During discussions on PNM/AIRF Item No.09/2022, the Staff Side raised concerns regarding some employees who, after being promoted from Level-1 to the clerical cadre, had availed three chances to qualify the typewriting test but were unable to do so due to the difficulties faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, they are now required to wait for fulfilment of the exemption criteria for increments, etc.

As per para 2(2)(c) of DoPT OM No. 14020/2/91-Estt.(D) dated 29.09.1992 (reiterated vide OM dated 22.04.2015) and adopted by the Board vide RBE No. 02/2017 dated 16.01.2017, it was advised vide RBE No. 09/2023 that two genuine attempts may be allowed in the normal course, and further attempts may be permitted for valid reasons with the personal approval of the General Manager.
