JKSA strongly condemns the brutal murder of a minor girl in Budgam. This heartbreaking incident has shaken the conscience of society. We demand strict punishment for the accused. Such barbaric cruelty has no place in a civilized society and must be condemned by one and all.

[J&K Students Association @JKSTUDENTSASSO]

If medical students, young doctors, interns or healthcare professionals across J&K are facing violence, threats, harassment, intimidation, workplace abuse, we urge them to immediately get in touch with our Medical Wing @JKMedicalAsso or Email at [email protected]

@NasirAh22984026 @NasirKhuehami I think you also need a promotion.....

[Shahid Shafi @ShahidShafi011]

It’s deeply alarming that the J&K Health Department is risking patient care by promoting non-clinical staff as CHOs. This undermines professional standards, violates eligibility norms, and sidelines qualified https://t.co/JMpLX9cAuo Nursing graduates.

[Nasir Khuehami (ناصر کہویہامی) @NasirKhuehami]

This order of promoting Sanitary Inspectors as Community Health Officers (CHOs) by DHSK is deeply alarming and represents a clear dilution of professional standards within the healthcare system.

The prescribed eligibility for CHOs mandates qualifications such as https://t.co/XNgRjqpOW7 Nursing, BAMS, or BUMS; credentials that ensure the clinical competence required to manage OPDs, deliver patient care, and implement critical health programmes. Appointing individuals without this medical or nursing background undermines the very foundation of primary healthcare delivery.

This decision raises fundamental legal and administrative questions. Under what rules or provisions have Sanitary Inspectors been made eligible for or converted into CHOs? Who authorized such a departure from established norms? The absence of clarity reflects a troubling disregard for procedure, merit, and institutional accountability.

Sanitary Inspectors are not trained for clinical responsibilities. Assigning them duties that require medical expertise is not only inappropriate but also poses a serious risk to patient safety and the quality of care.

Moreover, such actions appear to be in direct violation of the standards set by the Indian Nursing Council and the Jammu and Kashmir Nursing Council, which exist to ensure that only duly trained professionals are entrusted with clinical roles. Bypassing these frameworks erodes both credibility and trust in the healthcare system.

At the same time, the continued approval of new private nursing colleges encourages thousands of students to invest heavily in professional education. Denying them fair opportunities while placing non-clinical personnel in these roles exposes a glaring contradiction; raising a fundamental question; Are these students being prepared for employment or pushed towards unemployment?

This process reflects a deeper systemic failure. On one hand, professional education is being expanded; on the other, merit and qualifications are being disregarded. Such inconsistency is not merely unfair; it is exploitative and demoralizing for an entire generation of trained healthcare professionals.

The appointment of CHOs must be conducted through a transparent, merit-based, and separate recruitment process. Any deviation from this principle sets a dangerous precedent and weakens the integrity of the system. If left unchecked, this practice will damage public trust, compromise healthcare delivery, and lower professional standards across the region. The authorities must clearly state the legal basis of such decisions and ensure strict adherence to established norms.

There must be accountability. There must be transparency. Most importantly, this arbitrary decision must be withdrawn immediately to safeguard public health and protect the future of qualified healthcare professionals...

The helpline numbers provided by the Examination Conduct Section of the University of Kashmir are non Functional. Students trying to reach the examination wing for urgent issues related to examination forms, eligibility, and fee receipts are unable to get any response. 1/n

I request the concerned authorities and @JKSTUDENTSASSO
to kindly ensure that these helpline numbers remain functional and responsive so that students do not suffer during important academic processes.

The helpline numbers provided by the Examination Wing, University of Kashmir are not connecting. Despite repeated attempts, students are unable to reach any of the listed contact numbers during critical academic deadlines.

[Shahid Shafi @ShahidShafi011]

Such non-functional helplines create unnecessary stress and difficulties for students who rely on timely assistance for issues related to examinations, eligibility, fee receipts, and registrations. A grievance system that remains inaccessible defeats its very purpose.
