New Delhi, January 30
Officers of the three premier services — IAS, IPS and IFoS — will spend a minimum of two years at each posting, say new rules formulated by the Centre to check political interference.
Any exception in the form of transfers or new appointments will only be made upon the recommendation of a civil services board.
States have been mandated to constitute a civil services board, which will be headed by the chief secretary, to consider questions of transfer of civil services officers.
For transfer and postings of Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officers, the board will have the senior-most additional chief secretary or chairman, Board of Revenue or Financial Commissioner, or an officer of equivalent rank and status as member, and principal secretary or secretary of the Department of Personnel in the state government, as member secretary.
For the posting and transfer of Indian Police Service (IPS) officers, the board will have two more members — principal secretary or secretary, Home, and the Director General of Police.
For Indian Forest Service (IFoS) officers, the board will have two additional members - principal secretary or secretary, Forest, and state’s Principal Chief Conservator of Forest.
“All appointments of cadre officers shall be made on the recommendation of the civil services board,” state the rules notified by the Ministry of Personnel on Tuesday.
A cadre officer appointed to any cadre post will hold the office for at least two years unless he is promoted, retires or is sent on deputation outside the state or for training exceeding two months, the rules say. — PTI

Transfers or new appointments can be made in exceptional cases only on the recommendation of a civil services board to be set up in each state
The competent authority may reject the recommendation of the board
The move follows SC directives to the Centre to ensure fixed tenure for bureaucrats
