The PHE and I&FC Departments on Friday ordered confirmation of the promotion of 180 Junior Engineers, who have been since placed against higher posts.
The promotions were cleared at the Departmental Promotion Committee (DPC) meeting convened at JKPSC today.
Secretary PHE, I&FC, Farooq Ahmad Shah, Members for Public Service Commission and other concerned officers were present at the meeting.
Shah said even the Chief Engineers, Executive Engineers, Assistant Executive Engineers and Assistant Engineers of I&FC and PHE Departments have been working as Incharge for decades. “Some engineers are on the verge of retirement but they are still technically JEs and some are already retired from the department,” he said.
The Department has now started finalizing the seniority lists of engineers at all levels and conducts regular DPCs to regularize the promotions.
