Chandigarh The Haryana government has amended the Haryana Service Act, 2014, taking major steps towards ensuring time -bound services to its citizens. Now if the designated officer or the Grievance Redressal Authority does not decide on the application or appeal within the stipulated time, then the right to service will be able to take cognizance in such cases. The Commission will be able to pass the appropriate order in case of unfair delay in the disposal of the application or appeal.
According to a notification issued by Chief Secretary Anurag Rastogi, a new provision has been added to replace Rule 9 of Haryana Service Rules, 2014. These rules will be called ‘Right to Haryana Service (Amendment) Rules, 2025’.
If the case is pending before the revision authority of a court or concerned department before applying to take advantage of a notified service, then in that case, under Section 17 of the Commission Act, it will not exercise his powers against the official or first or second or second grievance redressal authority under Section 17 of the Commission Act until the final decision is given by the Court or Revision Authority.
