EQUIVALENCE OF STATUS BETWEEN MILITARY RANKS AND CIVIL APPOINTMENTS ON THE BASIS OF WARRANT OF PRECEDENCE AS ON DATE

Irrespective of the pay equivalence, the President’s Secretariat vide notification No 33/Pres-79 dated 26 July 1979 (Amended upto Oct 2008) has laid down the status of military and civil appointments till Maj Gen / Jt Secy to Govt of India for official functions. The layout of the same is as follows :

Cabinet Secretary (Article 11) – Chiefs of Services (Article 12) – Army Commanders / Vice Chiefs / Secretaries to Govt of India / Chief Secretaries within their States (Article 23) – Lt Generals (Article 24) – Addl Secretaries to Govt of India / Chief Secretaries outside their States / DGs of CPOs / Director IB (Article 25) – Major Generals / Joint Secretaries to Govt of India (Article 26)

[1] Both STS and JAG Officers can be posted as DCs/DMs/Collectors. STS officers at times can also be posted as Addl DCs/DMs. The nomenclature of Secretarial Ranks for STS and JAG officers also varies from State to State.

[2] Ditto as Footnote 1 above

[3] Is equivalent in status to Maj Gen only if selected for empanelment as Jt Secy to Govt of India (Footnotes Continued on next page..)

[4] Is equivalent in status to Lt Gen only if selected for empanelment as Addl Secy to Govt of India

*Note on Appointments in the Indian Police Service : The Distt police in charge is known by variable nomenclature in different States. For example, irrespective of Grade, the said officer is known as SSP in Punjab & UP but SP in Haryana and DCP in Metros. A Selection Grade IPS officer is also sometimes referred to as SSP.  JAG Officer posted in Police HQrs is known as AIG.

*Officers of the rank of DIG, IGP, Addl DGP and DGP are only equated with their respective counterparts of the Army if selected to hold these appointments through Central empanelment under Govt of India. For example, there may be an officer holding the appointment of DGP in a State but when the same officer is posted at the centre in a CPO, he/she may be placed two steps lower as an IGP. An officer of the rank of DGP is placed as Special Secretary to Govt of India if posted on a Secretarial appointment as are other HAG+ officers. 

# Corps Commanders not placed as Army Commanders due to lack of residual service are upgraded to Apex Scale of Rs 80,000 (fixed)

Netting with some Old folks

I have not written for long as there was no news to give about the 41 folks. No one is contributing. I was a bit disappointed that in spite of my cajoling and requesting many regimental officers none came forward. Later  I felt I shouldn’t be disappointed and decided to take a proactive approach.All officers and ladies are welcome to write in the blog, if anyone is interested then he or she should just mail his or her E Mai ID to me and I will authorize that person to write in my bog, as simple as that.  bmsrawat@yahoo.com

I spoke to Bhatta sir and got news about him. After his posting to Bhadrak, Orissa in a NCC Bn, he is now posted at Fort William Calcutta. He is in ECHS. Seems he is getting ready for his retirement. He is retiring in Apr 2013.  Magna his daughter has completed her graduation and now keen to pursue her post graduation in Management. She is a bright girl as far as I know her. Col Bhatta,s Mob No is 09007823815

Next I spoke to Capt Vikram Rawat : He is in Nawi  Mumbai. He is fine with his wife. Both, I am told, are employed with State Bank Of India. Mrs Rawat is a doctor by profession.  His Mob No is 09867568252

Later I also got a call from Col Ravi Saigol. It was pleasant surprise to hear from him after long long time. He is settled in D’Dun and it seems enjoying his meditation sessions. Daughter Ruperna (Pontu) has gone to UK to pursue post graduation in Economics. She has done her graduation in Economics from LSR Delhi, though she was a science student in her school. I remember she was a good friend of Ruchika when they were in 2nd or 3rd class at Pathankot. Later Col Saigol took PMR and I moved to Delta force so even the kids could not meet.  Col Ravi Saigol’s Mob No is 09719077805

I am in touch with Sainna Narla . His elder son Maanas  is inclined to join Army. It is really good. We have quite a few second generation officers, though all are not in 41 but they are doing proud to their parents.
