Officers on probation involved in corruption to be suspended on spot

Updated: Oct 30th, 2024


Officers involved in corruption or illegal activities during their probation period will be suspended immediately as per the new orders by the administrative department of Gujarat. Those who engage in such actions during their probation period will be terminated immediately once the situation comes to light.

If qualities like honesty, decisiveness, loyalty, and obedience are not seen in any individual, their performance would not be considered ‘satisfactory’.

The State General Administration Department has issued an order with guidelines regarding the extension or completion of the tenure for officers or employees appointed on a probationary basis. These guidelines also include instructions for writing an evaluation report during the probation period of the officer.

Employees will be offered permanent positions only after the evaluation period’s assessment.

The Cabinet members, senior officials of the Secretariat departments, heads of departments, the Speaker of the Assembly, the Public Service Commission, the Vigilance Commission, the Revenue Service Tribunal, the Gujarat High Court, the Panchayat Service Selection Board, the Information Commission, and heads of government offices have all been notified by the General Administration Department to comply with this order.
