Date: 15.11.2010

To,
The Commissioner,
Central Excise ,
Bhavnagar.

Sir,

Sub: Forwarding of willingness for deputation to other Custom Commissionerate, Kandla.

*****

With reference to the subject matter, the situation prevailing at Central Excise Commissionerate Bhavnagar has compelled this association to make this representation for your kind consideration so that injustice is not inflicted to the members/ officers of the Central Excise Commissionerate Bhavnagar.

It has been brought to the notice of the association that the circular calling willingness for deputation of Inspectors for posting to Custom Commissionerate, Kandla circulated by Additional Commissioner (P&V), Central Excise & Customs, Vadodara vide letter F.No.II/13-02/2010-Estt. dated 21.10.2010 is not being circulated amongst the officers of Central Excise Commissionerate Bhavnagar.

Sir, you are aware that the posting of Inspectors to other agencies such as DRI, SEZ, DGCEI, Custom Commissionerate, Kandla etc. are done on deputation basis. The primary objective of deputation postings is to expose the officers to different kind of work. The willingness for deputation to other organizations/ agencies and Custom Commissionerate, Kandla are being forwarded by other Commissionerates of Rajkot Sector and also other Commissionerate outside Rajkot Sector. If the willingness for deputation submitted by the officers of Central Excise Commissionerate Bhavnagar are not forwarded to the concerned organizations/agencies it would deprive the officers from the exposure of different kind of work. Hence, in the interest of justice and equality, it would be fair that the officers desirous for submitting willingness for deputation postings and work with Custom Commissionerate, Kandla may not be deprived from such prerogative.

In view of the above, you are humbly requested to ensure that the circulars calling for willingness for deputation to Custom Commissionerate, Kandla and other organizations/ agencies may be circulated among all officers and the willingness submitted by the officers are forwarded to the concerned organizations/ agencies in time.

Thanking you in anticipation,

Yours faithfully,

Letter to the Chief Commissioner, Ahmedabad Zone

F.No. AICEIA/RJT/1/2008

Date: 09.11.2010

To,
The Chief Commissioner,
Ahmedabad Zone,
Ahmedabad.

Sir,

Sub: Allowing resumption of Inspectors promoted to the Grade of Superintendent at their respective Commissionerate.

*****

With reference to the subject matter, the situation prevailing at Rajkot, Bhavnagar and Customs (Prev) Commissionerate Jamnagar has compelled this association to make this representation for your kind consideration.

Recently 21 inspectors + 2 inspectors have been promoted from the grade of Inspector to the grade of Superintendent Group B vide Establishment Order No. 40/2010 dated 29.10.2010 issued by the Chief Commissioner, Central Excise, Customs and Service Tax, Vadodara,.

Due to administrative exigencies for issuing detailed order of sector/Commissionerate, there is time gap of 25 to 30 days. However, normally the promoted officers are provided with the period of 15 days, within which they are supposed join/accept their promotion order. At the time of issuing promotion order, the officers are placed at the disposal of Ahmedabad Zonal office. During this intervening period, officers promoted from other than Commissionerates of Ahmedabad Sector, are placed in very peculiar situation. Since the Sector orders are not issued, sectoral cadre controlling authority at Rajkot is not in position to accept the resumption/acceptance report from the promoted officers. Therefore, for few days, till the sector orders are issued, the officers from Kandla, Rajkot, Bhavnagar and Customs (Prev) Commissionerate Jamnagar are compelled to join the zonal establishment office at Ahmedabad. This Association is of opinion and request your honour to issue suitable instructions to the sectoral cadre controlling authority at Rajkot, to accept resumption report of the officers promoted at their respective Commissionerate where they are presently posted, just as was system prevailing in the erstwhile period. This would spare the promoted officers from avoidable hardship they have to undergo at the time promotion, dampening the spirit of joy which has come to them after a long wait of almost 17/18 years. Joining at Ahmedabad would further entail the officer to get relieved from Kandla/ Bhavnagar/ Jamnagar/ Rajkot, join at Ahmedabad, again getting relieved from Ahmedabad, joining at Rajkot Sector, and again joining to the Commissionerate, where they are eventually posted.

Prayer: To issue suitable instructions to the Sectoral Cadre Controlling Authority, Rajkot so that they are able to accept resumption/acceptance report from the officers promoted from the grade of Inspector to the grade of Superintendent at their respective Commissionerate.

Thanking you in anticipation,

Yours faithfully,

(Dilip J. Pandya)

With due respect, this \association would like to submit following few lines for your kind consideration please.

Sir, recently promotion orders in the grade of Inspectors to Superintendent were issued by the Cadre Controlling Authority in Gujarat Zone. Some of the Inspectors working in Customs Commissionerate Jamnagar were also promoted to the grade of Superintendent and hence some vacancies have occurred due to above promotion orders. These vacancies mainly occurred in the sensitive postings.

This Association would like to request that if the administration is planning to fill these vacancies arose on account of promotion orders, than the order may please be issued as per the existing transfer / rotation policy. Officers who have been transferred to the sensitive charges / place vide last AGT order may not be disturbed with regard to change of station unless one is willing for the same, as these officers have already worked at these sensitive postings last four months and are well familiar and acquainted with the complicated custom procedure and work. Officers who have joined customs Commissionerate Jamnagar last year and are about to complete one year period of non-sensitive charge within short time may be considered for posting of sensitive post.

It is sincerely requested to consider the above request and issue the orders as per the transfer/ rotation policy.

Thanking you.
