A Respectful Appeal for Direct Recruitment Through Samagra Shiksha, Not Through Companies (VTPs).
We humbly appeal to the Hon’ble LG, Hon’ble CM J&K Hon’ble MoE and the Hon’ble Chief Secretary, to ensure that the upcoming 2000+ Vocational Trainer posts should be recruited directly by Samagra Shiksha J&K, JKSamagra not through private companies VTPs. Direct engagement is fully possible, as even Samagra Shiksha has clarified, and it is the only way to end the long-standing suffering of vocational trainers and improve the overall efficiency of skill development in J&K.
VTPs have consistently failed in every core responsibility. Placements remain ZERO, internships/OJTs are neglected, and salary delays continue for months, causing financial and mental stress to vocational trainers. Yet private companies VTPs continue to receive management costs year after year without accountability.
If the new posts are again routed through private companies (VTPs), they will earn ₹50 lakh every month (₹6 crore a year) merely as management costs for just 2000 posts, public money that could instead be used to strengthen vocational labs, enhance student training, and improve quality.
Direct recruitment by Samagra Shiksha JKSamagra will bring transparency, accountability, dignity, and cost-effectiveness, and will finally offer thousands of qualified unemployed youth in J&K a fair chance at stable employment.
We sincerely request that these posts be advertised as direct engagements under Samagra Shiksha, ensuring justice to vocational trainers, better outcomes for students, and responsible use of public funds for the future of vocational education in Jammu & Kashmir.
