To,
The Chairman, CBIC,
North Block, New Delhi.
Sub:
DPC for the post of Asstt. Commissioner.
Sir,
As your
goodself is aware that our officers are forced to retire every month without
promotion for the want of DPC for the post of Asstt. Commissioner without any
fault on their part. Already DPCs for two vacancy years are pending despite of
thousands of posts being vacant.
2. It
is unfortunate that no serious efforts seem to be made by the concerned
authorities in the matter. Our CBIC doesn’t seem interested to promote our
officers as we are told in every meeting by the concerned authorities that the Bombay
CAT case is main hurdle in the matter but, unfortunately, no seriousness in the
matter is being shown by the CBIC as no effort has been taken to resolve the
Bombay CAT issue for the last more than one year.
3.
The DPC can very well be conducted for ad-hoc promotions based on 1988 DOPT OM
(already provided to the CBIC authorities including your goodself) in case of
any court injunction or seniority matter. In the meeting held with your
goodself on 24.10.24, you were pleased to apprise the situation to the
Association and you were requested to do the needful in the matter. We were told
that the DPC is not being conducted due to a contempt petition against the
Revenue Secretary relating to the implementation of the catch-up rule.
4. To
resolve such situation, the CBIC must have given the benefit to the applicants
or approached the CAT or High Court seeking permission to convene the DPC, if
matter seems not to be resolved soon. DPC could have also been conducted by
keeping required number of vacancies unfilled for the applicants (as also
happened in the past) to give benefit to the regularly retiring and other due
officers. But nothing has been done in the matter and the case is keeping
prolonged in routine matter without any worry on the part of the concerned
authorities due to the matter perhaps being related to the promotee officers
instead of direct recruit IRS officers. In case of the direct recruit IRS
officers, the CBIC is always keen even to get relaxations from the nodal
departments but nothing such ever happens in the case of the poor promotee officers.
5. In
view of the above, it is requested to kindly take some serious and effective
steps on immediate basis to conduct the DPC, so that not a single officer due
for promotion is retired unpromoted for the want of DPC.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
(HARPAL SINGH),
Secretary
General.
