New guidelines for issuing appreciation letters

Chandigarh : The Haryana government on Sunday said the state government employees, including officers, will get appreciation letters for their excellent performance. Chief secretary Sanjeev Kaushal has issued detailed instructions in this regard, saying that utmost care should be taken in issuing appreciation letters. They should only be awarded in truly evaluable cases and at the end of the prescribed reporting period. If appreciation is given too easily, it will lose its significance, he said.

He said the appreciation letters should only be issued by the appointing authority and not by an officer lower than him.
