Indian Masterminds Stories

Jaipur: In a sweeping crackdown on inefficiency and misconduct within the state administration, Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma has taken stringent action against 37 government officials, including IAS, RAS, and police officers, by approving compulsory retirements, departmental inquiries, and salary/pension stoppages.

The move includes compulsory retirement for 9 police inspectors, prosecution approvals for corrupt officials, and penalties impacting serving and retired bureaucrats.

9 Police Inspectors Forced into Retirement

As per the official statement, nine inspectors of the Rajasthan Police under the Home Department have been compulsorily retired from state service. The decision was based on a high-level committee review that assessed their:

  • Work performance
  • Integrity
  • Departmental inquiries
  • Efficiency reports

The government concluded that their continued service was not in the public interest due to unsatisfactory performance and questionable conduct.

Action Initiated Against IAS Officer for Illegal Land Allotment

In a separate and serious case, the Chief Minister has approved disciplinary proceedings under Rule 8 of the All India Services (Discipline and Appeal) Rules, 1969 against a senior Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer. The case pertains to illegal land allotment, reflecting the government’s firm approach towards rooting out corruption at the highest levels of bureaucracy.

Prosecution, Departmental Inquiries for RAS and Other Officers

Further actions include:

  • Prosecution approval for six officers
  • Permission under Section 17-A of the Prevention of Corruption (Amendment) Act, 2018 to conduct detailed investigation against two officers of the Rajasthan Administrative and Accounts Service
  • Annual salary increments stopped (with cumulative or non-cumulative effect) for 13 serving officers under CCA Rule-16

Pension Withdrawn for Retired Officers Found Guilty

Chief Minister Sharma has also cracked down on corruption among retired officials

  • Pension withheld for five retired officers
  • One officer found guilty in a corruption case will face 100% pension stoppage
  • Approval granted for inquiry findings in nine cases involving 14 retired officers

What Is Compulsory Retirement?

Compulsory retirement is a form of disciplinary action in which an employee is forcibly retired before reaching the age of superannuation, typically for:

  • Incompetence
  • Inefficiency
  • Misconduct
  • Corruption

Unlike voluntary retirement or dismissal, compulsory retirement offers no choice to the employee and is viewed as a punitive step aimed at cleansing the administrative machinery.

A Message of Zero Tolerance Towards Corruption and Negligence

This decisive move by CM Bhajan Lal Sharma is seen as a clear message to the bureaucratic and policing institutions of Rajasthan – inefficiency, corruption, or negligence will not be tolerated. It also marks a continuation of the Chief Minister’s pledge to uphold administrative accountability and deliver clean governance.
