New Delhi, Aug 10: Delhi Development Authority (DDA), the owner of the land where the Commonwealth Games village is coming up, may face shortage of experienced staff before the commencement of the mega event in 2010 with nearly 50 percent of its employees retiring over the next two years.About 600 gazetted officials or 50 per cent staff of the civic agency, who are looking after the preparations for the Commonwealth Games, will retire in the next two years prior to the extravaganza.
Key officials
The situation looks even more grim with the fact that the list includes over a dozen senior officials who are looking after the policies and planning to achieve the infrastructural targets."We are aware of the retirement issue and are looking at the options available with us to face the shortage of manpower. We know that there will be lack of some experienced hands but these retirements will not affect the preparations of the games at any cost," said a senior official of the civic agency.
Re-induction
The civic agency is also planning to re-induct some of its senior officials back into its fold, who had retired or will be retiring in the coming months. "We are thinking of re-inducting some of our seniors, who will retire in the coming months or had retired. Their experience will benefit us in the long run," the official added. (PTI)
