The State government has increased the reservation accorded in allotment of government quarters to differently abled employees from three per cent to four per cent. With this decision, the differently abled government employees will be able to secure government accommodation in greater numbers than before.
The government under chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat has been taking various popular decisions in public interest. As part of such measures, the government comprehended the problems faced by the differently abled employees and provided them considerable relief. In the past, such employees had to struggle considerably in order to secure a government accommodation. As only three per cent reservation in allotment of government quarters was provided for differently abled government employees, at times eligible differently abled personnel were unable to get government accommodation. By increasing the reservation to four per cent, the government has attempted to resolve this problem.
Under the direction of the chief minister, the state’s social welfare department has increased the reservation for all categories of differently abled government employees in allotment of government quarters to four per cent. The estate department has also granted its approval to the same and after receiving the approval of the chief minister the content of the directions to be issued to all departments regarding housing allotment has also been prepared.
