NEW DELHI: The’specialized’ floor that allegedly eliminated senior IPS officials such as Rakesh Asthana and YC Modi in the race to the CBI manager’s article — minimal sixmonth tenure in support remaining to get a DG-level appointment — might not apply to appointments to get additional central authorities organisations using official sources hinting that the SC judgment in this regard merely applies to country DGP decisions. According to senior IPS officers who TOI talked to, ” the Supreme Court’s 2019 judgment that officers with a minimum six weeks made to superannuation be considered for appointment as DGPs regards solely to the state authorities. A senior administration functionary, that did not wish to be appointed, supported this opinion. But, TOI has learnt that the use of the rule to CBI manager’s article was hauled from an investigation of the SC judgment extending to DG-level articles in Central authorities organisations also. This may indicate that the exact same might not be used to additional DG-level posts in the Centre, which makes the CBI manager’s appointment as a one off instance. An senior IPS official told TOI that the CBI manager’s appointment was according to the procedure outlined at the Delhi Special Police Establishment Act, Consistent with this Supreme Court judgment in the Vineet Narain case. “These don’t put down any sixmonth-remainder-service limit,” explained the officer. According to another police officer, even if the identical rule must be implemented to high articles in other fundamental authorities and para-military organisations — RAW, Intelligence Bureau, BSF, CRPF, ITBP, CISF, NSG, respectively — several senior IPS officers might miss on eligibility. “What might make things worse is that occasionally top articles in fundamental authorities outfits aren’t filled up when they become empty,” the officer pointed out. In many of appointments in helm of fundamental authorities or para-military organisations, the most preferred officers had more than six months of analysis left. Both RAW and IB chiefs possess a set two-year tenure.
