No.E(NG)I-76-CR/3, dated 05.03.1986

Sub: Confidential Reports on Group ‘C’ staff – Deletion of Column “Fitness for Promotion”.

Reference Ministry of Railway’s letter No.E(NG)II-75-CR/1, 06/10.01.1977 circulating therewith revised Confidential  Report Forms for non-gazetted staff.

The Staff Side of the National Council (JCM) had represented that the column relating to “Fitness for promotion” should not figure in the form of Confidential Report, as it is for the Departmental Promotion Committee to access the fitness of an officer for promotion, on the basis of various other qualitative aspects of performance and taking into account the remarks against all other columns of the Confidential Report. The matter was also discussed in the meeting of the Committee, of the National Council (JCM) held on 12^th May, 1985. As a result of the discussion, it has since been decided that the column relating to “Fitness for promotion” may be deleted in the form of Confidential Report for Group “C” staff. However, the column in Section-II of the Confidential Report Form for senior supervisors regarding “fitness for promotion to Group B” will be retained.
