This Association has also discussed the matter several times and handed over the documents to your office for more than one occasion. At present there is a vacancy of MTS at Shillong due to voluntary retirement of one of the MTS working there.

The issue was referred to your office and the office of the CCA, UD by this Association as well as ZAO, CBDT Unit, Kolkata.   Responding to the request of this Association, CCA, UD has referred the matter to CGA.  Case of Ajoy Kumar Bagchi, Sr. Accountant, ZAO, CBDT, Kolkata may therefore be taken up with CGA without any further delay.
