Sir,
I am serving army officer and is interested in the above exam which govt have held for state police officer,cpos and armed force officer with 35 yrs of age.
As a background the following are fact-
1. As per Army rule,a permanent commission officer can only be eligible if he supersedes.Selection Board take place in 15 yr of service.EVEN IF COMMISSIONING AGE is 20 yrs as in case of Ex NDA.offrs.they will be eligible only at age of 35 yrs.
2. In case of short service officer,he can apply for civil employment at the last 6 months of final yr of his agreement.Now SSC is for 10 yrs.Average age is 24 yrs when SSC offr get selected and 25 at time of commission.In this case also he is not able to write exam as he is turning 35 yrs.
IN BOTH CASES OPPORTUNITY IS BEING DENIED TO ARMY OFFICERS EVEN THEY ARE ALLOWED TO WRITE EXAM BY GOVT BECAUSE OF AGE.
SECOND issue ,
is pertaing to cut off bench mark of age which as per Ministry of home affair rule is 1 aug.
The CPO offrs age is considered on aug bench mark during initial recruitment before writing departmental exam for IPS.
Howeever army recruitment is held twice in yr with jan and july as benchmark.Person selected in Jan written and ssb subsequently join academy for training in month of september that year and person selected in july exam in month of april next year.
My querry is
1. Can a case be taken up for relaxation of age for subject exam to 36 yrs from 35 yrs keeping the service condition of army officers.
2. If not,atleast a case can be taken up to MHA to reduce benchmark from 01 aug of that year to 01 jan of year,so as to enable officers of army to write exam at least one.
At least they should not be denied the right of equal opportunity viz a viz officerrs of CPO as the part OF MHA and following aug bench mark and army lossing being on differnt rule and using jan as bench mark.
PLEASE SOLICIT ADVISE AND RIGHT COURSE OF ACTION.
