Govt has the "absolute right" to fire, if necessary in the public interest, employee who joined service before the age of 35 and has crossed the age of 50 or 55
New Delhi: Employees of
autonomous institutions like central universities and AIIMS will come under
government scanner now which will keep track of their performance.
Under Fundamental Rule
56(J), the government has the "absolute right" to retire, if
necessary in the public interest, any Group A and B employee who joined service
before the age of 35 and has crossed the age of 50.
Also, a Group C
government servant, who has crossed the age of 55, can be retired prematurely
under the rule.
The Department of
Personnel and Training (DoPT) today asked all administrative ministries to
ensure that autonomous institutions have adopted the provisions of FR 56 (j)
and that they are strictly followed.
In case where the
autonomous institutions have similar provisions in their rule books, the
administrative ministry may ensure that they are followed in letter and spirit,
it said.
In case there is no such
provisions exist in regulations governing their working, the administrative
ministry may ensure that the action is taken to put in place such rules as may
be necessary, the DoPT said in a communique to all central government
secretaries.
There number of
autonomous institutions and bodies under the administrative control of central
government that include Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) and All India Institute
of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), as per a government directory.
The Centre is conducting
review of its employees working in ministries. While addressing a conference
here in November last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said 45 senior
officers have either been removed or faced pension cuts for
"unsatisfactory performance and delivery in public service".
