Finance Department (Codes Wing) have been publishing 'Annual Compendium' which contains all the Notifications, Government Orders, Clarificatory office memoranda/Circulars in relation to service and financial rules, issued in a particular calendar year i.e. from January to December each year. Four such Annual Compendia for the year 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1995 have so far been published and are available against cash payment at Government Press, Srinagar and Ranbir Government Press, Jammu. The present 'Annual Compendium' for 1996 is fifth publication of its kind.

2. In order to update the knowledge of relevant rules every Government officer ·is expected to equip his office with the volumes of Annual Compendia besides, other relevant codal books in the best interests of prompt and efficient disposal of the matters, which he is supposed to deal with in the discharge of his official business.

However, when the emp exonerated in Departmental enquiry against him/her and reinstated on duty, the Higher Standard Pay Scale shall be granted on th~ basis of eligibility on completion of 9/18/27 years incremental period of service as the case may be ;

(d) An employee otherwise eligible for grant of 'promotion In-Situ' under these Rules shall be deemed to have been exempted from passing the prescribed departmental/any other examination for purposes of grant of 'promotion In-Situ' only. However if the employee wants to get the actual functional promotion on higher post, he/she shall have to pass the prescribed departmental examination ;

( 7 )

(e) ·such period of leave without pay/other allowances as has not been _ _agreed by the Competent Authority to be counted for purposes of

annual increments shall not be taken into account for reckoning of the period of 9/18/27 years for Higher Standard Pay Scale as the case may be ;

SMbject :-Non adherence of prescribed S~tutory Rules/Guidelines ·for acquisition of Stores/Supplies/Services.

It hc.s come to the notice of the Finance Department that in a number f cases the Departmental Officers/competent authorities do not follow the

prescribed provisions of the statutory rules/guidelines while placing the orders for supply of Stores/Services with duly approved f11TDs.

The detailed rules governing the acquisition of the. Stores/Services are mainly . envisaged in Chapter VII and VIII of Jammo and Kashnltt Financial Code, Volume I while as the detailed procedures for making advance drawals from the treasuries in favour of the contractors viz. duly approved firms/suppliers are contained in Chapter XIV of the said code of rules.

It has been observed that despite clear provision of rules/Government Instructions and departmental officers do not follow the above rules in letter and spirit in so far as even agreements in the prescribed manner are also not executed to ensure strict adherence to the terms and conditions of supply of Stores/Services by concerned f11TDs/suppliers which is otherwise fraught with the risk of avoidable losses to the State exchequer besides saving the Government from unavoidable litigation.

Accordingly all the Additional Chief Secretaries/Commissionercretaries to Government and Heads of Departments are requested to ensure

trlct adherence to the coda! provisions in general and purchase and procurement of Stores/Supplies/Services with prompt execution of requisite

recments in this behalf in particular, by various Departmental offices to obviate avoidable litigation on the one hand and regular. supplies on the

thcr.

The Additional Chief Secretaries/Commissioners/Secretaries to ov mmcnt are also requested to issue suitable instructions to their

ubordinate offices for ensuring strict compliance with the provisions of the I vant rules in this behalf.

Engagement of Daily Rated Workers.

Circular.

It has come to the notice of the Government that a large number of daily rated workers have been appointed w.e.f. 1988-89 despite a bari imposed by the State Government on their engagement. Wages of such daily rated workers have been paid from the maintenance grant and iQ some other cases by debit to object head of expenditure other than "Wages" which consequently has prevented detection of such unauthorised appointments through the mechanism of regulating the release of funds under the object head "Wages". The departments could not make available updated and correct details of daily rated workers in position as on 1st April, 1989, number of daily rated workers brought on regular establishment by virtue of their having completed 7 years of service as per rules and the number still required · to be brought on regular establishment, separately under Plan and Non-plan. According to an analysis it is estimated that as many as 13,500 daily rated workers continue to be paid by the departments on Non-plan alone in the year 1995-96 for which a wage budget of Rs. 13.69 crores has been worked out in the Revised Estimates 1995-96. In fact, by first April, 1996 all the daily rated workers appointed in 1989 and in earlier -yearsare supposed to have completed 7 years of service and earned the entitlement of being brought on regular establishment. The continuance of wage budget of Rs. 12.68 crores even in the Budget Estimates 1996-97 confirm the apprehension that the number of daily rated workers appointed unauthorisedly after 1989 is sufficiently large. The existence of the wage budget either in the R.E. 1995-96 or the estimates for 1996-97 will not carry with it any approval of the State Government to cover unauthorised appointments which may be taken note of by_ the departments concerned.

