Para 22.2 o' 1th CPC posts carrying similarfunctions were given the same classification

Department of Personnel and Training haveclarified that though there were certainexceptions to the rule, like the case of Assistant of Central Secretariat, the effort

was to ensure that posts carrying similarfunctions were given the same classificationThere were situations in which the functionsof a post might not ade!uately match the

high pay scale attached to it and therefore,though they were eligi"le for higherclassification, they were classified at a lowerlevel
