Ex-servicemen career progression order upheld

The New Indian Express Villupuram

|

February 10, 2025

THE Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court criticised the state government and Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission (TNPSC) for its failure in amending legal provisions relating to the eligibility of ex-servicemen to apply for multiple government vacancies and to accept a higher post after joining a lower one.

- JEGADEESWARI PANDIAN @ Madurai

A bench of Justices M S Ramesh and A D Maria Clete made the observations while dismissing a batch of appeals filed by TNPSC against a single judge order permitting such ex-servicemen Group IV employees, selected in Group II A examinations in 2022, to participate in the subsequent stages of the selection process.

The judges observed that though the centre issued a memorandum clarifying its rules as early as 2014, the TNPSC and the state have shown complete inertia in amending the provisions to align with its clarifications.

THE COUGH SYRUP CATASTROPHE

HE recent spate of child deaths in India from contaminated cough syrups starkly exposes a grave systemic failure in the nation’s pharmaceutical regulation.
