Sub: Cadre Restructuring of CBEC.
Sir,
            AGAIN THANKS A LOT TO CLEAR THE CADRE RESTRUCTURING OF CBEC.
2. It is also requested with due regards, particularly keeping in view the extraordinarily acute stagnation of Central Excise Superintendents/Inspectors, that-
i) Specific measures to grant parity with the common entry counterparts of CSS etc. may kindly be devised independent of cadre restructuring for the officers recruited, whether promotee or direct, as Inspector of Central Excise enabling them also to attain PB4 levels.
ii) The immediate steps may kindly be taken to convert the temporary posts to permanent/regular,
iii) All the posts, whether temporary or permanent/regular, may kindly be filled-up only by promotions like the last cadre restructuring.
iv) All the posts/vacancies (newly created and cascaded downwards on account of promotions on higher posts) may kindly be filled-up in one go like the last cadre restructuring.
v) All the posts at STS (Deputy Commissioner) level may kindly be initially operated at JTS level (Asst. Commissioner) in terms of the provisions of GFR 254 or be converted to JTS level keeping in view that all the officers at JTS level are to be automatically promoted to STS after 4 years of service.
vi) No direct recruitment may also kindly be made to IRS at least for next 5 years after the implementation of cadre restructuring.     
Thanking you,
                                                                                                                                                Yours faithfully,           

(RAVI MALIK),

Sub: Filling-up of the regular vacancies/posts of Asstt. Commissioner.
Madam,
            It is submitted with due regards that a total of 402 posts are vacant in Group ‘A’ as on 01.01.13. This figure may have increased on account of the retirements after 01.01.13. In addition to it, 489 vacancies of Asstt. Commissioner will cascade on account of promotions to higher Group ‘A’ posts as per the implementation of cadre restructuring. 200 additional posts of Deputy Commissioner and 300 of Asstt. Commissioner are also going to be created on regular basis as a result of cadre restructuring in addition to 2118 temporary posts for 5 years. Thus, the total of regular posts at the level of Asstt. Commissioner comes to be 1391+.
            2. It is being expected that the above stated 2118 temporary posts would be filled-up only by promotions in one go and also the vacancies arising out of the retirements against these posts would be filled-up only by promotions for coming 5 years.
`           3. Now on coming to filling-up of 1391+ regular posts particularly keeping in view the extraordinarily acute stagnation of Central Excise Superintendents, it is requested that the direct recruitment may kindly be minimised to minimal or all of the posts may be filled-up by promotions in one go and make no direct recruitment to IRS at least for next 5 years after the implementation of cadre restructuring. It will also help to improve the stature of direct IRS. Even if any minimum direct recruitment is made to these posts (say that it is 100 or 150), the remaining 1291+ or 1241+ posts may kindly be filled-up by promotions in one go and, thereafter, the posts being vacant on account of retirements also be filled-up by promotions. No need to say that the officers promoted to these posts would retire around within one year on account of their promotions at the fag end of the career and, thus, there would happen no administrative inconvenience.    
 Thanking you,
                                                                                                                                                Yours faithfully,           

(RAVI MALIK),

To,
Ms. Praveen Mahajan,
The Chairperson, CBEC,
North Block, New Delhi.
Sub: Regularisation of ad hoc promotions as per the verdict given by Hon’ble Supreme Court.
Madam,
            Kindly refer to the Ref. No. 198/R/13 Dt. 04.07.13 and various other communications of the Association addressed to the administration on the issue.
2. It is again submitted with due regards that the Hon’ble Apex Court directed the CBEC vide the verdict of 03.08.11 in CWP No. 385/10 to regularise all the ad hoc promotions made to the post of Asstt. Commissioner. These ad hoc promotions are to be regularised since 1997 as no regular DPC has been conducted for the promotion to the post of Asstt. Commissioner since then.
3. It is also well pertinent to submit that the CBEC sought the time only upto October,12 from the Hon’ble Supreme Court for conducting the DPC to regularize the said promotions. The time limit of October,12 has already expired by more than 10 months but no DPC has been conducted till date.  
4. It is also worth to mention that the said DPC is required to be conducted as per the Recruitment Rules in force on the date of DPC and also the provisions of extended panel are to be applied to the DPC.
5. In this regard, your kind attention is also invited to the DOPT OM No. 28036/1/2012-Estt(D) Dt. 03.04.13 under the subject of Ad-hoc Appointment/Promotion-Review of-Regarding. Its first para says that as per the extant policy of the Government, all posts are to be filled in accordance with provisions of the applicable Recruitment Rules/Service Rules. No need to say that the applicable Recruitment Rules in this case are new rules prescribing the ratio of 13:2:1 (it is another thing that these rules are also not acceptable to the Association) instead of 6:1:2 as old rules have already been repealed. Even otherwise, the Recruitment Rules in force on the date of DPC are to be applied for any DPC.
6. Further para 5 of the above mentioned DOPT OM reiterates that an ad-hoc appointment does not bestow on the person a claim for regular appointment and the service rendered on ad-hoc basis in the grade concerned also does not count for the purpose of seniority in that grade and for eligibility for promotion to the next higher grade. It means that all of the ad-hoc promotions made upto the post of Chief Commissioner & above are unlawful and all the officers are required to be reverted back to their original/initial post by making due recovery of higher salaries from them. Para 6 of above OM reiterates that the ad-hoc promotion shall  automatically cease on the expiry of the one year term, if the approval of the Department of Personnel & Training to the continuance of the ad-hoc arrangement beyond one year is not received before the expiry of the one year period. 
7. In view of the above, it is requested that the said DPC may kindly be conducted immediately as per the Recruitment Rules in force on the date of DPC applying the provisions of extended panel.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,


(RAVI MALIK),
Secretary General.
