There is joy among the home guards with the cognizance of the Ministry of Home Affairs: After taking cognizance by the Ministry of Home Affairs, there is joy among all the home guards. The home guards are calling it the first step to victory in their favour. Ravi Mukherjee of Jharkhand Home Guard Welfare Association said that it is a matter of joy for the home guards across the country. Be it the security of government departments, the security of the bank or the arrangement of police stations and traffic. Be it elections or emergency, in any situation, the Home Guard personnel have always taken the front, but were neither from the state nor of the center as a volunteer. Home Guard jawans have always been a victim of neglect. Now if the home guards get the status of state workers on the initiative of the central government, then the jawans will get a halt.
- Home Ministry sought report from all the commandants of the states
- Lakhs of postcards were sent to the Home Department from across the country.
This is a worthwhile initiative. Due to the British-era law, the home guards who walk shoulder to shoulder with the security forces are subjected to neglect. Today, when we are celebrating the nectar festival of freedom, the initiative of the Government of India to end this black law of the British era is commendable. The constitutional movement of home guards across the country became fruitful.
