CSSS promotion orders 2021

2. The ad-hoc promotion orders had to be made to address the urgent requirement of various cadre units for manpower at various levels. However, it is seen that a number of officers have not joined. It may be appreciated that ad-hoc promotion is resorted to as a special dispensation for ensuring efficiency in Government’s functioning. The non-joining of officers is defeating the very purpose for which these ad-hoc promotions were made.

3. Hence, in partial modification of the Orders mentioned in para-1 above, all the Cadre Units are hereby directed to issue instructions to the promoted officers in all grades, who have not yet assumed the charge of the posts, to assume the charge immediately and not later than 15.01.2021, failing which the promotion orders with respect to non-joinee Officers, shall be liable to be withdrawn, apart from debarment from ad-hoc promotion or other suitable consequences. Further, the vacancies on this account shall be filled up by considering eligible officers next in order of seniority.

4. The cadre units are also requested to submit a report by 15.01.2021 to this Department at email: bhagirathjha.68[at]gov.in

5. All the concerned Ministries/ Departments are hereby requested to forward the list of officers who have not assumed the charge of the post on promotion by 15.01.2021, 03:30 P.M. on the email id mentioned above.

OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Subject: Online generation and recording of Annual Performance Assessment Report (APAR) on SPARROW for CSS & CSSS Group A officers - Extension of timelines for completion of APAR for the financial year 2017-18.

The undersigned is directed to refer to this Department's O.M. No.21 011/1/2005/Estt.(A) (Pt.II) dated 23rd July, 2009 vide which various date-lines for recording of APARs have been defined.

2. It has been experienced that while recording of APAR for the financial year 2017-18 on SPARROW web portal, some of the cadre controlling authorities of CSS & CSSS Group 'A' officers are facing practical difficulties in getting the self-appraisal of the officers under their cadre due to technical reasons and also pre-occupation of Nodal Officers & ORU with urgent time-bound assignments. It has therefore, been decided that the target dates prescribed in the above referred O.M., be further relaxed as a one time measure only for online generation, filling up of self-appraisal, reporting, reviewing and acceptance of APAR in respect of CSS & CSSS Group 'A' officers for the financial year 2017-18 through SPARROW web portal. The revised target dates for recording of APAR online for the financial year 2017-18 is annexed. This relaxation is subject to the condition that no remarks shall be recorded in the APAR for the year 2017-18 after 31 .12.2018. Where the reporting , reviewing and acceptance authority fail to record their comments within the time frame, the officer may be assessed on the basis of the overall record and self assessment for the financial year 2017-18, if he/she has submitted his/her self-assessment within the stipulated time.
