MP Police: Jabalpur: मध्यप्रदेश हाईकोर्ट का आदेश, होमगार्ड को दो पुलिस कांस्टेबल का बेसिक...

JABALPUR: In major big relief to more than 16,000 home guards in the state, MP High Court here on Friday directed the state government to give minimum or a basic pay of a police constable to them since January this year. A single bench comprising Justice Rajendra Menon also asked the state to provide them work throughout the year after taking into account their fitness level in accordance to the law, the home guard's counsel Mrigendra Singh told TOI.
Furthermore, the court said if required the state should constitute a high level committee or commission to look into their working setup and lay down the scheme, rules, regulations and statuary rules for their service condition, he added. Also, HC said that the home guards basic pay revision should be done akin to the police department from time to time till a separate set of rules are worked out for them. The HC also asked the state to take note of the Human Rights Commission's recommendation in connection with home guards. The court direction came while allowing a clutch of petitions filed by Home Guards Sanik Avam Pariwar Kalyan Sangh and others stating that their call off (lay off) period of four months in a year was rendering them jobless. In their plea, the homeguards said that they were living in an abject poverty as they were getting a paltry honorarium.
