Chief minister Yogi Adityanth has decided to get rid of incompetent officers. The chief minister has become quite serious about the performance of his government and aged incompetent officers are on the radar.
In this regard, the government has taken a tough decision in which the officers 'who have completed 50 years of age', if found incompetent in their work, will be given compulsory retirement. The chief secretary Rajiv Kumar has directed the heads of various departments to ‘screen such officers’ and prepare a list of such officers by July 31. The cut of date for determining 50 years has been kept on March 31, 2017.
The government took this decision because it was found that the work of many officers, who completed 50 years of age, is not satisfactory. Compulsory retirement was introduced as it was found that there is little room for improvement in the attitude of such officials.
In such cases, the employing authority can issue notice to any ‘temporary’ or ‘permanent’ officer who is found incompetent. For this, the concerned authority is not required to give any reason. The duration of the notice will be three months.
Meanwhile, the chief minister has strongly pulled up those officials who have been found adopting a careless attitude while dealing with complaints of general public. The chief minister said, "District and village level complaints should be decided there itself and should not come to Lucknow."
During three-hour video conference, the CM directly spoke to the complainants to take a first hand stock of the situation.
