- DIMAPUR — The
Confederation of All Nagaland State Services Employees' Association (CANSSEA)
has expressed its full support to the recent directives issued by the state
government concerning the conduct of government employees and the induction
process for the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) cadre.
- The association’s executive body, in its first quarterly
meeting held on March 13, endorsed the March 5 office memorandum issued by the
government, which strictly prohibits government employees from engaging in
private sector employment or trade, either directly or indirectly.
- “CANSSEA has decided to fully support the state government's
decision and urges all government employees to adhere to the directive for
strict compliance,” the association stated in a press release.
- The executive body also discussed the state government’s
vacancy circular dated March 10, 2025, regarding the induction and selection
process for one IAS cadre post from eligible officers serving under the state
government of Nagaland, excluding those from the state civil service, police
service, forest service, and judicial service.
- The CANSSEA commended the state government for introducing a
transparent eligibility criterion for the selection process.
- The association was of the view that this decision will help
maintain the credibility of the prestigious IAS cadre and provide deserving
non-state civil service officers with an opportunity for career advancement.
- While extending support to the government’s decisions,
CANSSEA also reminded the authorities about unresolved issues raised by the
core committee for IAS induction, which includes CANSSEA, FONSESA, NSSA, and
NF&ASA.
- The association urged the State Government to address these
concerns at the earliest in the interest of natural justice.
- “CANSSEA remains committed to supporting the welfare of
state government employees while ensuring compliance with government policies
and maintaining the integrity of the IAS induction process,” the release
stated.
