"The promotional avenues of junior or other officials should not be adversely affected. Extension would be proposed only if eligible candidate is not available for the promotion post from feeder cadre for at least two years. Good service record would be non-negotiable," he said.
A majority of annual confidential reports of the officials should be good or above and there should be no pending disciplinary action, he added.
The spokesman said that this would not apply in case of employees, whose term of re-employment after the approval of the council of ministers, is still continuing till the expiry of their current re-employment.
In case of doctors of health or ESI department, the age of retirement and period of re-employment would be as per the provisions contained in a notification dated November 21, 2016.
