Dehradun: If state employees in Uttarakhand show reluctance for promotion, they will have to lose important postings as well. Not only this, if they are negligent in following these set rules, they will also have to face disciplinary action. Actually, the revised rules of the Personnel Department are going to be heavy on those who renounce promotion. Not only this, it will also reduce the in-charge system in the departments.
In Uttarakhand, the renunciation of promotion by state employees has become a big problem for the departments. Due to important posting or other reasons, employees renounce promotion even when it is due. Due to which not only these posts remain vacant but no other person is promoted to these posts. The special thing is that due to such a system, the in-charge system has to be implemented on many posts in the state. Which is not good for the common people and the state interest.
Understand the whole matter
The Uttarakhand State Services Promotion Abandonment Rules 2024 have been implemented in view of such problems. Actually, many employees in the state did not take promotion due to being in important postings or due to some other reason. Due to this, the posts on which promotion is to be done, that post remains vacant. Not only this, according to the previous system, the post on which the said officer has not taken promotion is reserved for this officer. Due to which neither that officer or employee takes promotion nor the junior officer or employee gets promotion to the said post. These situations not only disrupt the promotion process, but also keep the promotion post vacant. In such a situation, many times the departments have to give responsibility to the person in charge on the said promotion post.
Know what is the old rule
According to the previous rules, any state employee or officer could refuse to take promotion three times and the post was kept vacant till he got promotion.
Know what the new rules say
According to the new rules, now instead of the employee who does not take promotion, junior employees will be promoted to that post. While not taking promotion, the said officer and employee will give in writing in the affidavit that he will not claim promotion in future.
Future may be in trouble
The big thing is that the employee and officer who does not take promotion may also have to lose important posting. The appointing authority can also consider not giving important posting to such employee or officer in future.
In-charge handles responsibility
Actually, in the state, especially in big departments including education department, medical department and some other departments, problems were seen due to not taking promotion. In such departments, not only promotions were delayed but there was also the problem of vacant posts. On the other hand, in the posts which were filled, responsibility could be given only as in-charge.
After the new rules come, now there is every possibility of cases of promotion abandonment (renunciation) in the state decreasing, due to which all the problems caused by it can also be controlled.
