FRESH POSTING OF ASSISTANT ENGINEERS IN KERALA PWD & LSGD(ENGINEERING WING)

The PWD is appointing Assistant Engineers to its supernumerary posts, even though the availability of permanent vacancies for such posts may not be known to them. In the posting order of Assistant Engineers in PWD vide order No.EB3.7054/03(VOL.IV) Dated 25.07.2012 of the Chief Engineer, PWD Administration, TVM, it is mentioned that “In the event of discharge from service for want of vacancies, they may either re-register their names in the concerned office of the PSC from where he/she is advised and get themselves re-appointed on further advice by the PSC or he/she may wait for his/her turns for re-appointment to the post in this department etc.”. The Chief Engineer, PWD may not be sure of incumbency details in such a case. Earlier in PWD it was mentioned that Excess posts of Assistant Engineers were available in PWD and they deployed some of its technical staff including Non Joining Duties(NJD) to LSGD. New technical staff were recruited to such posts based on the detailed estimates of PWD without any plan. At the same time LSGD is still holding posts of Assistant Engineers as vacant for deployment, even though a huge list of candidates for the Post of Assistant Engineers are available through PSC. LSGD may not be aware of such supernumerary posts and destroying chances of fresh postings in such a case compared to PWD. Promotion of Assistant Engineers to Assistant Executive Engineers in LSGD is in various proportions (Not in 1:3 ratio as mentioned in Special Rules of LSGD Engineering wing)and is subject to the final judgement of Honorable High Court of Kerala. Diploma staff in LSGD is trying for more promotion chance to the post of Assistant Executive Engineer compared to other Engineering departments in KERALA.In one side their may be excess technical staff in PWD, they are posting new technical staff in an Express highway speed at other side.Deployment in PWD may be to kick out of some of its staff who don’t have any hold and at the same time to post new ones for such vacancies.View the Order http://keralapwd.gov.in/keralapwd/eknowledge/Upload/documents/1311.pdf

  1. as per the new ENGINEERING cadre strength of lsgd there are 574 assistant engineers in each gramapanchayath and remining 202(404/2) assistant engineers in remaining gramapanchayath. Now only 377 posts are filled from psc ranklist ,remaining post will be filled from psc ranklist it self?or it will be a deployment from other departments?or it is already filled through existing staff in LSGD?

    • 60% of revised cadre strength is from the direct recruitment throgh PSC (50 %– B.Tech Degree holders +10% – Departmental Quota( obtained their B.Tech Degree while in Government service)) & 40% of revised cadre strength is filled throgh promotion from Diploma /Certificate holders. At present their is no deployment from other departments such as PWD/Irrigation.Their may be a chance that some vacancies they are holding for deployed persons, those who have not joined with LSGD .But it must be less than 40 in numbers.Rank holders in LSGD rank list can claim for such vacancies & requires pressure from rank holders for reporting such types of vacancies including supernumerary posts in LSGD. Kindly note that PWD has appointed a lot of AE’s (Around 50 No.s) on supernumerary basis.
