Respected Sir,

Your kind attention is invited to this Association’s letters of even number dated 15/7/2013, 19/11/2013, 6/1/2014, 17/4/2014, 16/5/2014, 21/6/2014 and 29/8/2014 addressed to Secretary (Posts) and copies endorsed to you regarding finalization of Recruitment Rules of PS Gr. B cadre and reduction the share of General Line officials from 6% to 3% in LDCE for the promotion to the cadre of PS Gr. B.

This Association would like to bring to your kind notice that as per the clause 3.1.5 of DoPT OM No. AB-14017/48/2010-Estt (RR) dated 31^st December 2010 “The Recruitment Rules should be reviewed once in 5 years with a view to effecting such changes as are necessary to bring them in conformity with the changed position, including additions to or reduction in the strength of the lower and higher level posts”.

Directorate vide memo No. A.34012/01/2015-DE dated 15^th January 2015 has circulated the calendar of Departmental Examinations to be held in 2015 in which PS Gr. B Examinations for the year 2013 and 2014 are scheduled on 21-6-2015 and 18-10-2015 respectively. It was already requested by this Association that LDCE for the promotion to the cadre of PS Gr. B for the year 2013 and 2014 may be conducted separately only after revision of Recruitment Rules of PS Gr. B cadre and reduction of share of General Line officials from 6% to 3%.

In view of the above, it is once again requested to conduct the above said LDCEs after reduction of share of General Line officials from 6% to 3% to avoid further litigations etc. in the matter, as examination for the year 2013 and 2014 have already been delayed by the Directorate for the reasons best known to them.

Yours sincerely,
