New Delhi (22.12.2020): About 150 section officers of the Central Secretariat Service (CSS) cadre were on Monday promoted to the Grade-I level of Under Secretary on an ad-hoc basis for a period up to June 2021 or till the posts are filled on a regular basis.
The news triggered mixed feelings. While there was a bit of happiness among the promoted CSS officers, they were equally disappointed that their new grade may last only for six months. Most of them were apprehensive that the promotion of officers on an ad-hoc basis reflects the government's casual approach to administration.
