Cadre restructuring in CBDT
ReplyDeleteObjective of cadre review--- Overcome from shortage of manpower and provide promotional avenues for employees. Overall growth by boosting the moral of officers/officials by providing better future prospect.
Creation of fresh Group B & C posts-
ITO ---1494 through 100% promotion(as per present RR)
ITI----3803 through 33.33% DR and 66.66% through promotion (as per present RR).
On filling up these vacancies as per existing promotion norms. all eligible inspectors to ITOs and E.A.s to ITIs . In this way, there will be change vacancies of around 4029 in the grade Executive Assistant also department is going to create additional of 5932 posts of E.A.s. There will be a total of 9961 vacancies in the grade of E.As. But it is Important to say that for promotion to the grade of E.A. following criteria are required to be filled :-
1) T.As/Steno-III must have to pass Ministerial depart. Exam.
2) T.As/Steno-III must have to complete three years of qualifying service.
It is well known fact that at present trend of promotion from T.A.s to Sr. T.A is very fast and very few eligible candidate are left over for promotion to the grade of Executive Assistant.
Now the question arises about the deficiency of workforce at the level of E.A. It is also well known fact that E.A. will be the one of the vital post of Income tax department. Deficiency at this level will definitely hamper the working of the department and also the goal of cadre review will not be achieved.
What should be done to overcome this situation?
It is high time to revise the present Recruitment Rule of ITI s and Executive Assistants as below :-
1. There should be 100% recruitment of ITI s through promotion, instead of present provision of 33.33% by DR and 66.66% by promotion. As there are large number of ITI s departmental examination passing candidates are waiting for promotion. It is no meaning of recruiting a fresher, instead of qualified/experienced persons available for promotion to the grade of ITI s . It will also boost their moral and enhance their productivity.
2. Secondly there should be 50% recruitment of Executive Assistants by Direct recruit and 50% through promotion.
In this way the shortage of manpower due to promotion of E.As to ITI s and ITI s to ITO s will definitely be removed. And the goal of Cadre Review will be achieved.
I hope the association may look in this matter seriously.
