Bangalore, the 15th September, 2014
Dear friends
The cadre restructuring is truly on and as a first step the CBEC has directed the cadre controlling authorities to hold DPC for promotions from Inspector to Superintendent and DOS to AO and issue the orders of promotion by 30th of September 2014.
As regards the Karnataka zone the additional posts that are created consequent to CR in the grade of supdt is 414 and that of Inspectors is about 310. It is a fact that about 250 inspectors are likely to be promoted against these new posts.. As per the information available all officers who joined the grade of Inspector on or before 31.12.2005 will be eligible for promotion.
Consequently the strength of the Inspectors cadre is likely to come down to a large extent. This would place additional burden on the existing Inspectors. Most of the Inspectors presently posted to Bangalore Customs are likely to be promoted and new officers will have to be posted in their place. Further additional posts being created are more in Bangalore and therefore the officers who are presently posted out of Bangalore are likely to be transferred to the new posts. Audit Commissionerate is being created and a policy has to be formulated for posting of officers to the new formations.
In order to discuss the issue an appointment has been sought from the Chief Commissioner which has been granted on the 22nd of this month.Therefore all the members are requested to send their valuable suggestions /inputs regarding allocation /posting of officers to the new formations to the Association on email at aiceiakar@gmail.com and/or jayaseelan_c@yahoo.co.in or in the Facebaook Group - AICEIA KARNATAKA
Recently the Association had made a presentation before the 7th CPC. A copy of the memorandum submitted can be seen by clicking the following link. During the last week the Association had submitted its feedback on the first report of TARC. The submission can be accessed by clicking here. Further new office bearers were elected for Service Tax Commissionerate at Bangalore. Similar exercise wil be carried out in all the commissionerates shortly.
Comradely Yours,
Jayaseelan C
President
