Posting of CAO

To

The Chief Commissioner

Customs, Kolkata.

Sir,

Subject- Posting of Chief Accounts Officer at Customs Preventive   

                 Commissionerate, West Bengal, protest- regarding.

          This has the reference with OFFICE ORDER NO 14/2012–CCO Dated 3.9.12  Communicated under F.No II(13)03/CCC/Kol/12/9139 in respect of posting of CAO in Customs formation.

          This Association is surprised to note that than one officer belonging to a separate zone i.e.  Custom zone Kolkata has been posted at customs preventive comm’te.  As you will be aware that Board is pursuing with the policy of manning the Customs preventive formations with officers from C.Ex & Service Tax over the years and there has been no change is such policy. Therefore, posting of one officer belonging   to customs formation at CCP has to be construed as violative of Boards policy,.  Moreover, the post of CAO in customs is distinct and different to that in C.Ex.  The process of giving promotion to such two posts is also separate.

          In view of above, you are requested to withdraw the officer posted as CAO, CCP vide the order referred to above and fill up such post with CAO of CE.

                                                                                                Yours faithfully,

                                                                                                (Sujit Moitra)

        General Secretary
