smuggling.
Sometimes family members uncles, cousins, and
stepfathers also act as trafficking agents.
Human Trafficking in India
The phenomenon of Human Trafficking has
increased significantly over past two decades all over
the world and India is no exception. Nepal is a major
source of trafficking of women and children. The
large unrestricted movement of people across the
porous Indo-Nepal border and the clandestine nature
of the crime, makes Human Trafficking a difficult
crime to detect. The Ministry of Women, Children and
Social Welfare of Nepal has identified 26 of Nepal’s
20
Modus Operandi of Traffickers
The girls are first taken from their native
villages to Kathmandu and kept in guest houses. From
there they are taken to border towns in Nepal like
Birganj, Kakarbhitta, Bhairawaha, Mahendernagar,
Krishnanagar, Nepalganj, Pashupatinagar and
Biratnagar, where they are sold to brokers. The brokers
then take them to the cities like Bombay, Kolkata,
Delhi or even to smaller cities and sell these girls to

of its prime area of concern. Because of its deployment
on Indo-Nepal and Indo-Bhutan border, SSB personnel
are first responders to the incoming traffic from these
countries. They are effectively preventing Human
Trafficking with the help of State Police and other
stakeholders at local level. SSB works on detection of
trafficking, detention of the perpetrators and handing
over of the culprits to the police, rescue of victims and
their rehabilitation with the help of NGOs, and follow
up of Human Trafficking cases.
Girls rescued by SSB 41st BN personnel from traffickers at Panitanki BOP (WB)
brothel owners. Late trends show that the cities like
Banaras, Agra, Bengaluru, Pune and Kanpur are fast
emerging as destinations that are industrial transit hubs
for trafficked girls and children. Besides, women and
children are trafficked to middle east counties from
India.
Routes
Main routes through which most of
the trafficking has been observed are through
Mahendranagar-Banbasa in Uttarakhand, DhangarhiPalia, Nepalganj-Rupediah, Krishnanagar-Barhni,
Bhairhawa-Sonauli, Maheshpur- Thoothibari in
Uttar Pradesh, Birganj-Raxaul, Biratnagar-Birpur in
Bihar and Kakarbhitta-Panitanki in West Bengal. As
the prospects of Human Trafficking are increasing,
new routes for Trafficking are being adopted by the
traffickers. Latest route is from Srilanka to Lucknow
–Kathmandu to Paris and other European countries.
The peak trafficking months are between June
and late August or early September when the traffickers
return to the villages to participate in local festivals to
recruit girls. These months are known as the ‘hungry
months’ and precede the harvest, when poverty is felt
most acutely, making it easy to lure. At this time, every
mountain village of Nepal suffers from more than
the usual level of poverty, while they wait for the new
harvests.
Role and Achievements of SSB
SSB has categorized Human Trafficking as one
Effect of Earthquake in Nepal on Human
Trafficking activities
It has been noticed that people are vulnerable
to trafficking during ‘distress migration’ and from
‘disaster prone areas’ during floods, earthquakes, crop
failures, riots, terrorist activities, etc. In the aftermath
of the devastating earthquake that rattled Nepal on
25th April, 2015, a spurt in the human Trafficking
cases was noticed. Director General, SSB particularly
emphasized on checking Human Trafficking across
the borders during his field inspection of Relief and
Rescue works on Indo-Nepal border after the Nepal
earthquake. SSB intercepted 14 cases of trafficking,
apprehended 23 traffickers and rescued 59 victims
from Indo-Nepal border within a span of two months
after the earthquake in Nepal.

