No suggestion was received from any member. However, the Association has submitted following agenda for discussion with CPMG in the four-monthly meeting on 26.04.2011. This is for information of members.

Agenda

1.      Request for avoiding delay in making ad hoc / officiating arrangement in vacant posts of IPs & ASPs

Brief:     A number of posts of IPs are kept vacant for years together with the arrangement that existing IPs are given extra burden of vacant posts for indefinite period.  This Association had taken up the matter in bi-monthly meeting with DPS(HQ) vide item No.1-5/2008. Reply was given to the Association during bi-monthly meeting on 26.06.2008 that instruction would be issued to Divisional Heads to make ad hoc arrangement in the vacant posts of IPs.  But this Association is not aware if any such instruction has ever been issued by Circle Office. To the contrary it is learnt from some Divisional Heads in HQ Region that Circle Office discouraged them to make ad hoc arrangement in vacant posts of IPs leaving the extra burden of work on the existing Inspectorial staff to continue for indefinite period. 

Now a number of posts of ASPs are vacant for months together.  They have not been filled up through ad hoc arrangement despite a number of requests from the Association to take timely action to fill up the vacant posts of ASPs. The Association has been observing that the Circle Administration’s attitude towards IP line official is indifferent and unhelpful which is not at all good for running the administration efficiently. The Association once again urges the Circle administration to look into this aspect to see that avoidable extra burden is not imposed on the existing IP line officials by allowing the vacancies in posts of ASPs to continue for months together.

2.    Non-issue of final gradation list of IPs and ASPs.

Brief:     After pursuing the case consistently for quite a long time, a draft gradation list of IPs and ASPs corrected upto 01.07.2008 was issued by Circle Office with a number of errors. Final gradation list incorporating the corrections was supposed to be issued within a reasonable time. But the final gradation list is yet to be issued even after a lapse of nearly three years since the draft gradation list was issued. The Association requests for issue of final gradation list with up-to-date changes.

3.     Non-consideration of cases omitted from granting financial upgradation under MACP Scheme.

Brief:     Representations submitted by a number of IP line officials omitted from grant of financial upgradation have not been considered yet. Cases of Sri Chaturbhuj Meher, PM, Sambalpur HO, Sri B B Negi, ASP(HQ) Bolangir and Sri Mukund Behera, ASP (Inv), RO, Sambalpur are some instances. The Association requests for immediate action to grant MACP in deserving cases.
