The retiring employees may, voluntarily submit their write-up along with their pension papers. An online system has been developed to enable the retiring employees to upload these write-ups in a methodical manner. Till date 78 Ministries/Departments have been registered, 1249 write-ups have been published and 411 write-ups are being processed by the Head of Office for uploading on the web portal as per laid down procedure. A total of 40 write-ups have been rejected.
