The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has invited applications from Executive Engineers and Deputy Chief Engineers to fill the vacant post of Assistant Commissioner of BMC. At present, about 50 percent of the posts of assistant commissioners in the municipality are vacant and many departments do not have full time assistant commissioners. Many officers are given more than one responsibility.
Assistant Commissioner BMC is appointed through the Public Service Commission. This post is non-promotional. Assistant Commissioners are the heads of 24 divisional offices in the Municipal Corporation. Assistant commissioners are also heads of other departments like tax assessment and collection, planning. But in the last few years, these posts of Assistant Commissioner are largely lying vacant. 50 percent of the posts of Assistant Commissioner in Municipal Corporation are vacant. Out of a total 35 posts, only 17 posts are filled.
Of the remaining 18 posts, 11 posts have been given additional charge to Executive Engineers or Deputy Chief Engineers. Some of the officers currently holding the post of Assistant Commissioner are eligible for the post of Deputy Commissioner. However, due to non-availability of candidates for the post of Assistant Commissioner, his promotion has also been stalled. Some officers are holding both the post of Deputy Commissioner and Assistant Commissioner. The General Administration Department of the Municipality has invited applications from the officers of the post of Executive Engineer and Deputy Chief Engineer for appointment to these posts until these posts are filled by the Public Service Commission.
Applications are invited for the post of Deputy Chief Engineer and Executive Engineer from interested officers with at least three years of experience, competent and impeccable service by July 5. Interested candidates will be interviewed on July 10.
