The Armed Forces Headquarters Civil Services was established in 1968 to provide continuity in the functioning of the Armed Forces of the Republic of India, including the Integrated Headquarters of the Ministry of Defence (Army, Navy and Air), Defence Staff Headquarters and the Inter Service Organizations under the Ministry of Defence. The Service contributes significantly to the functioning of Armed Forces Headquarters/Inter-Service Organizations except those relating to technical and combat aspects in respect to the Armed Forces.

The Joint Secretary (Trg) and Chief Administrative Officer in the Ministry of Defence are the Cadre Controlling Authority and Head of the Department for AFHQ Civilian Employees. The cadre was established in 1968.[1][2][3] The number of employees in the service in 1968 was 1778;[1] in 2011, 2644,[4] and in 2016, 3235.[5]

Background

In 1942, during World War II, civilian employees under different departments and branches of the Armed Forces Headquarters responsible for providing static ancillary services were reorganized and consolidated under one head who was called the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO). The first CAO took over on the 1st of August, 1942.[6] In 1987, the post of Chief Administrative Officer (CAO), was upgraded to the level of a Joint Secretary (JS), under the Defence Secretary, who is the Cadre Controlling Authority and Head of the AFHQ employees.[3][7][8]

Upgrading of Posts

The AFHQCS had four grades in 1968: 204 were in Group A, and 1472 in Group B. The highest grade was senior civil staff officer, a level analogous to deputy secretary.[1] After the 4th Central Pay Commission (1986), a large number of existing posts were upgraded, which were again upgraded after the Sixth Central Pay Commission (2006). In 2011, the AFHQCS had 409 personnel at group A, including 4 at Joint secretary level, and 2235 at group B.[2] In July 2013 a committee was constituted to carry out further cadre restructuring/review of AFHQ Civil Service to further enhance the career prospects of the AFHQ-Civil Service.[3] It currently has six grades/levels, from Assistant Section Officer to Principal Director.[4][9][10]