2.- However, the matter has come up before the State Administrative Council on 6th February,. 1996 and it has approved the suggestion of the Finance Department that history sheets of service of each daily rated worker with code No. and a Photograph duly attested by the head of the concerned department be maintained as a substitute of service records for use at different levels. The format of the service sheet. of the daily rated workers is enclosed. A complete file of these history sheets is to be maintained not only in the office where the daily rated workers are working but also in the office of the next superior, the Direction office and the Administrative Sectt.

3. The Administrative Departments will kindly issue suitable instructions to all the field formations to :-

(a) maintain the history &heets of daily rated workers in the format · enclosed with this circular.

( 37 )

(b) report to the Finance Department the number of daily rated workers appointed year-wise w.e.f. 1st April, 1989 separately under .Plan and Non plan indicating . reference to the authority under which these appointments have been made.

(c) indicate the source ~f funding of these daily rated workers i.e. wages, maintenance grants or any other object head.

(d) the expenditure booked year-wise for these daily rated workers.

above information may kindly bC arranged to be ~upplied. so. as to the Finance Department by 30th April, 1996. The receipt of this circular

Subject : Clarification in respect of Rule 12 (g) of Jammu and Kashmir Civil Services (Higher Standard Pay Scale Scheme) Rules, 1996.

Rule 12 (g) of Jammu and Kashmir Civil Services (Higher Standard Pay Scale Scheme) Rules, 1996, promulgated vide SR0-14 dated January 15, 1996 provides as under :-

"The Service of isolated cadre (s) encadred in other cadre (s) without the request of the employee and the earlier service in isolated cad~e (s) which may be encadred hereafter or in any cadre where. pay scale 1s. eq~al but nomenclature is changed may be taken into account for sanctioning the Higher Standard Pay Scale."

2. Cases have been brought to the notice of the Finance Department where employees have been transferred and encadred from one departmental cadre to another in the past with same designations and pay scale, but the Departments are not in a position to ascertain and establish with reference to documents whether or not the subsequent encadrement has been on the request of the concerned employee (s) or otherwise in the public interest, so as to enable a decision being taken whether or not the service rendered by such empl,oyee~s) in the earlier cadre could be computed and counted for grant of In-Situ Promotion' under the aforementioned rules.

3. The matter has been examined in the Finance Department. Accordingly, it is clarified that where there is neither any documentary evidence to substantiate that such subsequent encadrement has been on the request of the concerned employees (s), nor there is any specific entry to this effect in the service records, viz., Service Book of the concerned employee (s), the subsequent encadrement shall Be deemed to have taken place in public interest and not on the request of the concerned employee(s) and the service rendered in the earlier cadre in the same capacity, notwithstanding on a different cadre, shall be computed and counted for grant of 'In-Situ Promotion' under the aforementioned provisions of the rel~vant rules.

GOVERNMENT OF JAMMU AND KASHMIR,. FINANCE DEPARTMENT.

O.M. No. N3 l (92)-690 Dated 9-7-1996.

Subject :-Jammu and Kashmir Civil Services (Revised pay) Rules, 1992.

Attention is invited to Finance Department O.M. No. A/37(92)-633 dated 14-9-1992, wherennder a doubt with regard to the import of expression "Fresh recruitments" "Fresh appointments" "New appointments" "Future appointments" appearing in J&K Civil Service (Revised Pay) Rules, 1992, issued vide Notification SRO-75 dated 30-3-1992, was clarified as under that :-

"Fresh recmitments" "Fresh appointments" "New appointments" "Future appo4itments" appearing in J&K Civil Service (Revised P~y) Rules, 1992 shall mean appointments as have been made or shall be made on or after 31-3- 1992".

2. Subsequently a doubt was expressed as to whether such of the Degree and Diploma Holders in the Engineering disciplines who were being paid stipend of Rs. 1620/- and Rs. 1300/- P.M. respectively, consequent upon their engagement as Stipendary Engineers prior to 30-3-1992 and were subsequently appointed on regular basis without any interruption may also be treated as "Fresh Recruits" for purpose of their regular appointment in Rs. 1400-2300

after 30-3-1992.

3. The case was examined in consultation with Law DepartmeRt and it was clarified vide their Department O.M. No. A/31 (94)-9 dated 2-2-1996

that

"The Degree and Diploma Holders in various disciplines of Engineering appointed prior to March 1992 as "Stipendaries" on monthly stipend o1' Rs. 1620/- and Rs. 1300/- P.M. respectively shall not be treated as "Fresh Recruits" " Fresh appointees" if such stipendaries have been appointed on regular basis on or after 31-3-1992 without interruption."

