77. KNOWLEDGE SPECTRUM - DISCIPLINE - FAQ
147. What is the rate of grading prescribed in APAR for consideration of promotion?
i) Any grade of 9 or 10 would be justified with respect to specific accomplishments. Grades of 1-2 or 9-10 are expected to be rare occurrences and hence the need to justify them. In awarding a numerical grade the reporting and reviewing authorities should rate the officer against a larger population of his/her peers that may be currently working under them.
(ii) APARs graded between 8 and 10 will be rated as 'outstanding' and will be given a score of 9 for the purpose of calculating average scores for empanelment/promotion.
(iii) APARs graded between 6 and short of 8 will be rated as 'very good' and will be given a score of 7.
(iv) APARs graded between 4 and 6 short of 6 will be rated as 'good' and given a score of 5.
(v) APARs graded below 4 will be given a score of zero.
148. Whether copies of the ACR/APAR can be supplied to retired officers?
(i) If a specific written request is received, the CR Dossier may be provided, after a period of two years.
(ii) Before weeding out, it should be certified that no request is pending.
(iii) Two years shall count from the date of issue of final orders in the disciplinary proceeding if any
(DOPT No. 21011/1/2005-Estt (A) Part III dated 2.4.2012)
149. On the basis of representation submitted for upgrading the grading in the ACR/APAR under OM dated 13.4.2010, can a review DPC be convened if the Competent Authority upgrades the grading to the benchmark level ?
The O.M. No. 21011/1/2010-Estt.A dated 13.4.2010 does not envisage any review DPC and it is concerned with future DPCs only to be held after the date of issue of the O.M.
150. A Govt. Servant due to physical or mental disability developed suddenly is being forced by the administration to proceed on voluntary retirement? Is it correct?
No. As per the DOPT order OM No. 13015/3/2002-Estt (L) dt. 19.1.2004 dt 19.01.2004, no establishment shall dispense with or reduce in rank an employee who acquired a disability during his service. In case if it is not possible to adjust him against any post, he may be kept in supernumery post until a suitable post is available or he attains the age of superannuation whichever is earlier. The order was issued based on the amended section 47 of the “Persons with Disability Act 1995”. Accordingly no one should ask such application for voluntary retirement from the disabled officials.
