Govt plays cupid, allows IAS, IPS couples to work in one state

NEW DELHI: In a Valentine’s Day gift to All India Services officers, the Government 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). (AGENCIES)
