THE CENTRE HAS SENT A NEW PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE IPS AND IFS CADRE RULES, AND STATES HAVE UNTIL JANUARY 28 TO RESPOND.

By -


The central has sent a letter to all states requesting that cadre rules for the Indian Police Service (IPS) and Indian Forest Service (IFS) be changed as well, adding fuel to the fight over the change in Indian Administrative Service (IAS) cadre rules.

The union government has urged state governments to provide views and ideas on the change of service rules for IPS and IFS as well, according to a letter released by the Government of India on January 17 in continuation of its previous letter.

"In continuation of our department's letter dated 12 January 2022, we have provided our suggestion regarding revisions to the IAS (cadre) regulations 1954 for state governments to provide opinions." The subject has been further studied, and it is suggested to be incorporated in rule 6(1) of the IPS (Cadre) rules 1954 and the IFS (Cadre) rules 1966 in order to ensure uniformity in respect of the three, all India services similar arrangements," DoPT said in its letter.

"As a result, the state governments are invited to provide their comments on the proposal to make appropriate adjustments to rule 6(1) of the various cadre regulations applicable to the three AIS services by January 22." DoPT noted, "The draught change proposal under the IAS cadre regulations has already been distributed with the department, Letter of even numbered, dated 12 January 2022."

According to the letter, the Indian government has suggested the same revisions to the IAS cadre regulations as the federal government.

"Each State Government shall make available for deputation to the Central Government such number of eligible officers of various levels as the Central Deputation Reserve prescribed under the regulations referred to in Rule 4(1), adjusted proportionately by the number of officers available with the State Government concerned in relation to the total authorised strength of the state cadre at the time." The number of officers to be deputed to the Central Government will be determined by the Central Government in collaboration with the State Governments." According to the proposed amendment,

"In the event of any disagreement, the matter shall be decided by the Central Government, and the State Government or State Government involved shall give effect to the Central Government's judgement within a stipulated time," says the new entry.

"Provided also that in specific situations where the services of Carder officer(s) are required by a central government in the public interest, the central government may seek the service of such officers for posting under the central government or under a company association or body of individuals, whether incorporated or not, wholly or substantially owned or controlled by a central government and the st"Provided further that when the state government in question fails to implement the central government's decision within the prescribed time, the officer shall be dismissed from the Cadre as of the date stated by the central government."

After numerous opposition-ruled states objected to the centre's proposal to amend IAS deputation rules, the centre has handed states a new proposal that tightens the regulations even further and gives the centre greater say in bringing officials to Delhi on deputation.

"The central government has further exacerbated its attitude, proposing yet another amended draught, bringing the subject to further non-federal extremities," West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee wrote in a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. I believe the updated amendment plan is far more harsh than the original, and it goes directly against the principles of our great federal policy and the constitutional framework of India."

She also warned that it would cause "fear psychosis" among officers, affecting their performance. She also wrote to the Prime Minister, requesting that he not take any actions that would "destroy mutual accommodation between the Centre and the State."

This, according to the CM, will damage India's "steel frame." According to sources, Mamata Banerjee may discuss the issue with other non-BJP chief ministers and form a united front against the Centre.

Many other opposition-led CMs have also expressed public objection to the new regulations for IAS officers. The situation is expected to worsen as the government plans to include IPS and IFS officers in the investigation.

  Mumbai: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) announced on Wednesday that the Large Area Soft X-ray Spectrometer (CLASS), a payload on board the Chandrayaan-2 Orbiter, had discovered solar proton events (SPEs), which considerably increase radiation exposure to humans in space. Coronal mass ejections (CMEs), a tremendous torrent of ionised material and magnetic fields that reach Earth a few days later, causing geomagnetic storms and lighting up the polar sky with auroras, were also observed by the sensor on January 18. According to the ISRO, such multi-point measurements helps in the understanding of propagation and its impact on various planetary systems. Solar flares are dramatic explosions that occasionally spew out energetic particles (called Solar Proton Events or SPEs) into interplanetary space when the Sun is active. The majority of these are high-energy protons that have an influence on space systems and increase radiation exposure to astronauts. According ...
