Indianmandarins has reliably learnt that the strength of
Indian Economic Service will increase from existing 518 to 615 after fifth
cadre restructuring. This cadre restructuring will lead to an increase in the
Apex-level position from five to eight as proposal in this regard has been
accepted. The Indian Economic Service cadre is undergoing its ‘Fifth Cadre
Restructuring’. It may be underlined that this
service was constituted in 1961 with a cadre strength of 294. With the passage
of time, the requirements of the government of India increased for these
specialized officers and at the completion of five decades in 2011, it attained
the strength of 511. At present, IES has the strength of 518. Here lies the
genesis of a cadre strength which is likely to increase very soon.
The first cadre-restructuring for
the IES was done in 1991, after 30 years of its inception. Later the cadre was
reviewed in the year 2000 and 3rd and 4th cadre-restructuring
took place in 2005 and 2011 respectively. Now the fifth cadre restructuring is
underway.
