Nisha Parthiban IPS 10 Personal Facts, Biography, Wiki
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has changed service rules to allow married IAS and IPS officers to get same cadre state. At present, there is no provision in the existing guidelines for the cases where either of the officers of all India services–Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Police Service (IPS) and Indian Forest Service (IFoS)–i.E. husband or wife can opt for the cadre of their spouse being their respective home cadre. The decision to amend the rules is triggered by a unique case of 2011-batch IAS officer P Parthiban, who married to his batchmate and Tamil Nadu cadre IPS officer Nisha, who hails from Delhi. Parthiban is a native of Tamil Nadu and has been allocated union territories cadre, that includes Delhi. The couple had sought common cadre citing their marriage, as civil services rules allow it. However, the rules bars any member of the service from working in his or her home state. This matter was put up before a Committee, that decides on cases of inter-cadre transfer and deputation require relaxation in provisions of existing guidelines, headed by Secretary of Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT). The panel had then recommended change in guidelines, which has now been approved by Appointments Committee of Cabinet (ACC) headed by Modi. The ACC has approved that in cases where either of the officers cannot opt for the cadre of the spouse being their respective home cadre, the officers may choose the immediate next cadre opted by them in the detailed application form submitted to Union Public Service Commission (UPSC)–that conducts the exam to select such bureaucrats–below the present cadre allotted, an order issued by the DoPT said. A candidate has to give his or her order of preference of a desired cadre in the detailed application form during the civil services examination process. The UPSC conducts the examination annually in three stages — preliminary, main and interview– to select IAS, IPS and IFoS officers among others. “In case of non receipt of preference within the stipulated time from the concerned officers, they can be assigned the most deficit cadre between the two subject to receipt of No Objection Certificate from the parent cadre as well as recipient cadre,” the new policy reads. New Delhi, Feb 14 (PTI) In a Valentine’s Day gift to All India Services officers, the government has played cupid and today amended rules to mandatorily allow married couples from the IAS and IPS get the same cadre state. However, they will not get a cadre which is the home state of either of them. The amendment was cleared by the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The rules will be applicable to officers of the three All India Services–Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Police Service (IPS) and Indian Forest Service (IFoS). The decision to amend the rules was triggered by the case of 2011 batch IAS officer P Parthiban, who married his batchmate and Tamil Nadu cadre IPS officer Nisha, hailing from Delhi. Parthiban is a native of Tamil Nadu and has been allocated Union Territories cadre which includes Delhi. The couple had sought either the Tamil Nadu or the UT cadre to which they belonged citing their marriage, as civil services rules allow the couple to shift to one cadre state. The earlier rule also did not make it incumbent upon the government to shift the cadres of officers mandatorily and said it may do so as far as possible. This matter was put up before a Committee that decides cases of inter-cadre transfer and deputation. The panel is headed by Secretary of Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT). The ACC today approved that in cases where either of the officers cannot opt for the cadre state of the spouse in case it was also his or her home state, they can be allotted the immediate next cadre they had opted while filling out the detailed application form for civil services examination, an order issued by the DoPT said. A candidate has to give his or her order of preference of a desired cadre before appearing for main examination. The UPSC conducts the examination annually in three stages — preliminary, main and interview– to select IAS, IPS and IFoS officers among others. “In case of non receipt of preference within the stipulated time from the concerned officers, they can be assigned the most deficit cadre between the two subject to receipt of No Objection Certificate from the parent cadre as well as recipient cadre,” the new guidelines said. After today’s amendment to the rule, Parthiban and Nisha are likely to get Gujarat cadre, as earlier opted by them, according to a senior DoPT official.

THE Central government has changed the service rules to make it easy for married IAS and IPS officers to get the same cadre state, according to media reports published on Monday. According to the reports, prime minister Narendra Modi took special initiatives to get the existing rules amended. But what triggered the government to change the rules which received nods from the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet (ACC)? The issue originated in a unique case that cropped up in February 2016 in which… the government found it difficult to accord inter-cadre transfer of P Parthiban, a 2011 batch AGMUT cadre IAS and his spouse Nisha Parthiban, 2011 batch IPS, to a common cadre on grounds of marriage. Usually, the officers belonging to all India services i.e. Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Police Service (IPS) and Indian Forest Service (IFoS) manage inter-cadre transfers on grounds of marriage. But in case of the Parthiban couple, the problem arose because P Parthiban could not be placed in Tamil Nadu cadre where Nisha Parthiban was working, as Tamil Nadu happened to be his home cadre. And similarly, Nisha Parthiban could not be transferred to her husband’s cadre AGMUT, as she belongs to Delhi which is a part of the AGMUT cadre. There was no provision till now under which the husband or the wife could opt for the cadre of their spouse being their respective home cadre. So when this unique case came up to a panel headed by the then DoPT secretary Sanjay Kothari, he did not take the final call. Instead, he decided to put up the proposal for seeking the approval of the ACC headed by the Prime Minister. Now, the new policy says that if either of the officers cannot opt for the cadre of the spouse (because they are respective home cadres), they may choose the immediate next cadre opted by them. And in case of non receipt of preference within the stipulated time from the officers concerned, they will be assigned the most deficit cadre. IPS officer Nisha, 31, originally hails from Delhi. She did her MA before getting into the Indian Police Service. She was allotted the Tamil Nadu cadre. In a November 2015 reshuffle in the state, she was given the assignment of deputy commissioner of police (law and order) in Coimbatore city. On the other hand, 33-year-old P Parthiban did his mechanical engineering before getting into IAS. He belongs to Tamil Nadu.
