3. Proposals are being received by

Departmental Promotion Committees concerned in regard to grading of some
persons considered A question has arisen whether for undertaking the review or
revision of the panels prepared and approved in consultation with the

the provisions of Rule 36 or 36-A of the General Rules straightaway or whether
before passing orders under the provisions of the· above rules the cases should
be placed before the Departmental Promotion Committees/Review Departmental Promotion
Committees. The Government have examined the issue and have decided that before
action is taken under General Rule 36 or 36-A, the-cases for review should be
placed before the Departmental Promotion Committee concerned and its
recommendations obtained. It is accordingly ordered that cases of review or revision
relating to grading etc., should be placed before the Departmental Promotion Committee/Review
Departmental Promotion Committee concerned in addition to cases mentioned in
para 13(a) of G.O.Ms.No. 187 General Administration (Ser.B) Department. Dt:25-4-1985.
4. The Government after due consideration
have also decided that while reviewing the panels, the Departmental Promotion
Committees shall adopt the uniform criteria in assessing merit that should not
be reassessed. The panel on review/revision by the inclusion of fresh names
should be restricted or limited to the no of persons whose names are included
in the original panel. If, in the process of review/revision it is decided to include
the names of certain number of persons in the panel, the names of an equal
number of persons included at the end of the original panel should be deleted
from the panel.
5. Accordingly, the orders issued in
G.O.Ms. No. 187, General Administration (Ser.B) Department. Dt: 25-4-1985,
shall stand modified to this extent.
