TNUES Employees Petition for Job Reinstatement in Coimbatore

Former employees of the Tamil Nadu Urban Employment Scheme (TNUES) in Coimbatore submitted a petition to the District Collector, seeking reinstatement after their jobs were terminated. They protested against the new hiring policy through self-help groups.


Coimbatore: Former employees of the Tamil Nadu Urban Employment Scheme (TNUES) have submitted a petition to the Coimbatore District Collector's office, pleading for job reinstatement after their positions were terminated.

The petitioners stated that they had been working in all wards of the Coimbatore Corporation for two years under the TNUES, a job opportunity provided by the Tamil Nadu government. However, they were informed by the Corporation that their employment had been discontinued.



According to the former TNUES employees, the Corporation has now announced that jobs will be provided through self-help groups. They claim that this new policy restricts employment opportunities to only those who are members of these groups.

The petitioners expressed concern that this change would adversely affect the livelihoods of those not affiliated with self-help groups. They urged the authorities to make arrangements to ensure job opportunities for all former TNUES employees, regardless of their group membership status.



The former employees emphasized the importance of fair employment practices and requested the District Collector to intervene in the matter. They hope that their petition will lead to a reconsideration of the current hiring policy and result in the reinstatement of their jobs, which are crucial for their economic stability.
