GENERAL SECRETARY'S LETTER TO ALL SUPERINTENDING ENGINEERS FOR RECRUITMENT OF DRAUGHTSMAN IN CIVIL WING

We have taken up the matter of recruitment to the post of Junior Draughtsman lying vacant since long with the Directorate and during the discussion it is understood that sanctioned strength of the Draughtsman are still available.  As per the recruitment rules of the Junior Draughtsman these posts should be filled up 90% by direct recruitment and 10% by promotion from the grade of Ferro Printer (now MTS) having 10 years experience by the concerned  Superintending Engineers of the Circle and hence the Directorate is nothing to do with the appointment.  The higher officers of the Directorate has advised us to take up the matter with Superintending Engineers for recruitment/promotion of Draughtsman

Since, the post of the Draughtsman have an important role in the affairs of the Division Offices and due to non-availability of the cadre the ministerial staff are compelled to look after their duties also which is purely technical in nature.  By attending the duties of the draughtsman by the ministerial staff is not at all fair and if any lapse happens from them may lead to a miserable situation in their service career and also lead to financial loss to them

It is, therefore, requested that you kind self may look into the matter and take necessary immediate action to fill up the vacancies of Draughtsman in your circle as per existing recruitment rules which will be helpful to the ministerial staff as well as to the Executive Engineers in their discharging duties.