NGO’s working in the field of Human
Trafficking
SSB works in tandem with numerous
NGOs active in the field of Human Trafficking
along Indo-Nepal border. Prayas, Maiti Nepal and
Manav Seva Sansthan are three such NGOs which
have achieved considerable success in rescuing
and rehabilitation of the victims of trafficking on
Indo-Nepal border in coordination with SSB. Apart
from these, there are some other NGOs working
in different border towns on Indo-Nepal border.
These organisations mainly function on the aspects
of rescue, apprehension, counseling, rehabilitation
and sensitization.
What can be done ?
Human Trafficking is a multifaceted activity
that involves a chain of offenders. To eliminate
this menace we will have to work on many fronts.
There has to be a close coordination between the
different Government agencies, NGO’s and people.
Apart from the preventive measures we will have to
sensitize people on this issue to make the vulnerable
sections of the society aware about the dangers and
educate them about their human rights so that they
are not tricked by the traffickers.
SSB is making all out efforts in achieving
these objectives by keeping a close watch on the
borders and at the same time organizing various
awareness programmes in the bordering villages
of Indo-Nepal and Indo-Bhutan borders. SSB
also organised a seminar on Human Trafficking on
26th December, 2014 at Vigyan Bhawan that was
attended by representatives of various stake holders
and NGOs from India and Nepal. On the initiative
of Director General, SSB, MHA has agreed to
make SSB a member of the AHTUs (Anti Human
Trafficking Units) of the bordering districts on IndoNepal border for better co-ordination between SSB
and other stake holders.
It is a widely accepted thought that simply
rescuing the victims and sending them back to their
respective countries will not resolve the issue. A
comprehensive approach is required to deal with
the menace of trafficking along with discreet stigma
reduction measures for the trafficking victims and
SSB in all its sincerity is committed to it. 

Preventive Endeavours
Workshop on Prevention of Wild Elephant Attack
O
f late incidents of wild elephant attacks on
SSB personnel have been reported during
duty in elephant infested areas. The matter
was viewed seriously by Inspector General, Guwahati
Frontier and so immediately guidelines on prevention
of wild elephant attacks were prepared and circulated
to all. A workshop was also conducted on Prevention
of Wild Elephant Attack on SSB personnel.
The aim of the workshop was to create the
right awareness amongst SSB personnel about wild
elephant behaviour in a herd, splinter groups, a lone
elephant bull in musth, mother with baby calf, offensive
pair (maljuriya), etc. Once our personnel learn about
behavior of elephants in different situations it would
be easier for them to estimate the imminent danger of
attack and take appropriate precautionary measures
42
to save their precious lives. The ultimate aim is to
reduce the chances of human elephant conflict to
the minimum extent and causality to zero level.
35 personnel from the BOPs located in
the elephant corridors attended the workshop.
Veterinary Officers of Tezpur SHQ and CTC
Salonibari also attended the workshop. Dr K K
Sarma, Prof & HOD, Department of Veterinary
Surgery, College of Veterinary Sciences, Khanapara
(Assam), Shri Dipen Kalita, Elephant Trainer and
Shri Hiten Kumar Baishya, Co-ordinator, Elephant
Conservation, WWF-India were subject specialists
in the workshop. Dr Sarma has vast experience of
handling human elephant conflict and is an expert
in elephant behavior and treatment. He is also a
member of Indian Rhino Vision 2020.

temporal region.
• Maljuria :- They are adolescent male and female
who live on the periphery of herd and they are also
likely to attack.
• Traditional routes:- The routes/corridor used by
the elephant herds for movement from one area
to other area. In the next season when elephant
herds come back to grazing areas and find human
settlement in their routes they will create havoc. Fact
is, if elephant herds do not go to new areas in search
of feed/fodder they will die of starvation.
• Mega Herbivore: The weight of adult elephant
is 3500 kgs to 4000 kgs. One adult elephant needs
about 250-300 kg of feed/fodder and about 250
litres of water per day. Depletion of forest areas
have greatly reduced the availability of feed/fodder.

The origin of the Gadhimai Mela festival can be
traced to the myth about a feudal landlord Bhagwan
Chaudhary from Baryarpur in Bara district of
Nepal, who was imprisoned in the Makwanpur Fort
Prison. One night, it is said that he had a dream
where the Goddess Gadhimai appeared before him
and demanded a blood sacrifice in return for solving all
his problems. As per the myth, Bhagwan Chaudhary
returned to Baryarpur with intent to carry out the
sacrifice. He could not bear to sacrifice a human
instead he sacrificed five animals as panchbali, which
involved the sacrifice of a single animal of five speciesa buffalo, pig, goat, chicken and rat. The myth took
the shape of a festival and is being conducted every
five years at the Goddess Gadhimai Temple. Lakhs
of people from India travel to witness and thousands
go to sacrifice animals and birds too.

