Central Govt asked the Departments to move compulsory Retirement proposals in respect of Employees who are inefficient and doubtful Integrity

To tone up the bureaucratic apparatus and weed out officials of doubtful integrity and efficiency, the government has asked all its departments to identify such public servants and move proposals for their premature retirement. 

The move by the Department of Personnel and Training follows a meeting chaired byCabinet Secretary P K Sinha recently on mechanisms to be adopted to ensure probity among government servants. 

PROS AND CONS OF INDIA POST PAYMENT BANK LICENSE.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) recently gave a licence to India Post to function as a payments bank. Does it change anything for the people? Post offices in India have already been working as payments banks. Individuals open accounts, deposit and withdraw money by cash or cheques and receive payments through them. All these transactions are meticulously recorded manually in their passbook. Post offices do not provide any loans or carry out any credit transaction. This has been in operation for more than a century and much before the RBI came into existence. So, what would change after the RBI’s licence?

The Department of Post (DoP) had earlier applied to RBI for a banking licence for its fully-owned subsidiary, India Post. The DoP’s assets and liability position, as revealed by its balance sheet, was far from satisfactory for RBI’s comfort to allow the grant of a banking licence to the parent organization. Its annual deficit kept increasing from Rs.5,339 crore in 2013-14 to Rs.6,378 crore in 2014-15 to Rs.6,665 crore in the budget of 2015-16. As a result, the banking licence had to be granted to a separate entity, India Post, with distinct assets and liabilities of its own. The RBI’s licence for payments bank to India Post should, therefore, separate the banking business from various other services provided by DoP, which may or may not run on a commercial basis. A commercial focus on the banking business is desirable for viability and efficiency.

Modi government announces OROP: Six things to know about 'One Rank One Pension'

By ECONOMICTIMES.COM | 5 Sep, 2015, 06.40PM IST

NEW DELHI: Ending a four decade long wait of veterans, Prime Minister Narendra  Modi-led NDA government on  Saturday announced the 'One Rank One Pension' scheme for ex-servicemen. 

"In simple terms, OROP implies that  uniform pension be paid to the Armed  Forces personnel retiring in the same rank with the same length of service,  regardless of their date of retirement. Future enhancements in the rates of  pension would be automatically passed on to the past pensioners. This implies bridging the gap between the rate of pension of current and past  pensioners at periodic intervals," said Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar while making the announcement. 

"Under this definition, it has been decided that the gap between rate of pension  of current pensioners and past pensioners will be bridged every 5 years," he  said. We take a look at six salient features of the OROP scheme, as announced by  Parrikar:
