3. The matter has been examined in Board’s Office and it has been observed that large number of APARs are pending at the Reporting Officers level. It may be appreciated that views of Reporting Officer are essential to have a true reflection of the performance of the employees in the past year for judging his/her suitability in matters relating to career progression of the employee.
