After amending Article 226 (2) of the Jammu and Kashmir Civil Service Regulations, authorities have ordered a fresh review of its employees’ performance for retirement after 22 years of service or 48 years of age. In November, the Jammu and Kashmir Board of School Education (JKBOSE) prematurely retired an orderly named Fayaz Ahmad Siraj after completing 27 years of service on October 14, 2020, making him the first employee to retire under the new law. Alongside the amendment, the Jammu and Kashmir Finance Department had asked the administrative secretaries for carrying out a review of the respective employees’ performance for implementation of the new rule.
