Budging to the pressure from the united Opposition and some ruling party members in the Council, the government has decided to withhold the notification prescribing a minimum qualification of SSLC for regularising services of cooks working in hostels and residential schools coming under the Social Welfare Department. This decision was announced by Leader of the House in the Council and Home Minister G. Parameshwara on Thursday while replying to a calling attention notice moved by Congress member Motamma.
She took exception to the government fixing a minimum qualification of SSLC for appointment and regularisation of services of cooks.
