The association is protesting against the state government's move of raising the retirement age of CMD and Directors of PSPCL from 62 to 65, saying it is the violation of tripartite agreement signed at the time of unbundling of erstwhile PSEB in 2010.
“It was against the concept of professionalism in power sector,” Singh said.
He said the state had also failed in notifying the common recruitment and cadre of PSPCL and Punjab State Transmission Corporation Limited (PSTCL), adding that the issue of difference in pay scale of new engineers and old engineers had not been resolved yet.
Besides, engineers have also been demanding setting up of a 1,320 MW thermal power plant in state sector, rationalisation of work load of engineers, and bringing distribution reforms.