Organization of Secret Intelligence Agencies in Ancient India
I
K. L. Puri
Joint Area Organiser (Int)
ndian history illustrates that ancient Indians had
gained great expertise in the field of Intelligence
Trade Craft. The techniques and operational
methods adopted by them were highly advanced,
and can be usefully emulated in the modern age
of Intelligence trade craft. The techniques of
manipulating public opinion adopted by modern
intelligence system were propounded by Chanakya
several centuries ago.
Intelligence was an indispensable feature and
integral part of an efficient administration and of a
sound foreign policy. It kept the rulers updated with
the activities, afflictions, and operations of political
adversaries, their disloyal and disgruntled elements,
fifth columnists and foreign agents in their midst,
also the strength and intentions of all foreign power.
The secret service department became a permanent
feature of the state and was organised in the most
'uninhibited manner'. The blue-print on espionage
prepared by Chanakya has remained a model for
successive generations. Various aspects of the
organization of a secret agency enumerated in the
Arthasastra are briefly touched upon here.
ancient India were considered as a tool of governance.
Secret agents were considered as ‘eyes of the king’.
Structure of Intelligence setup:
Category of Agents:
The Arthasastra mentions two wings of ‘secret
service’, viz. ‘Samstha’ and ‘Sancara’. The agents
belonging to Samstha (Stationary) were stationed
in the Establishment financed by the State. These
agents were used to collect, collate and transmit the
information received from other agents in coded
language. The Sancaras(roving) moved from place to
place depending on professional requirements. Both
types of agents were permanent state employees
on fixed salaries. Some agents were employed
on temporary basis for a specific task and paid,
Espionage:
accordingly. The spymasters of the two wings headed
Espionage was called the second oldest
their respective cadre of agents, and
profession in the Indian Vedas. Secret Agencies in
controlled their operations. The members
of one group were not aware of the
existence of the other. This classification
of Chanakya has been followed in India
throughout the successive centuries. In
addition to these agents the Chancellor,
who was in charge of revenue collection
and security had his own intelligence
network. The Intelligence Officer
operating under cover was in charge of the
57
10/23/2015 6:29:07 PM
intelligence unit. Other static agents operate under
the supervision of Intelligence Officer. The mobile
agents were further classified as follows. The most
ubiquitous agent was termed as Secret Agent who
was used for general purpose. The Secret Agents were
everywhere, both inside the country and in foreign
countries, adopting a cover which was appropriate to
the location. The next were Assassins, who were used
mainly to kill enemy chieftains and kings, secretly.
Poisoners, Wandering Nuns and Ascetics were the
other categories. Clandestine agents were deputed for
numerous purposes within the country, surveillance
on high ranking officials and population. To prevent
subversion by enemy, trapping criminals and detecting
anti-social elements, psychological war against the
enemy. Clandestine agents had extra legal protection
and powers.
Motivation of Sources:
Motivation of persons
to cater intelligence is
directly proportionate
to their weakness for
sex and money, besides
the burning desire of
revenge or insatiable
hunger for power. The
spymasters of ancient
India exploited these
weaknesses to their
fullest advantage and even the modern intelligence
agencies heavily depend on these considerations.
Chanakya advocated that the weak should be
subjugated by means of conciliation and gifts, the
strong by means of dissension and force. All Agents
were honoured and rewarded by the king.
Recruitment and Training of Secret Agents:
A study of Arthasastra, the Mahabharata, and
the Ramayana reveals that there was no fixed source
of recruitment of secret agents. Modern intelligence
services generally resort to three main sources of
recruitment, the academic world, the armed services
and the under-world. This was also the pattern
followed in ancient India. After recruitment, the
58
secret agents were put through a rigorous training
in the techniques of adopting disguises, changing
appearances, science of signaling, secret writing,
detection and identification of criminals, manipulating
public opinion and creating dissensions in the enemy
ranks. A courageous and sharp student shall be
trained to be an Intelligence Officer. He shall be
well rewarded with honour and money. Honest and
intelligent persons shall be recruited to act as spies.
These agents, having been provided with plenty of
money and assistants, shall pursue an occupation at
the places assigned to them.
Control and Supervision:
According to Chanakya, the institution of
spies as an organization did not function under a
unified
command.
The spies and secret
agents worked under
their respective heads
of department, and
also directly under the
king. It must have been
difficult for the king
to personally handle
the
comprehensive
and
complicated
department
of
intelligence. According
to the Arthasastra, the department of external affairs,
which was covering military intelligence, was managed
