ORDER:-

In the Government D.O.Letter first read above, temporary appointment to the posts of Steno-typists/Typists and Junior Assistants was banned with effect from 25.6.84. In the Government Letters second, third and fourth read above, the ban on temporary appointment to the above posts was lifted with effect from 7.3.86, 12.5.88 and 12.5.89 respectively. Subsequently a total ban for the recruitment of temporary employees through Employment Exchanges for a period of one year from 15.5.91, was imposed in the Government Order fifth read above. The above ban has been continued indefinitely in the Government Order sixth read above. Representations were received from such temporary employees appointed through employment Exchanges, since 1986, to regularise their services straightaway for to conduct a Special Qualifying Test. These temporary candidates have put in service ranging from a few days to a number of years. The Government considered that it would cause read hardship and also affect efficiency adversely if such a large number of persons were thrown out of employment, eventhough under the rules, they have to be replaced by regularly selected candidates through the Competitive Examinations of the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission.

The Government therefore examined the question in all its aspects and have come to the conclusion that an opportunity may be provided to the temporary employees in the common categories of Junior Assistants/Typists and Steno-Typists who were recruited through Employment Exchanges since 1986 and subsequently ousted from service and for those who were appointed on or before 15.5.91 and continue to be still in service irrespective of the length of service put in by them, for their appointment on a regular basis, subjecting them to Special Qualifying Examination to be conducted by the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission on the analogy of the decision taken during the years 1977 and 1981.

The Government accordingly pass the following orders:-

All the temporary candidates, who are successful in the Special Qualifying Examination by securing the minimum qualifying marks shall be absorbed regularly in the vacancies that would arise in the years 1994 and 1995. All the temporary persons who are successful in the Special Qualifying Examination will take rank below the candidates selected on the results of the regular competitive examinations including those held in 1993. If all the successful temporary candidates are not absorbed during 1994 and 1995, the estimates for fresh recruitment will be correspondingly curtailed for the purpose of absorbing the remaining candidates.

Regarding qualifications, all candidates who are educationally and technically qualified for the posts as per the special rules as on date should alone be allowed to appear for the special qualifying examination.
