Subject: Permitting officials to write PS Group B Limited Departmental Competitive Examination held on 29.11.2020 — Regarding.
I am directed to refer to this office letter of even number dated 28.05.2020 and Karnataka Circle letter no. R&E/1-86/2017-18, 2018 & 2019 dated 04.02.2020 on the aforesaid subject.
2. In this regard, it is stated that the matter has been re-visited, wherein it is observed that:
2.1. Shri S M Ranganath was declared qualified for promotion as Inspector of Posts through IP Exam - 2011 in compliance of order of Hon'ble CAT Bangalore. Subsequently, he was given all consequential benefits without back wages and promoted to IP Cadre w.e.f. 15.05.2012 (notionally) and w.e.f. 01.04.2019 (actually).
2.2. Department considered ‘qualifying service’ as part of consequential benefits awarded by Hon’ble CAT, Bangalore and promoted Shri Ranganath to ASP cadre on 02.12.2019. Once, the officer was given benefits of qualifying service for IP cadre under ‘consequential benefits’, the same shall be counted for qualifying service for higher promotions. Therefore, Shri Ranganath was eligible for PS Gr B LDCE under IP line quota of 19% as his seniority was already decided in IP line as per para 2.1 above.
3. In view of above, it has been decided that Shri Ranganath and other similarly placed candidates are eligible to appear in the said PS Gr.‘B’ LDCE against 19% quota earmarked for IP line candidates.
4. This issues with the approval of Director General Postal Services being the appointing authority of PS Gr. B cadre.
