Acting on customer complaints of manipulation by meter readers, the Delhi Jal Board has hired about 300 ex-servicemen on contract basis to facilitate the job.
“We have a lot of vacancies. The decision to hire ex-servicemen on a contract basis would help us in filling those vacancies on a contract basis,” said Prashant Goyal, Member (Finance), DJB.
According to sources, the Delhi Subordinate Service Selection Board has not carried out any new recruitment in the past few years, something that has left the Delhi Jal Board incapable of filling its vacant positions.
Goyal said the water utility has already issued letters of appointment to at least 300 candidates, of which at least 50 have already reported for work.
