JAMMU, Dec 23: School Education Non-Teaching Employees Forum under the aegis of All Department Clerical Staff Association has expressed resentment towards the authorities of School Education Department for eradicating the future of thousands of Non-Teaching officials especially Clerical Cadre of School Education Department by adopting delaying tactics in DPCs since last 5 years.

“The DPCs of Clerical Cadre is lying pending since years, by virtue of which hundreds of our colleagues attained the age of superannuation either as Junior Assistant or I/c Senior Assistants, despite rendering years of services in the Department and even though these I/c Senior Assistants, I/c Head Assistants were working against sanctioned posts which indicates that officials superannuated on I/c capacity had not only fulfilled all the requisite formalities for promotion to next grade but the posts of next grade was also lying vacant at the time of their placement in the next Grade,” they added.
The speakers said that there are more than 300 Junior Assistants who are waiting in queue for their chance of deputation to IMPA Jammu for Foundation Course which is otherwise mandatory for their promotion as Senior Assistant but the General Administrative Department is allotting 01 slot annually to DSEJ for these candidates, which is quite astonishing in itself.
The Association members appealed the Lieutenant Governor, Chief Secretary and Commissioner Secretary School Education Department to kindly intervene into the matter and direct concern Directorate to convene the DPC of Clerical Cadre within timeframe manner to resolve the long pending issue of the cadre.
