brother i visited higher education department for almost 20 days.there were lecturers that have been appointed as s.o.on three departments my class fellows are working as s.o.similarly there are various other cadres where people have been accommodated by higher authorities.they are working since 1 year.if they are in dire need then why they are not moving forward for one year.the only thing you will find is lack of seriousness,carelessness and indifference to the existing system.if you have any credible source up to secretary level,then it can be believable.otherwise these are rumours.
