I am a DRDS (Defense Research and Development service) cadre officer.The latest information I have got on our Assessment rule dates back to SRO 34 dated 8th march 1996, which states that"The Assessment Board for promotion upto the level of Scientist 'F' sahll submit its recommendation as "Fit for Promotion" or "Not Yet Fit" or fitness shall be deffered by one year. if the overall merit calibre of the candidate as judged by the Assesssment Board matches with the qualifying marks required for his residency period, the candidate should be recommended as Fit for Promotion" or "Not Yet Fit" or fitness shall be deffered by one year"Now I want to know 1) whether the phrase "fitness shall be deffered by one year" has been deleted or amended to date?2) Whether any candidate has been recommended under the head "fitness shall be deffered by one year" in the history of DRDS Assessment? (to the best of my knowledge nobody has been recommended under this head)3)What is the criteria for recommending a candidate under the head "fitness shall be deffered by one year"?4) As such what is my score in the assessment conducted in the year 2007?Can these information be sought under
RTI.As a senior Government officer, would such information seeking would call for punitive action under CCS conduct Rule?RegardsPrakash
