Repatriation process set in motion

HYDERABAD: In a significant move towards implementation of GO 610, the State Government has invited applications from non-local employees, appointed in deviation of the Presidential Orders, for repatriation to their local cadre.

In a circular issued on Thursday, Chief Secretary J. Harinarayan asked Heads of Departments to invite applications from non-locals identified in their Units of Appointment in 10 days and said final orders would be issued before June 30.

The circular is a follow-up of the meeting the Chief Secretary had recently with representatives of recognised service associations.

It said that in case the requests were in excess of the number of non-locals to be repatriated, the Government would take seniority as criteria for their repatriation and the “seniormost will be ordered to be repatriated”. The repatriation orders would be issued as transfer orders and the employees would be eligible for TTA and their seniority would be governed by the Andhra Pradesh State and Subordinate Service Rules (Rule 33).

In the absence of a clear vacancy in the local cadre to which such non-local employees would be transferred, the administrative department had been asked to initially send such employees on deputation as per their consent or on other duty. At the same time, the process for creating supernumerary post in that local cadre should be initiated.

The departments have been asked to prepare consolidated proposals for creation of supernumerary posts, finalise them at the earliest and put them before the Cabinet in the next 15 days. The Government had also empowered the secretaries of the departments concerned to effect inter-local cadre transfers without referring them to the General Administration Department.

While the School Education Department was asked to take suitable advice from the Law Department to repatriate teachers, the Government relaxed the ban on transfers till June 30.
