Shillong, June 19: The state Cabinet on Wednesday approved the proposal to allow deputy commissioners to finalise the roster system at their respective districts.

Addressing the media after the meeting, Social Welfare Minister Paul Lyngdoh said, “We have decided to decentralise the system whereby the DCs can finalise the roster system at their level, meaning the reservations of posts, which are at the district level.”

“They (DC) need not come up to the personnel department or the state government, for the finalisation of which post comes under which category as per the 80 percent reservation for Khasi-Jaintia and Garo in their respective districts,” he said.

“So, this will help to reduce the time gap required for clearance of appointment and also It will empower the DCs to finalise the vacancies in their respective districts without further reference to the state government,” Lyngdoh further added.
