As many as 58 bureaucrats faced a penalty, including dismissal from services, compulsory retirement and pension cut, for unsatisfactory performance, the government said today. 

Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions Jitendra Singh told the Lok Sabha in a written reply, "From May 2014 till today, 13 Central Civil Service or All India Service officers have been dismissed, removed or compulsorily retired from government service and penalty of pension cut have been imposed on 45 others." 

The Centre recently issued instructions to assess the performance of bureaucrats to compulsorily retire non-performers.

He said the respective cadre-controlling authority of central services have been directed to monitor disciplinary cases against officers periodically. 

A committee chaired by the secretary, department of personnel and training, also monitors on quarterly basis the status of all delayed cases of sanction for prosecution and takes necessary steps to resolve delayed cases expeditiously, Singh said. 

The government has issued instructions to all ministries and departments regarding time-bound submission of proposals to the cadre controlling authority for initiating disciplinary proceedings against IAS officers, the minister said.
