Chandigarh UT - Launch of "Reservation Roster Management System" by Adviser to the Administrator UT Chandigarh on 22nd October 2020

Adviser to the Administrator Sh. Manoj Parida, IAS launched “Reservation Roster Management System” on 22nd October 2020 developed by NIC for Personnel and Social Welfare Departments of Administration, at UT Secretariat in the presence of senior UT officers.  Secretary Personnel, Sh. S.K. Jha briefed about the features of the system which include allowing the HODs to monitor on their dashboards the real time category-wise vacancy position of SC/OBC, sending automated quarterly alerts to the Branch In-charges to update the information. Earlier on 2nd  July, 2020, Hon’ble Punjab Governor and UT Administrator Sh. V.P. Singh Badnore had launched “Recruitment Rules and Vacancy Management System” which provided the information gap related to updation of Recruitment Rules and vacancies. The Reservation Roster Management System completes this process for filling up the vacancies as also the roster required for promotion in future by giving category-wise vacancy.  This will help the departments to fill up the vacancies for both direct entries and promotions expeditiously. Filling up the vacancies will also improve the quality of delivery of administration. Timely information will improve the employee satisfaction.  It is important to note that because of the decision regarding retirement earlier this year relatively larger numbers of employees have retired from the service this year.  The system will also provide timely reminders to the HODs to take action so that the posts do not lapse after two years of remaining vacant. This will also help the cadre management in various cadres.     The Adviser to the Administrator congratulated the Personnel Department, Social Welfare Department and NIC for taking innovative measures to further streamline the administrative machinery.  He appreciated this effort to bring administrative efficiency as also transparency in the system.  He wanted the features of the software to be utilised enthusiastically by all the HODs by taking a holistic view to streamline the administrative machinery.
