The committees can recommend names for compulsory retirement

The Tamil Nadu government on Tuesday constituted two committees, on the advice of Governor’s Secretariat, to look into the charges against Raj Bhavan staff and take up cases under the Tamil Nadu Fundamental Rules for compulsory retirement.

One committee with Secretary to the Governor as its chairperson and Public Secretary (or any officer nominated by him) and Deputy Secretary to Governor and Comptroller as its members would review the cases of Group A and B officials for compulsory retirement.

Another committee with Deputy Secretary to the Governor (Universities) as chairperson and Deputy Secretary to Governor and Comptroller and Under Secretary to Governor (Tours) would review the cases of Group C and D employees in the Raj Bhavan.

Rule 56 (2) Tamil Nadu Fundamental Rules and the State government’s guidelines deal with compulsory retirement of government staff and empower the State government to form panels to review cases of government servants (Group A,B,C & D) who lack integrity, takebribe habitually and those who are not in good condition physically and mentally.

Repeated complaints of corruption and the lack of potential to perform efficiently in the next three to five years are among the grounds for retirement.
