Heartfelt thanks to Hon’ble MoS(PP) @DrJitendraSingh ji and Secretary @DoPTGoI for approving the long-pending ad-hoc promotions of ASOs 2014 batch.
These officers were on the verge of getting #MACP and your timely decision has brought much-needed relief. Your continued support has always inspired the CSS fraternity, will boost officer morale, and will surely enhance overall government efficiency.
We humbly request early clearance of the 4th CRC (pending for over 7 years) and grant of NFU to ensure long-overdue justice to the deserving #CSS cadre. @DoptSecretary #DoPT @PMOIndia
माननीय प्रधानमंत्री श्री @narendramodi जी के 106वें केंद्रीय सचिवालय सेवा कर्तव्य दिवस पर प्रेषित प्रेरणादायी शुभकामना संदेश के लिए केंद्रीय सचिवालय सेवा फोरम की ओर से हार्दिक धन्यवाद एवं आभार।
सीएसएस परिवार सदैव दक्षता और सुशासन के आदर्शों के प्रति समर्पित रहा है।
हम निवेदन करते हैं कि कैडर समीक्षा (Cadre Review) और NFU जैसी लम्बित सुधार प्रक्रियाओं को शीघ्र पूरा किया जाए —
ये सुधार प्रशासनिक तंत्र की रीढ़ CSS के मनोबल, समानता और दक्षता के लिए अत्यंत आवश्यक हैं। 🇮🇳

CSS Forum strongly condemns the harassment of Shri Deepak Khoda, Section Officer, Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, who recently attempted suicide by jumping from the 7th floor of Shastri Bhawan and urges @DrJitendraSingh Ji @Drvirendrakum13 Ji for a free & fair probe with immediate action against the erring officers. The case highlights the urgent need to curb workplace harassment & prioritise mental health. @PMOIndia@DoPTGoI@DoptSecretary@MSJEGOI #DoPT
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.
Press Release - https://t.co/kvuzmb86bo
• 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. 🙏

Sincere thanks to @ashwinijourno for spotlighting the long-pending Cadre Review & OGAS/NFU issue of Central Secretariat Service (CSS). Thousands of officers, especially ASOs & Under Secretaries, face deep stagnation.
We urge @PMOIndia@DoPTGoI@DrJitendraSingh ji for urgent intervention.

Central Secretariat Service officers' delegation meets cabinet secretary to demand timely promotions. @CSSforum_ @DoPTGoI @PMOIndia Read my story here: https://t.co/JskYLvBdhY https://t.co/NUMlLNmvRD
#DoPT : Delegation of Central Secretariat Officers comprising young Assistant Section Officers (ASOs) of the 2014 batch, currently posted across various Ministries and Departments of Govt of India called on at DoPT, North Block.
The delegation appreciated the proactive steps taken under PM Sh @NarendraModi's leadership to resolve their long-pending concerns. They acknowledged that the stagnation in promotions and service matters had been taken up seriously and resolved from time to time in recent years.
Backlog Promotions Cleared, Morale Boosted; Officers Expressed Gratitude for Reforms in the last decade.
Members of the delegation also discussed some of the pending promotions and thanked the Ministry for personal indulgence in resolving their issues.
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.
