As many as 31 posts of chief executives were lying vacant in Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) as on November 30, Parliament was informed on Thursday.
The Government has already issued guidelines regarding additional charge arrangements so that regular functioning of these CPSEs is not affected, the Minister of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, Mr Praful Patel, said in a written reply to the Lok Sabha.
“Of the 31 posts, the recommendations of Public Enterprises Selection Board (PESB) are already available in respect of 12 posts and are awaiting approval of competent authority,” he said.
