Parl panel for use of 'officials of the Union of India' in place of Central government officials

New Delhi: A parliamentary committee has suggested the use of the term officials of the Union of India in place of central government officials for those serving in all the three organs of governance the executive, the legislative and the judiciary.

In its report, the panel observed that the executive, the legislature and the judiciary have well defined roles and they all function under the Constitution.

The Committee is of the considered opinion that these three organs of governance, by and large, constitute the Union government, it said.

The Committee feels that it is inappropriate to use the term Central Government Officials' to those serving the executive wing alone, the Department-Related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Personnel, Public Grievances, Law and Justice said in its 106th report on Demands for Grants (2021-22) of the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, tabled in Parliament on Tuesday.

The Committee desires the term Central Government' to be substituted by Union of India', it said.
