JAMMU: J&K Jal Shakti Department, in the wake of an administrative exigency, has ordered elevation of 25 Executive Engineers as Superintending Engineers.

As per government order numbers 94-JK (JSD) of 2025 and 100-JK (JSD) of 2025, 25 Executive Engineers have been placed as Superintending Engineers on an incharge basis to overcome the shortage of over 90% vacancies at the level of SEs. These vacancies had been severely affecting the implementation of various water supply schemes on ground.

Earlier, Jal Shakti Minister, Javed Ahmed Rana, after reviewing the human resource scenario of the department, had directed for exploring the ways and means of elevating the Executive Engineers as SEs to overcome the shortage of senior officers.

Rana, who has been regularly reviewing HR scenario in Jal Shakti department, has issued clear instructions for timely conduct of DPCs and greater coordination between the officers of Jal Shakti and recruiting agency to fill up all the vacancies on emergent basis.
On the directions of Minister, an accountability mechanism is being put in place to ensure that officers responsible for allowing mismanagement in the cadre of engineers in Jal Shakti are held accountable.

The elevations have been ordered in relaxation of rules as an administrative exigency has enabled the department to fill up 25 critical supervisory posts. These posts were crucial to implementation of important water supply schemes including the Jal Jeevan Mission.