by the king with the help of his Foreign Minister
and the Commander-in-Chief of Army. The agents
detailed to cover the Senior Officers of the Central
Government certainly reported to the king directly.
In the far-flung areas of extensive kingdoms and in
view of poor means of communication, the action
especially in times of war had to be taken by men on
the spot and not by the king who may be at a place
far away from the field of action. In foreign countries
the spies were kept under the control and supervision
of ambassadors who scrutinized their reports and
directed intelligence operations.
10/23/2015 6:29:07 PM
who is consistently unreliable shall be eliminated.
Communication of Intelligence:
Intelligence not properly and promptly
conveyed and which cannot be acted upon loses its
value and validity. Besides this, Chanakya recommends
the use of coded language and signals.
Interception of Mail:
Selection and Infiltration of Targets:
Chanakya, in a very subtle manner and with an
intimate knowledge of human psychology, selected
his targets in foreign lands depending on their
weaknesses and motivation. He advised secret agents
to concentrate on targets: Among those who are dissatisfied with the rulers
or had been humiliated or exiled;
 Who have not been compensated for their
expenditure.
 Who have been deprived of their rightful
inheritance to office.
 Whose women have been molested by force.
 Who were wrongly imprisoned.
 Whose property had been confiscated.
 Who are prone to blackmail due to some weakness.
Double-Agent Operation:
‘Double Agents’ were used for creating
dissensions and confusion among the confederates of
the enemy. They floated false documents, got them
seized from the possession of the enemy’s army chiefs
and thus weakened the enemy. ‘Double Agents’ were
used to winning over the confidence of their adopted
masters by sacrificing a few exposed, treacherous,
disaffected or inefficient spies.
Payment of Sources:
The secret agents were facilitated with money
and honour. The sources were paid both in cash and
kind, besides receiving extraordinary courtesies and
favours. It was also recommended that secret agents
not only be rewarded for the job done by them
but, also, in the event of repeated mistakes, silent
punishment-death-be awarded to them. Any agent
In the ancient period, since intelligence was
communicated through pre-determined signals and
with the assistance of pigeons, secret agents must
have made elaborate arrangements to intercept these
messages.
Assessment of Information:
The Arthasastra cautioned against the placing
of reliance on agents without proper corroboration.
It is repeatedly emphasized that all aspects of a
report must be gone through, including the source
of information, the mode of its collection and the
past performance of a source before it is accepted.
Briefing and debriefing of secret agents was an
elaborate exercise, and they were trained to be precise,
accurate and truthful in reporting. Any information
corroborated by three spies shall be taken to be true.
Intelligence Analysis:
Kautilya states that in the realm of statecraft, there
are three types of knowledge.
i) Immediate knowledge based on what the ruler
himself sees and hears.
ii) Indirect knowledge, based on what the ruler is
being briefed by ministers, spies, diplomats or other
‘experts’ about occurrences which are distant in space
and time, that is the product of intelligence analysis.
iii) Knowledge inferred from immediate and mediated
knowledge with respect to future developments and
the ruler’s own indented actions, that is, intelligence
assessments.
This statement about the three variants
of knowledge in statecraft in the Arthashastra is
most significant with respect to the methodology
of intelligence analysis and assessment as well as
strategic planning. Kautilya argues that all three types
59
10/23/2015 6:29:08 PM
of knowledge need to be deliberated by the ruler
in conclave with his close advisers. The incoming
information must be reviewed. Kautilya insists that
adequate analysis of intelligence reports depends on
collective deliberation.
vanquish an adversary, had been greatly perfected
in ancient India. Secret practices for sabotage were
advocated by Chanakya to ensure victory. As a preface
to sabotage, he suggests the creation of an atmosphere
congenial to arousing terror, fear, demoralization,
disappointment and loss of confidence among the
enemy ranks. Prior to launching a full-scale assault on
the enemy fort, Chanakya suggests implementation
of secret measures to weaken its defences not only
physically but in all respects. These include, prevention
of sowing the fields, destruction of the standing
crops and cutting of the enemy’s supply lines. He
also advises free and uninhibited use of poison in the
articles used by the enemy.
Working Under Cover:
The institution of espionage in ancient India,
like modern times, required secret agents to work under
some kind of ‘cover’ to preserve secrecy. Chanakya
institutionalized the art of working under the most
ingenious ‘covers’. The most common disguises
recommended by him were those of ascetic, medic,
merchant, artisan, artiste, cook, barber, etc. Chanakya
recommends the use of women as effective tools of
espionage particularly, those who were engaged in The employment of Visakanyas:
harlotry.
Secret Agencies in ancient India had perfected very

