Full list of 56 JS empanelled IRS officers; …but will they ever be joint secretaries?

AS MANY AS 56 IRS (IT) officers of 1988 batch were on Wednesday empanelled for appointment as joint secretary or equivalent at the Centre as against 1997 batch IAS officers who were already appointed as joint secretaries in government of India. The IRS officers have been complaining about their…
late empanelment as joint secretary, something that hampers in their career progression. According to existing norms, there should be only a two-year gap in empanelment of IAS and other Group “A” services officers. But in practice, the gap stretches up to a decade or even more.
Also, the probability of empanelled IRS, IPS or IRTS officers actually getting appointed as joint secretaries is also quite low, as their names at times are not even nominated to the ministries. The procedure is as follows: If a vacancy of a joint secretary arises in a ministry, DoPT’s Establishment Office sends three names to the ministry concerned to choose from. Many a time, the minister or the secretary of the ministry concerned indicates, though informally, which joint secretary she wants. The Establishment Office then obliges by including that name along with two others.
But what if an empanelled joint secretary fails to impress a minister or the secretary of a particular ministry? Also, how someone becomes a joint secretary if his or her name does not feature at all among the names nominated by the Establishment Office?
The IAS officers however argue that they must get preferences over others in appointment of joint secretaries as unlike other services they don’t have a dedicated ministry. If they don't become joint secretaries, what will they be, they argue. Also, they claim they are more experienced to handle policy matters as they work at all levels -- Panchayat, circle, sub-division, district, state and the Centre.
Maybe, this issue could be taken up by the 7th Central Pay Commission which is likely to submit its reports in the next six months.
But the question is: Will these 56 IRS officers who have been empanelled as joint secretaries, be actually joint secretaries in a GoI ministry? Only time will say. Here is the full list of 56 JS empanelled IRS officers:
