What is deputation, and why is it preferred for an isolated post?
Deputation is a recruitment method where outside officers from Central or State/UT Governments are appointed to a Central Government post for a limited period, after which they must return to their parent cadres. It is highly desirable for isolated posts because direct recruitment would leave the incumbent with no avenues for promotion or career progression.

What is a short-term contract, and how does it differ from regular deputation?
A short-term contract is technically a form of deputation, but it applies specifically to officers drawn from non-Government bodies. This allows individuals from universities, research institutions, and public sector undertakings to be appointed to teaching, research, scientific, and technical posts within the Central Government.
