Jammu, Oct 20: The Agriculture Production Department (APD) has been failed to conduct Departmental Promotion Committee (DPC) of various cadre of employees for the last over three decades, creating total anarchy and officers' posting as well as their transfers has been done on pick and choose basis.
Sources informed Early Times that due to the failure of department to conduct the DPC, seniority lists have not been properly maintained and officers have been posted on primary posts without following any procedure and many juniors have been posted over seniors.
Moreover some of the influential officers have been enjoying transfers as per their whims and fancies, which depicted the state of affairs in the department. The department had issued an order for the elevation of District officers on temporary basis as Chief Agriculture officers vide Govt order no. 118 Agri of 2019 dated 19/6/2019 according to which two officers were posted as Deputy Director Central and Chief Agriculture officer Udhampur.
