GO.Ms.No. 1224. Dated 20th December, 1972.
Read the following:
G.O.Ms.NO. 157, General Administration (Ser-A), dated 13th March, 1969.
ORDER:
In the G.O. cited, orders were issued on the recommendations of the Services Sub-Committee of the Secretaries to Government directing that where by reason of the stay orders issued by the High Court in Writ Petitions filed by employees working under the emergency provisions of the rules, it become necessary for want of vacancies to revert probationers and approved probationers who otherwise would have continued, they should be continued against supernumerary posts pending vacation of stay orders of the court and sanction for creation of such supernumerary posts should be obtained from the Government. The authorities concerned were also instructed to ensure that prompt and vigorous action was taken to get the stay orders vacated as expeditiously as possible.
2. It has been found by experience that considerable delay occurs in obtaining ·vacation of stay orders by the Departments concerned. Consequently, it becomes necessary to continue the supernumerary posts for long periods resulting in avoidable expenditure. The problem has been further examined by the Government in the light of experience of the working of G.O. No. 157, dated 13-3-1969. It is considered that, with a view to curtailing avoidable expenditure involved in the creation of supernumerary posts if a stay order of a court secured by an officer operated to the disadvantage of a senior, it would be for the affected senior to approach the court for appropriate orders in his favour. Accordingly, the Government direct that the orders issued in G.O. cited be cancelled with immediate effect.
