Diwali Gift - 2162 officers in CBEC promoted as Assistant Commissioners - Great Job - Madam Chairperson
Legal Corner Icon — the image was hosted by the publisher and was not captured.CBEC Chairperson, Shanti Sundharam is to retire next Friday. Many of the officers in the Department are not exactly her fans. But on Diwali eve, she earned an exalted place in the hearts of over 2000 Group B officers and their families - for she promoted them as Assistant Commissioners and issued the orders just before the auspicious and sentimental Deepavali. The joy of some of these officers who spoke to me knew no bounds, though many of them had a deep regret that they had to wait so long to get the second promotion in their lives - for some of them after 37 years of stagnated service. But they were all unanimous that this could not have come through, but for the efforts of Madam Chairperson. Many of them requested me to cover this in DDT. (And mind you without your usual jibes, they warned.)
I did not know till I spoke to some of the promoted officers that a promotion meant so much in life!
Madam, you made the day for thousands of people and all of them will wish you a happy healthy retired life.
