What is Govt getting by doing this?
Earlier there used to be one or two sections manned by one Section Officer. One under Secretary used to look after at least 2-3 Sections. Ds/Dir. used to look after minimum 5-6 Sections. After creating a large number of promotion avenues now you have same SO, US, DS/Dir. looking after only one section only and on the top of it the number of sections has been bifurcated to increase the number of officers. What is Govt getting by doing this, a bad name that they are not promoting DS/Dir. I think officers should also think responsibility as well mere promotion will not serve the purpose of Government.