Disinformation and Dissension:
It is used to create disharmony and distrust
among the enemy’s friends, ill-will among his allies,
loss of confidence in their leadership and disruption
by psychological means his capacity and will to
fight. Chanakya had perfected the technique of
disinformation and highly eulogized the use of
dissension in enemy’s ranks for winning a battle
without any military action. His winning an extensive
empire for his student Chandragupta Maurya without
fighting any mentionable battle is unparalleled in
history.

woman suffering from Venereal disease or, in the latest
situation one suffering from AIDS is a Visakanya of
this kind.

E-Governance
Sandip Chaudhuri
FO (CC) FTR HQR, SSB, Siliguri
 government to government
 government to business.
E
lectronic Government has become one of
the most important issues of the modern
age. The IT infrastructure has made direct
participation of a common man in the Government
matters with access to all the information he needs
E-governance is the ideal government system. It
is transparent and fast decision making process.
E-Government solutions are open systems and are
exposed to more and different risks from traditional
systems.
E-governance is the application of
information and communication technologies to
transform the efficiency, effectiveness, transparency
and accountability of informational & transactional
exchanges with in government, between government
and government agencies of National, State and Local
levels and to empower citizens through access and use
of Information.
What is E-Governance?
 The word “electronic” in the term e-governance
implies technology driven governance. E-governance
is the application of Information and Communication
Technology (ICT) for delivering government
services, exchange of information communication
transactions, integration between the employees with
the Controlling Officers.
Generally four basic models are available –
 government to citizen
 government to employees,
68
Why E-Governance?
• Access of information
•
Transparency
•
Economic
•
Global
•
Lack of Key Person
Components of E-Governance

•
Social
•
Cultural
•
Psychological
•

Objectives of E-Governance
•
To build an informed environment
•
To increase interaction
•
To bring transparency
•
To make work accountable

To reduce the cost
•
Speed work
Benefits of E-Governance
•
Better Access of information
•
Quality Service
•
Simplicity
•
Efficiency
•
Accountability
•
Expanded
•
Lack of Key Person
First step of e-governance is establishment
of infrastructure in the office in such a way that all
the information that is being generated is properly
processed and stored in appropriate form. The stored
information must also be updated periodically.
Movement of File / Letter:
Computerization eliminates the need of physical
movement of files since they are accessible to all the
functionaries at the same time. Any person who has
10/23/2015 6:29:21 PM
to process the file can make the appropriate entries
and the next functionary in line will have the updated
file on his PC, instantaneously. A major advantage of
this system is that the files cannot go under a big file
on the table, another significant gain from the system
is that whole progress is transparent which makes
the decision impartial. Good government must also
be able to establish a good control over the entire
machinery as well as over the various events that takes
place in the office.
Example of One e-Governance model technically:
To establish e-Governance in this organisation
in Frontier level. We have to install one Domain
Server with Exchange. Names of officers and
employee are to be added in Active Directory and
configured in exchange for mailing. Generally, all
computers, installed in Frontier Headquarters office
are in LAN. We have to configure all computers under
domain. Whenever we configure computer under
domain, it is automatically configured with exchange
through outlook. All computers are the clients of the
Server. From any client we can move file, letter, etc.,
to our Senior Officers. Senior officers may correct the
letter and also give instruction/suggestion/decision
through his/her computer. One can see the date and
time for each movement of file.
so on. All movement through computer and after
final decision, the dealing clerk must print out the
documents and to be kept in the file. Soft copy of all
Note sheet and documents are also available in the
server.
For backup of the data of the server, there is
a provision to make it automatic to its other part of
hard driver of Server as well as in another computer
in the LAN.
Two hard drives should be installed in the
server so that one drive as mirror of other, then
the data in the server is always secure. In addition,
there should be one extra hard drive of 1 TB in the
server, having required space for each branch, so that
all branch may keep their record (which is safe and
secured) in the server. Access power of the record is
under restriction i.e. according to the access level.
We may send message to Control Room / Telecom
Branch through LAN and also Control Room /
Telecom Branch may send messages received from
other unit to any officer or branch through LAN.
Besides this, if we install one Network Printer in
the LAN, then we can take out Hard copy from
the network printer by giving command from any
computer of LAN. This will fecilitate withdrawal
of printers from all except Senior Officer. This will
fecilitate the prospects for a paperless office thus
saving money on paper, storage equipments, spaces in
the office premises, ensuring security of documents,
and tampering too. 
Beside this, if we may configure Organisation
Unit (OU) and public folder, then we can give the
power of access to each individual e.g. Branch officer
can access the all document of his/her branch but
not other branch. Staff Officer can access all the This model may extend to any SSB Unit by using existing
documents of the branches, which are under him/ MPLS Line, The Frontier Hqr may extend the same
her. I.G. can access all documents of all branches and communication with SHQs, BNs and Area Offices.

