SCPC: Warrant of Precedence tinkered again

Presently the Defence Forces, this is what we have achieved, status and parity wise, in the past one year:

DIG is now officially equivalent to a Brigadier according to the 6th CPC.

Ministry of Home Affairs declares that all IPS officers shall attain the rank of DIG in 14 years’ service.

Senior Administrative Grade (SAG) is now officially equivalent to the rank of Major General as per 6th CPC.

Department of Personnel and Training declares that all IAS officers shall attain the SAG in 14 years of service.

What would be achievable by 100% IPS officers in 14 years would now be achievable by 7% defence officers in 28 years.

What would be achievable by 100% IAS officers in 14 years would now be achievable by 2% defence officers in 33 years.

Chairperson UPSC jumps from Article 17 of Warrant of Precedence to Article 9 whereas our Chiefs remain at Article 12.
