About 19000 Patwaris of Madhya Pradesh are once again going to protest. They are demonstrating in a phased manner on issues including grade pay and now they will not even do the work of land rights, housing, PM-CM farmer and they will withdraw from the 'Sara' app on June 26.
President of Madhya Pradesh Patwari Sangh Upendra Singh Baghel told that after collective logout from 'Sara' app, they will be uninstalled. Ownership, PM-CM farmers, residential land rights etc. are done through this app. Till now, they were doing this work from their own mobile phones. Many times the demand was raised to the government level that we should be given government mobile phones but it did not happened. That is why now 'Sara' will not be done on the app. On June 26, all the Patwaris will simultaneously uninstall the app.
On the call of Madhya Pradesh Patwari Sangh, Patwaris have been agitating for the last several months for abstaining from demarcation work, giving Rs 2800 grade-pay on the basis of equal pay for equal work and other issues in all the districts of the state. He has also been on leave for three days in May.
Patwari Sangh President Singh said that Patwaris lack resources. On the other hand, there is pressure on the patwaris due to non-demarcation work by 500 revenue inspectors appointed under the special recruitment drive, as the patwaris are already overburdened. Patwari cannot do demarcation work in such a situation. On the other hand, on the 'Sara' app, they are working on their own mobile phones only, while the government should give them mobiles.
