The Haryana Cabinet, which met under the chairmanship of Chief Minister Sh. Nayab Singh Saini here today, approved key amendments to the Haryana Women and Child Development Department, Group ‘B’ Service Rules, 1997, to bring them in line with current administrative and recruitment requirements. The amendments include updates in post nomenclature, pay scales, educational qualifications, and the inclusion of newly created posts in the Departmental Service Rules.
The posts of Child Development Project Officer (Female) and Programme Officer (Female) have been officially renamed as Women and Child Development Project Officer (Female) and District Programme Officer (Female), respectively, as per earlier government notifications. Necessary amendments in the Department Rules have been made to reflect this.
In addition, Rule 14 of the Departmental Service Rules, 1997 has been updated to replace references to the Haryana Civil Services (Punishment and Appeal) Rules, 1987 with the revised 2016 rules.
The newly created posts, including those of District Programme Officer and Superintendent for CharkhiDadri district, and Manager, Panjiri Plant at Paploha (Pinjore), have also been incorporated into the Service Rules.
Further, the pay scales in the existing rules have been updated as per the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission.
To streamline recruitment, the provision for two separate educational qualifications with a 50% quota each for the post of Women and Child Development Project Officer (Female) has been removed, following objections by the Haryana Public Service Commission (HPSC).
Similarly, the requirement of being UGC-NET qualified for direct recruitment to the post of Deputy Director has been omitted, as past recruitment efforts failed to give eligible candidates. The move follows HPSC’s advice to revise the qualification norms. Apart from this, a provision mandating Hindi or Sanskrit as a subject at Matric or Higher Education level has also been incorporated for all posts.
