Some central Government employees have been received a notice of Compulsory retirement as per Ccs conduct rule FR 56 j for their under performance as per Screening committee report from higher authority without any prior warning or action.
Although their past APAR reports r good. The higher authority didn’t give their chances to defend and their review procedures r also doubtful.
Can the authority take such kind of action and is it legal or justified?
