Alleging bungling in government recruitment, the Congress demanded that the Manohar Lal Khattar dispensation present a white paper on employment in the Haryana government and PSUs.
"The Manohar Lal Khattar government should immediately present a white paper on the state of employment in government, PSUs and private sector with a time bound framework for filling up all vacant posts," Congress spokesman Randeep Singh Surjewala told media here.
"Bungling is going on in police recruitment in Haryana," he said.
The recuritment of 5,000 constables of Haryana police has remained disorderly and grossly unorganised, he said.
"There were several complaints regarding faulty electronic devices used for recording the race during police recruitment and biometric instruments not recording thumb impression correctly," he said.
"A myopic government failed to take note of the prevailing extreme heat and humidity conditions between June 18 and July 23 for conducting races," he said.
During the process of recruitment, several candidates, who completed the 5,000 metres race in 20 minutes, were declared ineligible, while those who took 24 minutes were declared eligible, he alleged.
"Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, while speaking at a function to honour wrestler Sakshi Malik in Bahadurgarh has declared that many candidates in Haryana police recruitment have broken the Olympic records," he said.
Either Khattar is telling a lie or the Staff Selection Commission is attempting to mislead everyone, he alleged.
