Induction Training duration to be reduced
THE Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions, Dr. Jitendra Singh in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha informed that a Committee was constituted under the Chairperson ship of Ms. Kiran Aggarwal to review the existing Induction training, probation period and syllabus of the training for IAS officers. And that the Committee has submitted its report and it is recommended that the duration of training shall be 75 weeks in place of existing 103 weeks, and some changes in the training syllabus.
If the recommendations of the Committee are accepted by the LalBahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration, State Governments & other stakeholders, perhaps the Ministry of Finance and NACEN can also think on similar lines.
