RESTRICTED
4. The number of vacancies available for Bhutan Compensatory Area (BCA)/Myanmar
Compensatory Area (MCA) being restricted, it is near impossible to consider all personnel in
the BRO for each vacancy, as and when the same arises. It is, therefore, necessary to short list
personnel based on some criteria before final selection is carried out.
5. A minimum criteria is required to be applied for short listing of GREF personnel for
BCA/MCA postings. These may be diluted only in most exceptional cases with prior approval
of the DGBR, when adequate eligible personnel are not available. The minimum criteria to be
applied, is as follows :-
(a) HAA Tenure : Should have already done 22 months physical service in HAA
before 01 Jan 2009 or done 26 months physical service those who are posted to/serving
in HAA for the first tenure on 01 Jan 2009 or thereafter, i.e the date from which revised
HAA posting policy has come in force.
(b) (i) “Viable Tenure : Should have completed a minimum viable tenure of 6
months in the present unit to qualify for consideration”.
(ii) “Postings to BCA be planned quarterly for vacancies likely to occur. The
respective candidates found suitable for BCA may be delayed in the current unit
to avoid double move”.
(iii) In case the most eligible person for posting to BCA has not completed 6
months tenure in present unit, he will be given an option to go to BCA provided
he voluntarily foregoes all transfer incidentals including TA/DA/Transfer grant
and joining time. In case, however, he does not agree to forego such claims, he
will not be posted to BCA and will be considered on merit when the next
vacancy arises in BCA after he completes 06 months of viable tenure in the
present unit.
(c)
Minimum Service : Should have completed minimum 15 years of service.
(d) Age limit at the time of entry into BCA/MCA area :-
(i) GREF Personnel other than Pioneers : 55 years.
(ii) Pioneers : 50 years of age