4. It clearly follows that appointment of such Stipendary Engineers on regular basis subsequent to 30-3-1992 shall be made in "'Rs. 1760-3200 and not in Rs. 1400-2300. Obviously, if any such Stipendary Engineer on his regular appointment on or after 31-3-1992 has been appointed/ placed in Rs. 1400-2300, he shall have to be placed in the pay scale of Rs. 1760-3200 from the date of is regular appointment as "Junior Engineers" and is accordingly entitled to arrears in the scale of Rs. 1760-3200 from the date

of his regular appointment.

( 79 )

5. It has come to the notice of Finance Department that Stipendary Engineers have been paid arrears on enhanced rate of stipend, as well, for the period of their engagement as Stipendary Engineers to the date of their regular appointment which is neither the contention nor intention of t.he clarification so issued. As such where the arrears have been paid at enhanced stipendary rates in absence of appropriate orders for the stipendary period from the date of initial engagement as Stipendary Engineers to the date of regular appointment of such Junior Engineers in the regular pay scale, it shall have to be recovered immediately in lump sum and stringent disciplinary action should be taken against such of the Drawing and Disbursing Officers who have allowed such arrears in utter disregard to the clear instructions issued vide O.M. No. A/31(94)-9 dated 2-2-1996 and without application of their judicious mind.

6. The undersigned is accordingly directed to request the Commissioner/ Secretaries of the concerned Administrative Departments to take stock of the position immediately through Financial Advisors/Chief Accounts Officers concerned and identify the Drawing and Disbursing Officers who have resorted to such irregular action and make available a list of such Drawing and Disbursing Officers to Finance Department, besides taking appropriate disciplinary action in the matter to put stop to recurrence of such irregular action and where the payment of arrears have been made by any Drawing and Disbursing Officer, the recovery of the said amount will be the personal responsibility of the concerned Drawing and Disbursing Officers. The pay of the said Drawing and Disbursing Officer should be kept withheld till recoveries are completely ensured by them.

7. This is in continuation to the Fax Message No. A/31(92) dated 26-6-1996 flashed to Chief Engineer Ravi Tawi Irrigation Complex, Jammu with copy endorsed to and duly acknowledged by Commissioner/Secretaries to Government, Public Works Department/Power Dev. Department, Housing and Urban Dev. Department and Agriculture Department.

8. The matter may be treated as urgent.

O.M. No. A/29(96)-1034 Dated 22-10-1996.

Subject J&K Civil Service (Higher Standard Pay Scales Scheme) Rules, 1996-Clarifications thereof.

Consequent upon the introduction of J&K (Higher Standard Pay Scale Scheme) Rules, 1996 vide SR0-14 dated January 15th, 1996 references from the" representatives of various Unions of Government employees/Departments have been received in Finance Department raising various points for clarifications. The same have been examined in the Finance Department. Accordingly, clarifications as detailed here below against each point are issued for guidance and references by the Department viz-a-viz implementation of the aforementioned scheme -

Point of doubt

(a) As per rule 7 of J&K C.S. (Revised Pay) Rules, 1992 any Govt. Servant could opt to retain the existing pay scale (prerevised scale prior to 1992) under the conditions laid down in the said rule. For example an orderly has opted to retain the pre-revised scale of Rs. 630-940, which he continues to be in, instead of the relevant revised pay scale of 750-940.

The point of doubt raised is whether such an employee is entitled to the benefit under J&K CS (Higher Standard Pay Scale Scheme) Rules, 1996 ? if so in which scale he can be placed ?

•.i Clarification

(a) It is clarified that such Govt. employee shall also be entitled to the benefits under the J&K CS (Higher Standard Pay Scale Scheme) Rules, 1996, subject to fulfilment of other eligibility criteria prescribed therein. However, in their-case "P~y Scale of the entry post applicable from 1-4-1987" as shown in col. 2 of Sch. l of the said rules shall include the pre-revised pay scale continued to be retained by such Govt. employee(s) on the date of issue of SR0-14 dated 16-1-1996. Accordingly, such employee (s) on being entitled to Higher Standard Pay Scale under the said rules, shall be elevated to the corresponding revised version ·of the pay scale in 1st, 2nd or 3rd Higher Standard Pay Scale wheiFeas the case may be as shown in Col. 3, 4 and 5 respectively in Schedule I of J&K C.S. (Higher Standard Pay Scale Scheme) Rules, 1996.

( 105 )

Point of doubt

(b) There have been certain category of posts , like Jr. Assistants, Cashiers, Library Assistants, Store Assistant, Drivers etc. in whose case prior to the introduction of J&K C. S. (Revised Pay) Rules, 1973 there have been two tier pay scales. Such as in the case of Drivers there where the scales i.e. 70-135 and 75-150. These pay scales have been clubbed into one pay scale as a result of revision of pay ordered in 1973.

