***

ORDER

Prior to 2001, there were two independent Executive posts in Panchayat Raj Department at Mandal level viz. Extension Officer (Panchayats) and Extension Officer (Rural Development) with the cadre strength of 380 and 1095 respectively. To have a close supervision and organic link between Gram Panchayat and Mandal Parishad, the functions of Extension Officer(Panchayats) were devolved to Extension Officer (Rural Development) and abolished the post of Extension Officer (Panchayats) and adjusted the existing Extension Officer (Panchayats) against the post of Extension Officer (Rural Development) duly protecting their scale of pay and salary drawn by them and also re-designated the post of Extension Officer (Rural Development) at Mandal level as Extension Officer (PR&RD) vide G.O.Ms.No.303, PR&RD (MDL.II) Dept. dt.4. 10.2001.

2. Initially, the post of Extension Officer (Rural Development) was Non Gazetted and Extension Officer (Panchayats) was Gazetted. In order to protect their existing scale of pay and Gazetted status, the then Extension Officer (Panchayats) were given special status and re- designated as Gazetted Extension Officer (PR&RD) Grade.I vide G.O.Ms.No.345, PR&RD(MDL.II) Dept. dt.21.11.2001. Subsequently, the post of Extension Officer (PR&0RD) was made Gazetted vide G.O.Ms.No.333, PR&RD (MDL.II) Dept. dt.1.11.2004 in order to achieve uniformity and assigned same scale of pay to that of Extension Officer (Panchayats) by the PRC vide G.O.Ms.No.507, Finance(PC.I) Dept. dt.10.06.2004. Thereafter, the A.P. Panchayat Raj Subordinate Service Rules were issued for the post of Extension Officer (PR&RD) vide G.O.Ms.No.394, PR&RD(MDL.II) Dept. dt.30.12.2004 duly making the Panchayat Secretary Category III (Village Development Officers Gr.I) and Senior Assistants of Zilla Praja Parishads/Mandal Praja Parishads as feeder categories.

3. Consequent on abolition of the post of Extension Officer (Panchayats), the feeder categories such as Executive Officer Gr.I, Senior Assistants of O/o Commissioner, PR&RE and District Panchayat Officer/Divisional Panchayat Officer units were deprived of their promotional opportunities.

4. Subsequent to introduction of Panchayat Secretary system in 2001, both the Executive Officers and Village Development Officers are brought into the fold of Panchayat Secretaries. Consequent on creation of separate Revenue functionary at Village level and on formation of Panchayat clusters, the post of Panchayat Secretary which was divided into seven categories as per G.O.Ms.No.295, PR&RD(MDL.II) Dept. dt.2.08.2002 has been regrouped into four grades and have fixed cadre strength of each grade vide G.O.Ms.No.81,PR&RD(MDL.II) Dept. dt.20.02.2010. According to the G.O.Ms.No.81,PR&RD(MDL.II) Dept. dt.20.02.2010 the post of Panchayat Secretary Gr.I is a merger of three categories such as Executive Officer Gr.I, Gr.II and Village Development Officer Gr.I.

5. Since there was neither integration of the three separate categories of erstwhile Executive Officer Gr.I & Gr.II and Village Development Officer Gr.I, nor was there any separate roaster system to accommodate them in the promotion post of E.O.(PR&RD), the Commissioner, PR&RE has submitted a proposal for preparation of inter-se-seniority of Panchayat Secretary Gr.I to consider for promotion to the post of Extension Officer (PR&RD) after due consultation with the stake holders who have agreed to apportion the posts of Extension Officer (PR&RD) earmarked for Panchayat Secretary Gr.I in the ratio of 55:45 between Executive Officer Gr.I & II on the one hand and VDO Grade.I on the other hand respectively. For more clarity the following illustration showing the cycle points earmarked for all the feeder categories to consider for promotion to the post of Extension Officer (PR&RD) may be seen.

ILLUSTRATION

aTotal number Extension Officer (PR&RD) posts considered.99 posts.
b.Number of posts reserved for direct recruitment @ 33.1/3% as per GO Ms.No. 253, PR&RD Deptt., dt. 29.8.2012 33 posts.
c.Number of posts reserved for Senior Assistants of ZPP/MPP @ 13% as per GO 253, dt. 29 .8.201213 posts.
d.Number of posts reserved for Senior Assistant in the Offices of DPO/DLPO @ 5% as per GO 253,dt.29.8 .2012 5 posts
e.Balance 48 posts
(i) Out of the balance posts meant for Pt.Secy. Gr.I Considering the formula of 55 : 45 for sharing between the three sub components, the number of posts falling in the quota of Panchayat Secretary Gr.I consisting of EO Gr.I/Gr.II @ 55% is equal to 26 posts.
(ii) Out of the balance posts, number of posts falling in the quoto of VDO Gr.I, sub component of Panchayat Secretary Gr.I equal to 22 posts.
f.Grand total99 posts

6. There has been no promotions to the post of Extension Officer (PR&RD) from the year 2007, because of inter-se-seniority dispute amongst various feeder categories. As a result 544 posts out of 1097 posts have fallen vacant constituting 50% of total posts. Extension Officer (PR&RD) is a crucial post at Mandal level not only to coordinate various Rural Development Programmes at Mandal level but also to function as extension support to Gram Panchayat. The administration of Gram Panchayats is severely impacted because of the vacancies. Further under the new scheme of Rajiv Gandhi Panchayat Sashaktikaran Abhiyan (RGPSA) Government of India is supporting Gram Panchayats to strengthen their administration and raise financial resources so as to meet the felt needs of the Rural people as per the mandate of the Constitution and A.P. Panchayat Raj Act, 1994. Considering all these aspects, Government after careful scrutiny of the proposal of the Commissioner, PR&RE, AP, Hyderabad have decided to amend AP Panchayat Raj and Rural Development Rules, 2001 by providing apportionment of promotion posts amongst the three sub components of the post of Panchayat Secretary Gr.I, i.e. Executive Officer Gr.I, Executive Officer Gr.II on the one hand and Village Development Officer Gr.I on other hand in the ratio of 55:45 respectively which is considered proportionate and meeting the genuine demand of all the three sub components. As per this apportionment the posts falling to the share of the sub component of Executive Officer Gr.I and Gr.II would be filled up by Executive Officer Gr.I & Executive Officer Gr . II in that order.

7. Accordingly, the appended Notification will be published in the Andhra Pradesh Gazette.
