Lt Governor VK Saxena has sanctioned a relaxation of educational qualifications and age criteria for 88 victims of the anti-Sikh riots, facilitating their application for government jobs in Delhi, officials announced on Sunday.
This move allows the applicants, now eligible for positions as multi-tasking staff across various government departments, to benefit from increased employment opportunities.
The decision comes after continuous appeals from the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee and public representatives, as part of an ongoing rehabilitation effort initiated by the Union Home Ministry in 2006.
