Despite state policy, Govt. under process for service extension of Addl. Chief Engineer CADA

Imphal, Dec. 26: Even as the state government under the leadership of Chief Minister N. Biren Singh has committed to discontinue the re-engagement of retired officers, many still continue to hold office till today.
In yet another development, process for service extension of the Additional Chief Engineer CADA (Command Area Development Agency) K. Lokeshwor Singh, who is due to retired on December 31, 2017 is being underway, a source said.
On getting the source, the All Manipur Command Area Development Employees Association (AMCADEA) had submitted a memorandum to the Principal Secretary of the CAD stating that the service extension of the said Additional Chief Engineer  is against the interest and fundamental rights of the junior officers and staffs of the department and also is against the state policy to discontinue service extension after superannuation.
