Petition contends stagnated promotion among cadres
The Delhi High Court has asked the Centre to treat as representation a petition by group of officers of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) raising the issue of acute stagnation suffered by Directly Appointed Assistant Commandants. A Bench of Justices Manmohan and Asha Menon said, “We direct that the respondent committee while carrying out the cadre review exercise would consider the present writ petition as a representation and take the same into account.” The petition was filed by the officers working in the rank of Assistant Commandant in Executive Cadre in the CRPF. They contended that that “as on date, they have put more than 10 years of service [2008 UPSC Notification Batch] and nine years of service [2009 UPSC notification batch] but have not earned any promotion till date”.More Related News
