Authorities are required to prepare annual panels taking up the first September
of the year as the qualifying date to determine the eligibility of a candidate
for such appointment. In pursuance of the above rule, many Appointing
Authorities might have already got the panels approved and action being taken
to fill up the vacancies on that basis. Since the ad-hoc rule came into force with
immediate effect which had over riding effect on all rules, it has been decided
by the Government that the annual panels for the current year i.e.1998-99
already approved be allowed to continue as per Rule 6 of the AP. State and Subordinate Service Rules, 1996, and if no panel is approved for 1998-99, the
Appointing Authorities shall follow the ad-hoc rule issued in the G.O. cited
even for the current panel year 1998-99 for preparing panel in terms of Rule 6of the A.P. State and Subordinate Service Rules, 1996.
