Uttarakhand government has formed a screening committee to identify unproductive employees aged above 50 years, for compulsory retirement in “public interest”.
This would include government employees who are incapable of doing official work, are ill, mostly absent from office, disregard the orders of their superior officers, and whose integrity is doubtful, the government said.
Additional Secretary and Director Vinod Kumar Suman in an order issued to all Additional Chief Secretaries, Principal Secretaries, Secretaries-in-Charge Secretaries,
Heads of Departments, has said that there is a system of compulsory retirement in public interest by giving three months’ notice or three months’ salary to the government servant aged 50 years and above without assigning any reason.
