A recent decision by the Government of India has addressed a long-standing personnel allocation matter involving a Constable (T) from the Home Department. This case originated from a High Court judgment that directed the individual to submit a representation regarding their allocation. The employee sought a revision of their allocation from Uttarakhand back to Uttar Pradesh, citing personal reasons such as family residing in Lucknow, children studying in UP, and the need to care for a widow mother. These reasons were presented in compliance with the court’s directives.
An Advisory Committee was formed to consider the representation, carefully reviewing the grounds put forth. After due deliberation, the committee determined that the individual’s initial allocation to Uttarakhand was based on their own option. Consequently, the committee recommended rejecting the request for a change in allocation. The Government of India, upon reviewing the committee’s findings, accepted these recommendations. As a result, the Constable (T) will continue to be allocated to the successor State of Uttarakhand, and the concerned authorities have been instructed to inform the individual of this final decision.
