MACP ON PROMITIONAL HIERARCHY

Case No  21803/2014

Judgement on MACP on promotional hierarchy has been pronounced today. As per the judgement, the matter is relegated to Joint Committee for settlement of anomalies, being an expert body. A list of anomalies is given in the judgement for resolving by the Joint Committee. According to information, no time frame fixed by the court for resolving the issues.

Friends, getting MACP on promotional hierarchy is the genuine right of lakhs of affected Central Government Employees. Various high courts delivered judgement in our favour because it is a genuine case. And, both National Anomaly Committee and Hon’ble Supreme Court admitted it a case of anomaly. And yet a favorable decision has not come out at this stage.
