10 Yrs. of Dedication, 10 Yrs. of Delay: 2014 CSS Batch ASOs Plead for Justice
• For nearly 300 Assistant Section Officers (ASOs) of the 2014 batch of Central Secretariat Service (CSS), another year has slipped by without the rightful promotion to Section Officer (SO), despite our eligibility since July 2023.
• On 18.06.2025, Hon’ble MoS @DrJitendraSingh announced that our promotions were approved, yet the file remains stalled in the corridors of @DoPTGoI and @FinMinIndia, leaving us in a state of prolonged uncertainty.
• On 07.07.2025, we met Hon’ble Law Minister @arjunrammeghwal, who graciously lent his support, urging the concerned authorities to expedite our case and end these unnecessary delays.
• On 16.07.2025, a delegation of 2014 Batch ASOs and Members of @CSSforum_ again met Hon'ble MoS @DrJitendraSingh to express gratitude for his steadfast commitment to resolving our issues. He listened with patience and issued CLEAR DIRECTIONS to @DoPTGoI to address our promotion delay.

• On 24.07.2025, Members of @CSSforum_ met the Cabinet Secretary and raised the issue of promotion delays of ASOs from 2014 batch, even after more than 10 years, leading to stagnation and low morale.
• Our cause has also been championed by the following esteemed MPs and MLAs, who have written DO letters to Hon'ble MoS @DrJitendraSingh, advocating for swift action:-
i. Smt. Geeta Shakya, MP ( @GeetaShakyaUP ).
ii. Shri Utkarsh Verma Madhur, MP ( @Utkarsh4LMP ).
iii. Dr. S. P. Singh Patel, MP.
iv. Shri Vinod Shankar Awasthi, MLA.
v. Shri Shashank Varma, MLA.
• Despite these efforts, we have received only assurances and repeated promises that our case is “under active consideration.” After a decade of unwavering service to the nation, we find ourselves at a crossroads, our faith tested by persistent delays.
• Hon’ble PM @narendramodi ji, we humbly seek your kind intervention to break this impasse. We also appeal to @PMOIndia and the Principal Secretaries to PM, Dr. P.K. Mishra and Dr. Shaktikant Das ( @DasShaktikanta ), so that our voices reach the highest echelons of governance.
• Our plea is simple: GRANT US THE PROMOTION we have patiently awaited for over ten years. 🙏

1st July 2025 has come and gone. For nearly 300 ASOs of the 2014 CSS batch, it marks yet another year without the rightful SO promotion. We’ve been eligible since July 2023. On 18.06.2025, Hon’ble MoS @DrJitendraSingh publicly confirmed the proposal had been approved. But since then, nothing has happened. The file now drags through the corridors of @DoPTGoI and @FinMinIndia. With great humility, we ask how much longer the wait will be for what has already been approved? We respectfully urge you not to overlook our needs and promptly provide what is rightfully owed to us.

We’re nearly 300 ASOs from the 2014 CSS batch—eligible for SO promotion since July 2023. It’s mid-2025 now, and @DoPTGoI hasn’t issued a single promotion order. Instead, they’re quietly processing MACP, as if stagnation is something we asked for.
On 18.06.2025, in a televised statement, @DrJitendraSingh clearly said the proposal for our promotion had been approved. Two words: then what?
Rules followed. Eligibility met. Minister assured. Yet, silence.
