OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject: Combined Section Officers’/Stenographers’ (Gr.’B’/Gr.I) Limited Departmental Competitive Examination, 2012 and 2013.
The Combined Section Officers’/Stenographers’ (Gr.’B’/Gr.I) Limited Departmental Competitive Examination, 2012 and 2013 was conducted by the UPSC during 21-22 December, 2013. Results of the written part of the said examination are likely to be declared by the Commission in the last week of March, 2014.
2. To address the problem of large number of vacancies in the grade of Section Officer, it is necessary to bring out the results in a compressed time schedule and to promote and allocate officers to various cadre units in a time bound manner. In the past, one of the reasons for delay in finalizing the results of the examination was the delay in collection and collation of ACRs of the candidates, who qualify the written part of the exam.
3. It is, therefore, requested that the ACR Dossiers, complete in all respects, of all the candidates, who have appeared for the post of Section Officer of CSS and Private Secretary of CSSS in the Combined Limited Departmental Examination, 2012 \& 2013 be kept in readiness, so that the APARs/ACRs of the successful candidates can be sent to UPSC immediately once the results are declared. If there are any ACR/APAR, which are missing or below benchmark, appropriate action, if any, in respect of them may be completed in terms of DOP\&T OM No. 21011/1/2010-Estt.(A) dated $13^{\text {th }}$ April, 2010 and other relevant instructions on the subject, by $31^{\text {st }}$ March, 2014 positively.
4. A statement of availability status of ACRs/APARs for the period 20052013 (1.4.2005 to 31.3.2013), in respect of all the candidates who have appeared in the examination from the respective Cadre Units, may be sent to the undersigned at the earliest.
