We have
repeatedly clarified that in the Cadre Restructuring -
2013 of CBEC (notified on 18.12-2013), 489 senior level posts ( Principal CC to
JC) have been created whereas 500 posts (regular ) have been created at the
cutting edge level i.e. DC/AC. The consequential vacancies at the level of AC (
regular) will be 989 ( 489 + 500), which is as per cabinet approval to be filled-up @ 50% by promotion and 50% by
Direct Recruitment in accordance with the RRs. It
is mentioned vide para 6 of the circular F.NoA.11019/08/2013-Ad.IV dated 18.12.
2013 that-" Pending notification of revised recruitment rules, wherever
required the newly created/re-designated posts will be filled up on the basis
of the extant Guidelines for Recruitment Rules, issued by the Department of Personnel
& Training". As per para 4 of the said circular the temporary AC posts of 2118 nos. will be filled up only on
promotion from the feeder grades specified in the India Revenue Service
(Customs & Central Excise) Recruitment Rules, 2012 . These temporary posts
are Gr-A and those will occupy the temporary posts will be required to be regularized
against regular posts to be eligible for further promotions as per Cabinet
approval. AIACEGEO has already representation to allow 100% promotions against
regular posts and 100% promotions to Superintendents of Central Excise against
temporary posts by relaxation of RRs. AIACEGEO has also submitted representation for immediate down grading of the higher posts to be lying vacant on the
ground of non eligible of persons to get promotion, immediate DPC, continuance
of temporary posts after 5 years and to allow promotion to STS posts to the
occupant of temporary posts. To achieve all these demands it is required to
conduct agitation, otherwise nothing will be achieved by submitting a simple
representation.
