Promotion to HSG I from HSG II

Upon our reminding the Dept. of Posts that all HSG I posts filled up since last year are on adhoc basis owing to the relaxation permitted by the Dept.of Personnel & Trg. regarding service condition in HSG II posts for promotion to HSG I, our department again sent a proposal to extend the relaxation for another year. The file was returned by the DOPT asking the reason for the extension of relaxation. The Dept. of Posts will again resubmit the file with suitable reply soon. The Department is yet to finalise the HSG I recruitment Rules. The CHQ has also reminded the department in this regard.
