HYDERABAD: Around five youths, who are IT
professionals at the Centre for Good Governance (CGG), helped the state
government in the division process. The latest IT software came in handy
for the division of the state. Unlike bifurcation of other states,
there has been a vast improvement in technology at the time of
bifurcation of AP. Most other states like Punjab and MP did the work
manually. But, around five youths working as IT professionals at CGG
developed an exclusive software for the division work. “Five persons
supported by another five youths prepared the entire software at CGG.
Normally, preparing such a software will take at least three years and
costs government around Rs 3 crore. But, the CGG youths prepared the
software in a short span of time with much less amount,” Principal
secretary (Finance) PV Ramesh told reporters. An exclusive software was
necessary for the government to collect around 12.5 lakh government
employees data through online. After the HoDs uploaded the data, the
officials simply gave certain commands as per the Central government’s
guidelines. Then, the software automatically allocated the employees for
Telangana and AP. The software will also be useful for the officials
for the final allocation of statecadre employees between AP and T.
Without the help of IT, the gigantic task would take much more time to
do it manually. “Today is the end of journey. It is a very challenging
task. The most interesting work I have done in my career,” Finance
secretary PV Ramesh told reporters on Saturday. The Finance Department
is a nodal agency, which has to give clearance for sanctioning of any
post in any department. That was why the role of Finance department is
crucial in allocation of employees between two states. The CR
Kamalanathan committee will start work from June 2 for final allocation.
The provisional allocation work was done by the State government
officials. The Kamalanathan committee in consultation with chief
ministers of AP and T will frame the guidelines. Finally, the Prime
Minister has to ratify the final allocations. The work will starting
with identification of posts to personnel, calling for objections and
allocating the staff will take three to six months time.
No Promotions to State Staff
Till
the final allocation is made, there will be no promotions to
state-cadre employees. But, the employees in local to multi-zonal posts
may get promotions.
