HISSAR: Haryana Power Engineers Association held a protest demonstration at Hisar today against the Suspension of Superintending engineer Jind on a very trivial issue and blocking the promotional channel of XEn and SE to the next higher post.
Ravinder Ghagas General Secretary said that there is great resentment amongst engineers over the suspension of Hari Dutt SE Jind on a very trivial issue and demanded that the suspension order be revoked immediately.
Baljit Beniwal Sr. Vice President informed that the Board of Directors agenda regarding promotion to the post of Superintending Engineer to Chief Engineer has been withdrawn by the Administration wing. This will have a cascading effect on the further promotion to the post of SE and XEN. It may be mentioned that various Chief Engineers are holding dual charges which is affecting the - Implementation of restructuring in respect of SDO and XEN.
The restructuring in respect of SDO and XEN is not being implemented despite its approval by Haryana Bureau of Public Enterprises (HBPE) in 2021. Further, the Nigam's consumers have been exponentially increasing over the time as a number of sub-divisions are handling over 40000 Consumers.
The restructuring of other staff as . JEs, Account Officers and other subordinate staff as per approved new subdivisions and Divisions has already been implemented. As subordinate staff have been recruited/promoted against the new sub-divisions and Divisions which are yet to be made functional, there is loss of the financial resources of the Nigam.
Till date, only 2 no. posts against the 29-no. post of XENs approved by HBPE in 2021 have been filled. Thus, there is delay on the part of the Administration wing in implementation of restructuring of SDOs and XEN
