Subject: Regarding non maintaining uniformity by Circles in making Adhoc Promotion of ASPs to PS Gr. B Cadre.

Respected Madam,

Your kind attention is invited to this office letter of even number dated 22/4/2013 wherein wrong methodology being adopted by circles while resorting to ad-hoc arrangement that too with total disregard to the statutory provisions was visualised. It was also brought to the notice of Directorate  that as per the provisions made in DOP&T’s O.M. No.28036/8/87-Estt.(D) dated 30.03.1988 read with O.M. No.28036 /1/2001- Estt.(D) dated 23.07.2001, promotions/ appointments on ad-hoc basis are to be resorted to a post which cannot be kept vacant in consideration of its functional/operational requirement.

 Madam, you will agree that as a  rule,  a  junior  should  not  be  promoted,  ignoring  his  senior  unless  the  competent  authority  ordering  the  ad-hoc  promotion,  considers  him  unsuitable.  But in Assam Circle two juniors to Shri Ganesh Kumar Sarmah, ASP (HQ), Tezpur Division are still working on ad-hoc basis in PS Gr. B cadre despite pointing out of the same by this Association. It means that inter-se-seniority has not been taken in to consideration while making the ad-hoc arrangements in PS Gr. B cadre.

            This Association therefore once again requested your honour to issue instructions to CPMG Assam Circle to post, officers in PS Gr. B cadre keeping in view  DOP&T guidelines  and as per the inter-se-seniority cum fitness immediately.          

            An early action and line in reply is requested. 

 Yours sincerely, 

Sd/-
