Unauthorized Deputation of 5 Medical Officers: J&K Health Department seeks explanation from AYUSH Director
Seven New Doctors Appointed to Malerkotla Civil Hospital
Srinagar: The Health and Medical Education Department has demanded an explanation from the Director of AYUSH for assigning five Medical Officers to New Delhi without obtaining prior approval from the Administrative Department.
These officers, listed in the questioned order, hold gazetted status, and as such, the Administrative Department serves as the cadre-controlling authority for this group. Consequently, all matters concerning gazetted officers are managed by the Administrative Department. The Health and Medical Education Department, Director Ayush has asked to explain his position within 5 days.
This unauthorized deputation has raised concerns regarding adherence to procedural protocols and the appropriate chain of command in handling cadre assignments. The Health and Medical Education Department is seeking to address these procedural lapses to ensure proper administrative practices are followed. The notice stated, “ You have deputed the Medical officers (Ayurveda, Unani and Homeopathy) to New Delhi to attend Modular Training Programme at Central Health Education Bureau New Delhi vide your order No 824-Dir-Ayush of 2024 dated 07.05.2024.”
