It is learnt that the case filed by few Inspectors in
CAT, Chennai in connection with holding DPCs has been adjourned to 7th
of April 2015 with out any specific direction to Department. In this regard it
is requested that the DPC may be convened at the earliest before 31st
of March 2015 ie before end of the vacancy year 2014-15.
It is also learnt that the office bearers from All India
Central Excise Inspector Association have approached the Member (P&V) on
23.03.15 and brought to the notice about the delay in holding DPC at Chennai
CCA, and the Member (P&V) has given suitable directions to hold DPC
immediately.
If
the DPC is convened before end of the vacancy year there is a possibility of
regaining lost seniority wrt other zones. However if the DPC is not convened and
orders issued by 31st March 2015 we will be in disadvantageous
position and it may not be possible to seek re-fixation of seniority wrt other
zones within the same vacancy year.
Further it is also learnt that the reduction in
qualifying service of inspectors to three years for promotion to the grade of
Superintendent, by amending recruitment rules of Superintendent, is in advanced
stage and if that is implemented from next vacancy year then the whole of the
Tamilnadu and Puducherry cadre who have rendered more than 12 years of service
in the cadre of inspector would be in danger of being placed along with or
junior to other well placed zones like Delhi, Bhubaneswar, Bangalore, Ahmadabad
etc who have far less service in the cadre.
In order to avoid future litigations and to render
justice to the stagnated cadre it is again requested that the matter may be
taken on priority and convene DPC immediately.
Thanking you,
Yours
sincerely,

It is with deep
regret the Chennai Branch of the All India Central Excise Inspector’s
Association bring the following to the attention of Chief Commissioner of
Central Excise.
In spite of several representations both in writing and
in person, DPC has not been convened.
Due to delay in conducting DPC, the eligible Inspectors of Tamil Nadu
have lost
1.
Their
all India seniority in the Superintendents cadre.
2. Monetary benefit that would
have accrued to them on fixation of pay on promotion.
3. The entitlement to higher
grade pay of Rs.5400/- on completion of 4 years of service as Superintendent is
also getting postponed. As on this day
due to the delay, the Officers who are going to retire during the period from
October 2018 to March 2019 will retire without reaching the Grade pay of
Rs.5400/- thereby resulting in a perpetual loss of Rs.300/- in the Basic
Pension. Added with Dearness Relief the
said loss would be a huge amount after retirement. It is needless to say that in further
revision of pension by Pay Commissions, the loss would be huge.
In
other zones the DPC for the vacancies arising in the year 2015-16 are being
conducted as per the existing directions.
This situation leads to the possibility of the Inspectors of Tamil Nadu
becoming juniors to the Inspectors of other zones who will get their promotion
against the retirement vacancies of 2015-16.
The administration has effectively spoiled the career
progression of more than 300 Inspectors of Tamil Nadu all of whom have served
the Department for more than 20 years or above.
This association is wondering as to why the DPC is not being conducted
when there seems to be no obstacles for holding DPC. In other departments the
department will urge the courts to clear way for holding DPC and give
promotions but in our department it is other way and trying not to give
promotions. This shows the attitude of the department towards participatory and
inclusive governance. With this kind of
handling of the issues the department cannot expect for better performance from
the officers.
Yours
sincerely,
(KARUNAKAR