e-Transfer Application System
e
-Transfer Application System (e-TAS) software is
developed In-House at FHQ Pers Branch without
any assistance of outside vendors. ASP.Net and
SQL 2008 R2 are used as front end and back end
platform. This is a web based application and can be
accessed through Internet/ Intranet. Initially e-TAS will
be accessed only through WAN connected computers.
This website can be best viewed in 1366 x 768 screen
resolution (Recommended in window 7 and window 8)
in all popular browsers i.e., Google Chrome, Mozilla Fire
Fox, Opera, Safari. Access to the software is Login based
and according to hierarchy i.e., Units, Sectors, Frontiers
and FHQ as well as work distribution of dealing hands.
Unique Identification Number (UID) is mandatory for
operating e-TAS software. The system will run on the
database already available in PIMS software to access
the live data fed by the Unit concerned.

the speed of the whole process from application stage
to issue of orders. Any employee of SSB can apply
for transfer on the prescribed form. The Transfer
Application Form can be downloaded from e-TAS
software as well as SSB Portal / WEB site. The flow
chart of the software is as under:l Application submitted by the applicant for :
4 Annual Transfer
4 Compassionate Ground (Weekly Transfer)
l
Conceptulization
l
As Is the procedure at present, the applicants
submit hardcopy of transfer applications to the Unit
Heads under whom the applicant is currently posted.
Office staff enters all data into excel / word file and
also maintain a record in manual register. Hardcopy of l
format along with original copy of transfer applications
and supporting documents submitted by the applicants
are forwarded to Force Hqrs, through proper channel l
i.e., routed through Sector DIG and Frontier IG, duly
recommended by them. Cadre controlling branches at
FHQ scrutinize the applications and vacancy positions
and then prepare the data in excel file.
l
Repetitive data entries in excel / word file is
being done at different levels i.e., Unit, Sector, Frontier
and Force Hqrs, which is a tedious and time taking job l
and results in massive wastage of paper and printer
cartridges. Therefore, a team comprising of Insp(Min)
Parag Purohit and SI(Commn) Surendra Kumar Pal were
entrusted to develop a software to simplify this complex
process. Accordingly, after much efforts, e-TAS has l
been developed and made functional w.e.f., 1st August
2015.
Objective
e-TAS will eliminate all manual intervention and increase l

Innovations
On receipt of the application at Unit Hqrs, the
receiver / despatcher will enter UID of the applicant
and after verification generate a Token number in
the system and provide acknowledgement to the
applicant.
Dealing Hand of Transfer desk will feed transfer
details as requested by the applicants i.e., 3 choices
of posting, Grounds of Transfer, etc., to submit to
Heads of the Unit.
The applications will be examined and recommended by Heads of the Units, it will be
automatically forwarded to Sector DIG.
Similarly, the applications examined and
recommended by SHQ DIG / Frontier IG and
will be automatically forwarded to Frontier IG and
FHQ respectively.
Once the data entry is made in e-TAS, 15 days time
frame is fixed for recommendation at each and every
stage i.e., Unit, Sector and Frontier.
If any, application is not attended (within 15 days)
by the concerned recommending officer, the
application will be escalated to next level with
the remarks “unattended” and will be taken as
“Recommended”.
The transfer applications so received from
all Frontiers will be examined by Cadre Controlling
branches at FHQ and fill vacancy position as per
seniority list maintained by respective Pers branches.

