In a stringent move to ensure transparency and discipline during the ongoing paddy procurement season, the Rajnandgaon district administration has taken action against four employees for negligence in duty. These employees, deployed at interstate check posts to curb illegal transportation of paddy, were found absent from their designated duty locations.

Acting under the Chhattisgarh Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1966, the administration has ordered the withholding of one annual increment (with non-cumulative effect) for each of the four employees.

The employees penalised include:

  • Nagar Sainik Santaram Markande
  • Nagar Sainik Chumman Singh
  • Peon, Dongargarh Mandi Yogesh Mandloi
  • Peon, Dongargaon Mandi Ramesh Kumar Kosre

According to officials, the district administration had deployed mandi staff and Nagar Sena personnel on round-the-clock duty at interstate check posts to prevent the inflow of illegally transported paddy from neighbouring states. However, during surprise inspections, these employees were found absent, compromising the monitoring system at critical points.

Collector Jitendra Yadav has directed all officers and staff involved in paddy procurement operations to strictly adhere to duty schedules and ensure that no negligence occurs at any stage. He emphasised that preventing illegal paddy transport is a top priority, and any lapse directly affects the integrity of the procurement process.

The administration has reiterated that stringent action will continue against any employee who fails to perform assigned duties during the procurement period, as the district aims to maintain transparency and efficiency throughout the season.

India Emerges as Global Talent Powerhouse: NITI Aayog Report Reveals 1:19 Student Mobility Ratio

0
NITI Aayog’s latest report has revealed India’s fast-rising prominence in global talent mobility, highlighting a striking 1:19 ratio between incoming and outgoing students. While an average of 47,000 foreign students study in India annually, nearly 900,000 Indian students pursue higher education abroad each year. Analysts describe this shift as “brain circulation,” not brain drain, as 68% of Indian postgraduates return after completing their degrees overseas. The US, Canada, UK, Australia and Germany remain the most popular destinations for Indian youth. Meanwhile, most foreign students in India come from neighbouring and African nations for medical and technical programmes. With the government’s Study in India initiative aiming to host 200,000 foreign students by 2030, the report underscores India’s emerging status as a global talent hub.
