Posted On: 25 JUL 2018 3:17PM by PIB Delhi
In
terms of instructions issued by Department of Personnel & Training
(DoPT) on transfer/posting of Government employees, all
Ministries/Departments of Government of India are required to have their
own guidelines for transfer/posting of their employees providing for
the following -
- minimum tenure;
- have a mechanism akin to Civil Services Board for recommending transfer; and
Respective Ministries/Departments are also required to place the transfer policy in public domain.
There
is no proposal to formulate single transfer policy for the Government
employees as guidelines for transfer/posting of employees depend on the
specific requirement of individual Ministries/ Departments. Moreover,
the State Public Services are under State List for which the State
Governments are competent to make rules and policies. Accordingly, there
is no proposal to constitute any commission for single transfer policy
for both Central & State employees.
This
information was provided by the Union Minister of State (Independent
Charge) Development of North-Eastern Region (DoNER), MoS PMO, Personnel,
Public Grievances & Pensions, Atomic Energy and Space, Dr Jitendra
Singh in written reply to a question in Lok Sabha today.
