*****
It has brought to the notice of the Government that number of Departments are referring the cases for relaxation of minimum service in the lower categories owing to the exigencies of service and such proposals are being considered only for making ad hoc and temporary promotions under rule-10(a) of A.P. State and Subordinate Service Rules 1996 to meet the urgent needs of the Department concerned without resorting to any relaxation of rules. According to the rule-10(c) of the said rules, a person appointed under sub-rule (a) shall not be regarded as a probationer in such service, class or category or be entitled by reason only of such appointment to any preferential claim to future appointment to such service, class or category.
2. In the reference 2nd cited, it was clarified that a person appointed or promoted on ad hoc or temporary basis without fulfilling the required number of years of service in the feeder category by invoking rule-10(a) of A.P. State and Subordinate Service Rules 1996, may be allowed to count his service in higher category or class as the case may be to the extent of the period of duty performed by him in the latter service during which he would have held the post in the former service but for such appointment in the latter service and the probation of such individual so promoted or appointed may have to be commenced from the next date of such completion of the required period of service in the former service (in the lower feeder category).
3. Inspite of above clarification, proposals are being received to consider the cases of employees for promotion / appointment by transfer to the next higher category, who are not approved probationers in the feeder category and also without any justification on exigency of administration for invoking rule-10(a) of AP State & Subordinate Service Rules, 1996.
4. Government
therefore, hereby reiterate the clarification issued in reference 2nd
cited and further direct that the appointing authority shall justify the
exigency of administration while invoking the provisions of rule-10(a) of A.P.
State & Subordinate Service Rules, 1996 duly keeping in-view the rule-8 of
the AP State & Subordinate Service Rules, 1996 and it should be invoked in
respect of all categories of employees, who are approved probationers but not
for implementing rule of reservation only while considering promotion/by
appointment by transfer to higher category of posts. The appointing authorities
are directed to strictly adhere to the above rule position.
5. All the
Departments of Secretariat / Heads of Departments / District Collectors are
requested to issue instructions to all the appointing authorities under their
administrative control to follow the above instruction scrupulously.
All Departments of Secretariat.
