Regularise contract employees within two years
“the Congress in its manifesto that was released here promised that all arrears of the employees would be cleared and contract employees would be regularised within two years.”
The verdict
A December 2023 notification regularised contract staff who completed two years by 31 March 2024, but regularisation now happens once a year instead of twice, so some staff wait up to about three years.
Rule applied: Kept with a small dilution → 9
