GANGTOK, 13 Feb: The State Government has sanctioned the creation of 4,002 posts in the various government departments exclusively for the appointment of temporary employees belonging to Group C and D category who have completed 15 years and more in such service as on 31 January 2013. Following this, the Department of Personnel [DoP] issued a notification on 12 February for the creation of the posts in the different government departments in which the employees will be regularized. 

Addressing a press conference today, the All Sikkim Government Muster Roll & Work Charged Employees Association [ASGMRWCEA] president, Pema Doma thanked the Chief Minister for fulfilling his commitment through this notification. She also thanked the Commissioner-cum-Secretary, officials and staffs of DoP.

She mentioned that the regularization of service of 4,002 employees in 26 government departments is a major step taken by the state government.

1,713 posts in the list are in the Energy & Power Department which is the highest among all departments.  

“The association had full faith that the CM would fulfill his promise. It is now the responsibility of all these employees to work sincerely and responsibly in their respective posts to serve the people of Sikkim,” said Ms Doma.

She informed that the process for regularization of temporary employees who have completed 10 years and more is also now underway. On the same, she urged these employees to be patient and not get misled by rumours.

Ms Doma also said that the association is trying to float a proposal whereby employees will have to obtain an NOC from the association before their services were regualrized by the various departments. She therefore urged the employees in the list to take the NOC from the Association.
