ISSUES• High employee turnover amongst extension workers on
consolidated pay due to persons being over qualified, not being satisfied with consolidated pay. They continually seek better carrier options. This causes loss of skilled manpower and recourses spent on trainings.
• Suggested to employ educated rural youths (10+2) from the same block.
• Poor response by Doordarsan due to lack of affiliation on by non local with the state issues.
• Non participation of All India Radio in the meeting of district level mass media committee.
• Lack of qualified personnel for registration under AC & ABC.• The response to the KCC calls made from Sikkim is
disheartening as the calls are directed to TN.