In the above background cases may arise where by virtue of two tier system of a particular post an employee might have been placed in the higher selection scale of the same category of post without any change in his functions/duties prior to clubbing of such pay scales into one. Say Driver has been placed from a lower scale of Rs. 70-135 to Rs. 75-150 scale, which two scales have subsequently clubbed, consequent upon 1973 r(!vision, into one single scale of Rs. 200-320.

Question arises whether in such cases elevation from a lower scale i.e. Rs. 70-135 to Rs. 75-150 should be construed as a functional promotion for purposes of grant of In-Situ promotion.

(c) There are cases where a Government employee has been ordered to work in his own pay and grade on a higher post, of

Clarification

(b) In this connection it is clarified that since in such cases the merger has resulted in ·abolishing of one pay scale with introduction of a single tier pay system, as such in. such cases placement/elevation from a lower to a higher scale granted prior to clubbing of two scales should not be construed as a functional promotion for purposes of grant of In-Situ promotion.

(c) It is clarified that. in such cases it is the actual date of confirmation regularisation of such promotion as would determine

( 106 )

Point of doubt

course, with pr without charge allowance under the provisions of relevant rules and such arrangement continues beyond otherwise admissible limit of time under the relevant rules without confirmation/formal promotion ordered in the higher grade post.

A question arises as to whether in such circumstances such an elevation which, of course, is in own pay and grade with or without Charge Allowance can be treated as promotion for purposes of eligibility to the benefits of In-situ promotion.

(d) Doubts' have been expressed whether an employee, who has rendered (without having acquired one or more promotions) 17 years of service (say) as Jr. Asstt. before 1-1-199 5 and is entitled to get/elevated to "1st Higher Standard Pay Scale" on 1-1-1995 (because of having more than 9 years but less than 18 years of service) can be allowed "2nd Higher Standard Pay Scale" after putting in one year more service to make it 18 for entitlement to "2nd Higher Standard Pay Scale Scheme" or shall he have to wait for another 9 years from 1-1-1995 for becoming a entitled to "2nd Higher Standard Pay Scale Scheme" and so on.

Clarification

the eligibility or otherwise to lnSitu promotion.

( d) It is clarified that since grant of 1st, 2nd and 3rd Higher Standard Pay Scale(s) is to be granted with reference to 9 years, 18 years and 27 years regular satisfactory service respectively, as the case may be, with reference to the entry post without any functional promotion having been acquired during the period, as such the residual spell of such service after 9 years, 18 years has to be computed for calculating 18 years/27 years for purposes of next In-Situ promotion, as the case may be.

Accordingly a person who has completed 17 years satisfactory service as required under the rules ibid and is entitled/ elevated to 1st Higher Standard pay cale Scheme on 1-1-1995 hall be placed in the "2nd

Ii i her tandard Pay Scale"

( 107 )

Point of doubt

(e) Doubts have been expressed whether the terms "Senior/Selection Scale" used in rule 9(a) under the caption "Exercise of option" included promotional scale as well.

(f) Whether the officials who have retired after 1-1-1995 but before issue of SR0-14 dated 15- 1-1996 are covered under the provisions of the J&K Civil Service (HSPSS) Rules, 1996.

(g) Whether the upgradation of a post in respect of the pay scale without change of its nomenclature should be treated as a promotion for purposes of grant of In-Situ promotion under J&K Civil Service (HSPSS) Rules, 1996.

(h) When an official has got promotion In-Situ under J&K Civil Service (HSPSS) Rules, 1996 to a "Pay Scale" higher than the functional pay scale to which he is subsequently entitled to , whether on functional promotion subsequent to In-Situ Promotion he will be placed in the lower functional pay scale or he will continue to hold the higher pay scale which he has acquired by virtue of driving of benefit of In-Situ Promotion.

Clarification

after putting in one more year only of satisfactory service provided he does not get functional promotion during the said period.

(e) It is clarified that the said terms include promotional scale as well.

(f) The officials retired after 1-1-95 but before issue of SR0-14 dated 15-1-1996 are entitled to the benefit under the said rules, if otherwise qualifying for the same.

(g) Since in such cases the existing pay scale ceases to exist and the same is entirely replaced by a new scale of pay without any change in nomenclature of the post, as such upgradation should not be construed to be functional promotion for the purpose of grant of In-Situ promotion under the relevant provisions of the J&K (HSPSS) Rules, 1996.

(h) Though his functional promotion may be ordered in lower scale than he is placed in by virtue of In-Situ promotion, yet such an employee shall ~rry the higher pay scale in his personal capacit~1 •

which he might have acquired prior to his functional promotion on In-Situ basis under the provisions of J&K Civil Service (HSPc;;S) Rules, 1996 to this effect a specific stipulation should invariably be

made in the promotion order.
