PROCEEDINGS :-

         

          In the Board’s Proceedings first cited, orders have been issued

allowing common seniority to the posts of Clerks, Typist and Steno –

Typists of Systems/ Circles.

          2) In the Board’s Proceedings second cited, the employees

were Allowed to move to Selection Grade on completion of 10 yeare of

service in the ordinary Grade. With reference to the clarifications

issued subsequently, the service rendered in the former System/

Circle /office in the same time scale of pay shall also be taken into

account for reckoning the period of service for movement to

Selection Grade provided such service is taken into account for the

purpose of fixation of seniority for promotion in the present System/

Circle/ office. In the reference fourth cited, among other things, it has

been ordered to reduce the period of service reckoning for movement

to Selection Grade as 9 years instead of 10 years with effect from

8-7-1988. In the reference fifth cited, orders have been issued

allowing movement to Special Grade to the employees on completion

of 20 years of service in one and the same post and stagnated

without promotion subject to the usual conditions applied to the

movement to the Selection Grade.

--2—

3) Subsequently , it was clarified that the transfer from one

Circle to another Circle made on administrative grounds alone are

entitled for seniority in the post of Junior Assistant/Typist/Steno-Typist

and the seniority in the above posts on system seniority.

          4) It has been represented that Junior Assistant / Assessor,

Typist and Steno – Typist are State-wide cadre and they are being

given promotion by taking into account the State-wide seniority and

hence the service rendered in former System(s)/Cicle(s) may be

counted along with the service in the present System/Circle, while

reckoning the period for the purpose of movement to Selection

Grade/Special Grade. The points raised have been examined in

detail.

          5) After careful consideration, it is hereby ordered that for the

purpose of movement to Selection Grade/ Special Grade, the service

rendered in former System (s) / Circle (s) shall also be taken into

account  along with the service in the present System / Circle for the

Junior Assistant / Assessor / Typist / Steno-Typist, since they are

promoted to the next higher post taking into account the State

Seniority. This will not be made applicable to the employees

transferred to the offices like, Secretariat Branch, Administrative

Branch and Audit Branch, etc., where separate seniority is maintained.

6)The Chief Internal Audit Officer is directed to withdraw

the Audit objections made for recovery of the excess pay and allowances

as against the employees who have moved to Selection Grade / Special

Grade duly account their service rendered in their former

Circles.

          7) The receipt of the Board’s Proceedings shall be

acknowledged.
