Perform or perish for babus over 50?

Non-performing officers in the elite civil services -- IAS, IFS and IPS -- may be asked to pack up leaving space for "performers" if a plan to review their performance once they cross 50 years takes shape.

Indicating that officers could be compulsorily retired for non-performance, home minister P Chidambaram said on Wednesday that there was a strong case for conducting a review of officials after they attain the age of 50 years. If any official is not found upto the mark during the review the person concerned will be paid a generous pension so that he/she can make way for better performers.

Replying to questions by Intelligence Bureau officials at the annual Centenary Endowment Lecture, he said the proposed policy would not be limited to Indian Police Service (IPS) but cover Indian Administrative Service (IAS) and Indian Foreign Service (IFS) as well.

He sought cooperation of officials of the services once the system is implemented and said by this the career of better performers could be put on fast track.
