Increase retirement age of JS

Retirement age of Joint Secretary and above may be increased immediately, as senior officers are mostly highly educated who are able to join service late because of high education. For others it can be examined a little later.

Extend retirement age to 62

There is no harm in extending retirement age upto 62 years with some conditions : Persons should not be suffering from chronic diseases and ill-health; he/she should have maintained a stainless career throughout; should have hardworking traits; experience of the person in some particular works should be given due consideration. There should be a Screening Committee to assess the said qualities of officials while extending the retirement age. Subject to the above conditions, the raising of the retirement age is a good idea in government services.

Attitude of top officials caused failure

This failure has been because of the attitude of top bureaucrats who treat themselves above all the laws and most learned person in the country. They never think of others and successfully misled the Ministers who are not in habit of reading and understanding the issues.
