Sub: Convening of regular DPC for
promotion to PS Group ‘B’
Respected Madam,
I intend to bring to your kind attention one of the
areas, where delay is occurring in non-convening of DPC for promotion of IP/ASP
to PS Group ‘B’.
2. In
this connection, attention is invited to the consolidated instructions on DPC,
circulated vide DOP&T’s OM No.22011/5/86-Estt.D dated 10.4.89, which,
interalia, provides that DPCs should be convened at regular intervals to draw
up panels which could be utilized for effecting promotions/against vacancies
occurring during the course of a given year. These instructions enjoin upon the
concerned authorities to initiate action to fill up the existing as well as
anticipated vacancies well before the expiry of the previous panel in their
respective reservation quota that is not covered in adhoc promotion. Moreover
adhoc promotions can not provide uniformity amongst Circles as the vacancy
positions differ from Circle to Circle.

According to the standing instructions, action for convening the DPCs should be
initiated before the commencement of the vacancy year and that DPCs should be
held against future vacancies so that justice is met to all and no category
feel isolated. Non convening of timely DPC is effecting next financial
up-gradation (MACP) to the officers.
4. It is
understood that 22 TO 23 vacancies out of 649 posts of PS Gr. B earmarked for
75% quota are lying vacant for the vacancy year 2011, so supplementary DPC for
the vacancy year 2011 may please be ordered to conduct before any promotion
through LDCE. Any overlapping under different quota can lead to legal
complication and cause creation of supernumerary post for the promotion of all
seniors being set rules and procedure.
5. In
view of the above, it is requested that suitable orders may kindly be passed to
put in place immediately for calling records and required planning is done to
convene the DPC, not only for the left out vacancies for the year 2011, but
also for the vacancy years 2012, so that panels are prepared in time allowing
sufficient time is given to the officers to join well before time and that the
extant orders on the subject are followed, both in letter and spirit.
With
regards,
