Deadline for online filing of assets, liabilities details of IAS extended

The state government has extended the deadline for filing of assets and liabilities details of IAS officers. As per the new government resolution, they will now have to declare the details by October 15.

By this date, they will have to furnish details of two periods by which declarations were to be made. These are August 1, 2014, and March 30, 2015. The details, as per government rule, will have to be provided for spouse and children of the bureaucrat.

This is the third time there has been an extension for the same. Officers were supposed to first declare the status of August 1, 2014, by September 15, 2014. This was first extended to December 31, 2014.

Around this time, there was a circular from the central government which stated that the deadline should be extended to April 30. The deadline was later extended to October with the condition that the officers will have to put up details in the prism format online, on the state government's website. The details put up will have to show the asset and liabilities status of both periods of August 2014 and that of financial year ending March 2015.
