These sackings were cleared by a designated committee of the Jammu and Kashmir administration constituted for recommending cases under relevant section of the Indian Constitution.
Six employees of the Jammu and Kashmir government, including two police constables, were dismissed from government service for having terror links and supporting terrorists, officials said.
These sackings were cleared by a designated committee of the Jammu and Kashmir administration constituted for recommending cases under Article 311(2)(c) of the Constitution under which a government employee can be dismissed when the President or the Governor is satisfied that in the interest of the security of state it is not expedient to hold such an inquiry.
Of the six sacked, one Abdul Hamid Wani was working as a teacher. The officials alleged that before being in government service, Wani was a district commander of the now-defunct terrorist outfit Allah Tigers.
It is alleged that Wani secured his employment without any selection process, by leveraging the influence of the banned outfit Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI) and that he was among the key speakers and organisers during the 2016 agitations after Burhan Wani, the poster boy of banned terror group Hizbul Mujahideen was killed.
