Subject: Preparation of panel of Sr. PPS for Select List Year 2015 – calling for option – reg.
The undersigned is directed to say that this Department is in the final stage of preparation of panel of Sr. PPS for SLY 2015. In pursuance of the provisions of the Rotational Transfer Policy of CSSS issued vide this Department’s OM No. 25/28/2014-CS.II(A) dated 22.07.2015, on promotion, an officer shall be posted outside the Ministry/Department if he/she has served more than the prescribed tenure in the same Ministry/Department in any capacity.
- As per the revised rotational transfer policy, the following parameters will be taken into account:
(i) Ministries/Departments are categorized into Group ‘A’ and Group ‘B’ for posting/transfer.
(ii) The proposed RTP provides tenure of six years for PPS in a Ministry/Department. If an officer has served his/her tenure in List ‘A’, he/she will be mandatorily transferred to List ‘B’ and vice versa.
(iii) In Group ‘A’, certain Ministries/Departments qualify for a reduced tenure by one year.
(iv) An officer on transfer shall ordinarily be posted from Group ‘A’ → Group ‘B’ and Group ‘B’ → Group ‘A’, if they have completed the prescribed tenure. However, the officers presently posted in Group ‘A’ Ministries/Departments may opt for posting in the same Group. In that case on posting to Ministry/Department in Group ‘A’ the tenure will be counted afresh. However, this option will not be available to officers currently posted in Group ‘B’ to remain in Group ‘B’.
(v) An officer who is to be transferred out from the current Ministry/Department on completion of prescribed tenure may also be allowed option for posting in a Ministry/Department where he earlier served subject to the condition that there is a gap of period which is equal to tenure prescribed for the post.
(vi) Officers who are within two years of superannuation will be exempted from rotational transfers.
(vii) For calculation of residency in a Ministry/ Department, the cut-off date has been taken as 01.07.2015.
