CONTROL THE UNCONTROLLED !!

To

The Principal Chief Commissioner,

Cadre Controlling Authority,

Mumbai.

Respected Sir,

            Sub: - Non- Implementation of Transfer & Posting Policy,

Irregularity in the IZT / ICT orders issued &

strengthening of CCA – reg.

            As per the revised Transfer & Posting Policy, IZT & ICT of Zone-I and Mumbai Service Tax Zone was issued on June-2015. However, it is mid-August now, and the officers under order of Transfer has not yet been relieved to join their new places of posting.  Officers those who have been relieved from Zone-II and posted to Service Tax are roaming since then as the AGT by the respective ST Commissionerates have not been issued. This is nothing but a sheer criminal wastage of manpower – on the one hand we are crying about the shortage of staff but on the other hand we are unable to utilize the services of the staff available with us. The same is the case with Central Excise Mumbai-IV Commissionerate.

2.         In AGT, there is no uniformity in rotation in Central Excise, Mumbai-I, Thane-I, Thane-II. Already CESA, Mumbai has represented about the irregularity in the orders issued by Thane-I, as well as the irregularity in the IZT from Zone-I to Zone-II. The officers under order of transfer from CESTAT / Commr.(Appeals) are not being relieved, showing utter disregard for the Establishment orders.

3.         Sir, your absence is terribly felt because the integrity, fairness and transparency with which the orders were earlier issued is now missing. There were modification/cancellation of orders issued which are not in the interest of the organization, which definitely dented your image only.

4.         The office of the Cadre Controlling Authority is lagging behind all the zonal offices in respect of having /maintaining a database of all the officers. It is high time that this matter is taken up in all seriousness by increasing the strength of the CCA as well as the infrastructure to meet the future expansion and any other exigencies that may arise.

5.         There are many requests which come from officers for being posted on loan basis or on deputation basis to various organizations. The transparency of this process can also be maintained by having a Committee which oversees the same, rather than the haphazard manner, which will definitely boost the morale of the officers, that they are not being neglected and their skill has been recognized.

6.         As far Central Excise Zone-II is concerned, there is no regular CC and there is no rotation after completion of 3 years in a Commissionerate, as well as the consequent AGT, as mentioned in the revised Transfer & Posting Policy.

7.         Your kind intervention is invited on all the above issues and it is expected to resolve the same at the earliest.

                                    Thanking you,

                                                                                                        Yours sincerely,

(A. K. SASMAL)

   General Secretary.
