taking a jibe at the opposition, he said that those who take lakhs of rupees in the name of government jobs can never build a new Assam.
