The Northlines
|05 July 2025
The Sheep Husbandry Department of Kashmir clarified on Friday that the mandatory one-year training is not a prerequisite for the promotion of Assistant Stock Men (ASMs) in the feeding cadre to Junior Shearers.
However, the department said that after promotion, candidates must undergo the required training before completing their probation or advancing further.
Speaking to the news agency, the department's Director, Rafiq Ahmad Shah explained that the training is required only after promotion, which itself depends on passing a skill test to assess the candidate's ability in animal handling and shearing.
