INTRODUCTION

One of the important recommendations of Dr. P.K. Das's Committee was that

new direct recruitment to all the services/employments under the State Government

may be made with Fixed pay for first five years to control the non-planned

expenditure of the State Government. This matter has been taken into consideration

by the Committee of the Secretaries also. The decision for formation of this scheme

has been taken after the careful consideration in consultation with the General

Administration Department.

After implementation of the Filth Pay-Commission, a difference between the

prevailing wages of the Government employees and the wages of equivalent

employees of private sector has arisen. Even in private sectors also, new recruitments

in technical/managerial services are being made with fixed pay in first phase. The

State Government also has made the recruitments &educational cadres, in the field of

primary and secondary education on a large scale, with fixed pay and this recruitment

system has been implemented successfully. The direct recruitment which is not

inevitable has been controlled under the economy policy of the State Government.

With the purpose of avoiding adverse effect to the State administration, the

appointments are given on the contract basis to the retiring as per the standing orders

of General Administration Department, however, the expenditure is not reduced

considerably by such appointments, as well as such a situation is emerged that new

job seekers are disappointed. To avoid this situation, the general recruitment system to

appoint as assistant for five years with fixed pay will be useful in this regards and the

State Government shall have considerable relief from the burden of wages for first

live years and alter completing the duration of live years, the appointed candidate will

be appointed in regular pay-scale so they will work with sincerity and enthusiasm.
