Showing contexts for: subsequent qualification in M.Annai Muthu vs State Of Tamil Nadu Rep on 9 January, 2009Matching Fragments
9. After rehabilitating the first set of candidates who possessed minimum general educational qualifications as on the date of abolition, in the year 1982 itself, the Government decided to rehabilitate another group of candidates, who acquired minimum general educational qualification, subsequent to 20.2.1982. Therefore an order was issued in G.O.Ms. No.1287, Revenue Department, dated 6.7.1988. In pursuance of the said Government Order, many persons who lost their employment consequent upon the abolition and who acquired minimum general educational qualification after 1982, also got appointed, though temporarily under Rule 10(a)(i) of the General Rules for Tamil Nadu State and Subordinate Services.
16. Subsequently, a question arose as to whether the Ex. Village Officers who lost their jobs on 14.11.1980 and who got appointed temporarily after 1988 by acquiring the minimum general educational qualification subsequent to the date of abolition, would also be entitled to count their services (for the purpose of grant of minimum pension) from 14.11.1980, as ordered in G.O.Ms.No.756, Revenue, dated 17.8.1993.

But the persons appointed under Rule 10(a)(i) of the General Rules are those Ex. Village Officers who did not possess minimum general educational qualification at the time of abolition (i.e.) 14.11.1980 but obtained the educational qualification, subsequently to 20.2.1982. They had to register their names after qualifying themselves in the District Employment Exchange which would sponsor their names for the purpose of appointment under Rule 10(a)(i) whenever the Collector calls for names to fill up the vacancies for the post of Village Administrative Officers.
17. However, by an order in G.O.Ms.No.121, Revenue, dated 13.3.2001, the Ex. Village Officers who lost their jobs on 14.11.1980 and who got appointed temporarily after 1988 by acquiring the minimum general educational qualification subsequent to the date of abolition, but who retired without completing the qualifying service of 10 years, were granted the benefit of special pension originally ordered to the Ex-Officers who lost their jobs and who never got re-employment. Paragraphs-7 and 8 of the said order read as follows:-
