LATEST MAIL FROM SHRI RAVI MALIK ON CADRE RESTRUCTURING
Dear friends, 30.05.2011
Good afternoon.
Cadre restructuring proposal has been cleared by FM. Now note will go to cadre review committee comprising Cabinet Secretary, Secretary Revenue, DOPT & Expenditure and also Chairman of CBEC in our case. Secretary Revenue & Expenditure as well as our Chairman have already cleared it. Only the formal clearance of Secretary Cabinet & DOPT is required as the part of cadre review committee.
Now, it is clear that they would do nothing more for us in the matter and only 24% of our officers would be able to retire as AC as per the existing formula. It is, however, also true that we are going to get the promotional posts never expected. But side by side it is also true that all the eligible officers belonging to other cadres would be promoted and their promotional vacancies would remain unfilled. The Examiner of 2005 & Appraiser of 2008 will become AC. Moreover, direct recruit Examiner of 2005, 2006, 2007 & so on will certainly retire as Commissioner or above.
So, it is not the end. Be ever ready for the struggle.
Regards
Ravi.
