CHENNAI: Nearly 40 deputy, under secretaries and section officers, who were appointed on temporary basis and received 10 extensions, have finally been removed.
“The mandate of the recently constituted staff rationalisation committee is to evaluate the staff structure so as to identify the non-essential posts in various categories to reduce the expenditure,” a government dated September 5 said. It ended services of 40 officials from Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission (TNPSC).
These officials received a salary of Rs15,000 to Rs40,000 per month. The state government has directed TNPSC to engage daily wage persons to fill up the vacancies.
TNPSC — state government’s recruiting agency — in August 2013 appointed 190 officials on a temporary basis to carry out pre and post examination works relating to massive recruitment and counselling to posts of Group-IV services examination.
Though they were appointed only for three months, they were goven extension for another three months in December 2013, six months in March 2014 and in September 2014. Of the 190 staff, 115 were again given multiple extensions between March 2015 and August 2018.
Against this backdrop, TNPSC on July 31 had requested the state government to sanction further continuance of the said 115 posts for another year. State's Personnel and Administrative Reforms Department examined this proposal and accorded sanction for further continuance to only 75 posts.
“It is evident that the existing staff pattern has not been properly utilised,” S Swarna, secretary to the government, said in the order .
