KCR against proposed amendments to AIS rules

Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao on Monday wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressing his strong protest against the proposed amendments to the All India Services (Cadre) Rules, 1954, by the Centre.

He demanded the Centre to cease and desist from the proposed amendments in the interest of administrative fairness and federal polity of the Constitution. The present provisions of AIS Cadre Rules were adequate to ensure harmonious and balanced deployment of officers, he said.
