It is ascertained from CHQ that the file relating to Upgradation of Grade pay of Inspector posts was returned by Accounts wing of the Directorate (JSFA) to Establishment wing of the Directorate nearly after three months with reported remark that the merger of IP cadre (which is of Non-Gazetted status) is not feasible with ASP cadre (which is of Gazetted status) and now the Department is toying with the idea of merging two cadres with withdrawal of Gazetted status accorded to ASPs.But no definite proposal on the issue has been communicated to our association sofar.
