JAMMU, OCTOBER 28: Government Medical College, Rajouri on Thursday terminated the services of an OT technician, Safiya Majeed, for allegedly putting up her WhatsApp status celebrating India’s defeat against Pakistan in the recent T-20 World Cup match.

The activity seems to be “disloyalty towards the nation’’, the termination order said, adding that no prior notice was required for her termination as she was engaged on the basis of Academic Arrangement.

Moreover, according to Head of Department of Gynae & Obst., she had proceeded on five days leave with effect from October 21 and she did not rejoin duty after the expiry of her leave period.

The Jammu and Kashmir government has already taken serious note of celebrations and raising of provocative slogans by some people in different parts of the Union Territory over Pakistan cricket team’s win against India in T20 World Cup.
