Ms. J. M. Shantisundharam,
The Chairperson, CBEC,
North Block, New Delhi.
Sub: Promotions to the post of Asstt. Commissioner in r/o cadre restructuring and DPC’s in r/o panel years 2013-14 and 2014-15.
Madam,
Kindly refer to the various communications including Ref. No. 30/P/14 Dt. 06.02.14, Ref. No. 34/P/14 Dt. 10.02.14, Ref. No. 47/P/14 Dt. 26.02.14, Ref. No. 51/P/14 Dt. 03.03.14, Ref. No. 63/P/14 Dt. 26.03.14 etc. of the Association.
2. Your kind attention is also invited to the DOPT OM No. 22011/9/98-Estt. (D) Dt. 14.12.2000 regarding the responsibility to be fixed for the lapse in adherence to the prescribed time frame in holding of DPC’s. Despite of this OM, no serious efforts are being made to conduct the timely DPC’s for the post of Asstt. Commissioner.
3. It is again submitted with due regards that we are already behind by two panel years in holding the DPC’s for the promotions to the post of Asstt. Commissioner despite of the DPC being due to be conducted latest by the month of January preceding to the concerned panel year. Thousands of our officers due for the rarest IInd promotion have already retired on account of the delayed process of DPC’s. It is also worth to submit that six months are nearly to expire after Cabinet approval but the implementation of cadre restructuring is still awaited. The DPC against the post of Asstt. Commissioner was very much expected in the month of January, 14 (if not in December, 13) but nothing has happened till date despite of the relevant list of the concerned officers being forwarded to all of the Cadre Controlling Authorities by the DG, HRD very well in advance sometimes in the month of August/September, 13.
4. It is very unfortunate that around 100 of our officers are retiring every month without promotion due to the non-adherence to the prescribed time frame in holding of the DPC’s. Very specific & serious efforts are required to hold the DPC’s particularly keeping in view the extraordinarily acute stagnation of Central Excise Superintendents. Till date, only 1% of Central Excise executive officers are being able to get rare of the rarest IInd promotion at the fag end of career. It is, therefore, required to finish the process in a time bound manner to send the proposal of DPC to the UPSC as we are already behind by two panel years in r/o the DPC’s for the post of Asstt. Commissioner while two DPC’s have already been conducted for the post of Commissioner by our CBEC merely within a period of few months. 
5. The things are not being taken seriously at all. There should be some accountability of the concerned sections in this regard to expedite the issue as per the referred OM dt.14.12.2000 of DOPT. They should feel their responsibility in serious manner particularly keeping in view that our officers are very eagerly waiting for rare of the rarest IInd promotion at the fag end of the retirement after serving the CBEC for 35 to 40 years with the utmost sincerity. It is also well pertinent to mention that CBEC is able to achieve the revenue targets every year well ahead of the set goals only due to the dedicated & committed efforts of these poor officers. Some very specific efforts (instead of routine administrative efforts) are required to finish the work of DPC’s involving personal interest.


6. The consideration zone was sent to the concerned section of the CBEC on 29.04.14 by the concerned committee for vetting but the same like the providing of ACR dossiers etc. by the field formations are still pending due to which the DPC for the post of Asstt. Commissioner is being further delayed for endless period. No time limit is being adhered to any matter whether it is DPC in r/o promotions of group ‘B’ officers or reorganization of formations or allocation of staff or any other matter particularly relating to non-group ‘A’ (DR) categories.
7. In view of the above, it is very much requested that the proposal for DPC against the said posts may kindly be sent to the UPSC by calling the related records from the field formations and vetting the consideration zone at the earliest without further delay. A letter to the Chairman of UPSC may at least be written immediately as a specific measure to make due preparations and have a particular slot reserved for DPC specifically keeping in view the large number of posts of Asstt. Commissioner, if CBEC is still unable to submit the proposal on the single window system.
            Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,


(RAVI MALIK),
Secretary General.

1) The Secretary, Department of Revenue, North Block, New Delhi.
