New Delhi: All states have been asked by the Centre to nominate more women, Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe IAS and IPS officers for Central deputation to meet the shortfall.
Besides, they have been reminded that withdrawal of nomination at a later stage will debar officers from Central deputation for five years and also from foreign postings.
“Sufficient names of women and SC, ST and OBC officers may be sponsored so that adequate representation can be provided to them on posts under the Central Staffing Scheme (CSS),” a communication to all states and cadre controlling authorities by the Department of Personnel and Training said.
The Central Deputation Reserve (CDR) of each state cadre determines the extent to which officers could be sent on deputation to the Government of India.
