DEBATE (1) Retirement Age
I welcome the step to lower retirement age of not only Govt. employees
but also of politicians. Govt. officer should also be permitted to go
on leave without pay with lien to their parent department to any private
organisation for career development for some limited period say 5 years.
AKS
DEBATE (2) Retirement Age
On taking decision of retirement age from 58 to 60 years, officials/staff
got stuck up with their promotion by 2 years and in many cases if the
retirement age is reduced they will suffer a loss of two years of service
and and four years in upgradation resuluting in loss of next higher
promotion if they retire at the age of 58. God bless them in their prospects.

Guidelines not followed
New government after lot of bickering brought the guidelines that whoever

not be allowed to work in present regime but it is being flouted almost
everywhere through other means by unofficially posting same persons

Destruction of records during the pendency of RTI application
An application was filed under the RTI Act seeking information
regarding appointment of Associate Professor. The Public Information
Officer (PIO) replied that no such information was available.
The CIC did not accept the claim of the respondents that the record
is weeded out without showing their Weeding out Policy, especially
when an RTI application is pending in respect of that record.
The CIC observed that if the record is weeded out during the pendency
of the RTI application, they will be held responsible. Referring
to the Public Records Act, 1993, the CIC asked the PIO to submit
a certified copy of the record retention schedule followed by
the public authority and the file noting with respect to the appellants
file which had been weeded out, along with the date of destruction.
Comments
Even if the records have outlived the time prescribed under weeding
out policy, the same cannot be destroyed if an application under
the RTI Act is pending. If any such records are destroyed, a demand
can be made for imposition of penalty under Section 20 of RTI
Act.
