Sub:   Regarding the settlement of transfer under Rule 38 of P & T Manual Volume IV: Request for the display of revised waiting list for RMS and MMS staff by rectifying the errors and issue transfer order under rule 38.

 

Ref: 1. Your No. STA/50-1/R-38/2018 dated 29-08-2019 and circulation of incoming list of Maharashtra Circle displayed on circle website vide no. STA/50-1/Rule 38/2020 dated 24-09-2020.

 

Respected sir,

 

This is in continuation of this union communication dated 07-10-2019, 19-02-2020, 24-6-2020 and reference to your memo cited above. First of all, this union is very much thankful to your honour for circulation of incoming waiting list under rule 38 of P&T Manual Volume IV by displaying on circle website on 24-09-2020. While going through the incoming list displayed by the circle office on web site, this union has received various queries related to the incoming list due to non-submission of updated or correct information by some divisions/regions as below.

 

a.    The name of officials is still incorporated in the incoming list even though they were already transferred as per order dated 31-12-2018, 29-08-2019 or by Mutual transfer.

 

b.   It is also brought to notice of this union that till the date some regions/divisions have not updated their incoming waiting list as per with applications done by the applicant hence some discrepancies were observed in an order issued under Rule 38. There is still the wrong date of appointment mentioned against officials & wrong date of application. (date of representation was mentioned as the date of application in respect of some officials)

 

c.    The waiting incoming list/transfer order in respect of MMS drivers is not displayed till the date even though there is an advertisement for recruitment against vacancy issued by the administration.

 

 

d.   Name of the same Official is reflected double in waiting list. One by full name and second as initial wise.

 

e.    Name of some senior officials is kept rank below the junior official even though he applied before June 2020.

 

f.     There are discrepancies in the reason for the transfer. i. e. Family, Health/Spouse/Marriage.

 

g.    There is a category of the applicant is also different than the original category.

 

It is learnt that there are very few vacancies were declared for the year 2020 (I.e. RMS B Division 5 vacancies, RMS L Division -2 vacancies and RMS F division 2 vacancies) whereas there are a large number of vacancies laying unfilled in each division. Non-holding of DPC in time for LSG, HSG-II and HSG -I cadre is one of the reasons for non-reflection of correct vacancy position. 

 

Your honour is well aware that all applicants including cases under spouse ground were waiting for transfer under rule 38 for more than 8 years. Now in this pandemic situation, all applicants want to live with their family or their spouse. It is, therefore, requested to please consider all cases of spouse ground as well as other cases as a special case one-time measure.

 

We urge your good self to look into the matter and give suitable instructions to the staff section of Circle office for rectifying all issues related to transfer under rule 38 incoming list at the earliest and issue transfer order in respect of RMS and MMS staff at the earliest.

 

I shall remain highly thankful to you for doing the needful.

 

With warm regards,

                                                             

                                                                                            Yours sincerely,