forwarded. Now, all Heads of offices are requested to
make use of this application.
Suggestions / feedback are also invited for
development of software to make e-TAS more userfriendly. Our next goal is to develop an automated
transfer system which will be added to e-TAS so that
the system can complete all annual chain transfers at the
click of the mouse after considering all three choices
requested by the applicant while conforming to the
transfer policy in vogue. 
Electronic APAR Management System
n sync with the Government of India’s initiative
of ‘Digital India’ the introduction of ‘Electronic
Annual Performance Appraisal Report (APAR)
Management’, is yet another milestone in the SSB’s
Personnel Directorate’s date with technology. This is
a step forward in the series of initiatives indigenously
taken in securing e-Smart solutions to meet the ever
changing requirements of the force. SSB adopted
modern technology as a means for troubleshooting
the problems and challenges faced in all spheres of
its activities with the objective of achieving excellence
in the administrative and operational efficiency of the
Force.
l Objective
The introduction of prototype module christened
‘e-APAR solution’ is an attempt to evolve a mechanism
to ensure effective monitoring of APAR writing process
beginning with check-list creation through to its final
completion within the prescribed time-frame. The
move is aimed at reducing delays which take place in
processing the Annual Performance Appraisal Reports
of officers every year.
Paladan Namgial
AD (Pers-IV), FHQ
l Software Architecture
e-APAR solution is a web based application hosted
on blade server WAN I.P. address 10.1.1. 17 and can
be accessed through WAN connected computers.
This website can be best viewed in 1366 x 768 screen
resolution (Recommended in window 7 and window 8)
in all popular browsers viz. Google Chrome, Mozilla
Fire Fox, Opera, Safari etc. Access to the software is
login based and according to the channel of rendition
of APAR. Unique Identification Number (UID) is
mandatory for operating e-APAR software. The system
has been integrated with the PIMS software to fetch
the live data fed by the Unit concerned. The application
is available in three levels of user management: User,
Admin and Super-admin based on defined privileges.
71
10/23/2015 6:29:25 PM
l Approach and Methodologies
The application is divided into following functional
modules:
l Check List creation by the Personal Staff of Officers
or the admin branch as the case may be.
 Recording date of Submission of Self Appraisal.
 Recording of APAR grading by Initiating Officer
(Admin and Technical) as the case may be.
 Recording of APAR grading by Reviewing Officer
(Admin and Technical) as the case may be.
 Recording of APAR grading by Accepting Authority.
 Forwarding of APAR to custodian by Accepting
Authority.
The above functional modules provide window
for check list creation i.e., to enter the name and other
particulars of officers/staff to be reported upon during
the reporting year, entry of date of submission of self
appraisals, recording and APAR grading by the Initiating
Officer, Reviewing Officer and finally by the Accepting
Authority and the date of submission to the next level
by Initiating Officer (IO), Reviewing Officer (RO) and
Accepting Authority (AA).
l Salient Features
‘Electronic APAR Management System’ is of immense
help to SSB in storing all the data currently being
manually maintained regarding APARs, tracking the
APARs, maintaining their status and in generating the
reports. The application thus will not only reduce both
the cost and effort in retaining the present process, but
will also improve efficiency by providing extra features
and minimizing manual intervention. Following are the
salient features of the application:
Security and User-Management:
The application with Access Based Logins has an inbuilt security mechanism to ensure that nobody can
tamper with the data available in it.
l Data Storage and Management
The application once implemented to its optimum
capacity will act as a repository to store the complete
APAR information (including historical records)
with the officers’ basic information and the APAR’s
peripheral information like representation details.
The APAR itself is physically scanned and
saved to the memory. Thus, the APAR viewing will
be accessible on the click of a button as opposed to
locating the APAR. Moreover, handling of the physical
report is greatly reduced.
72
The application user-interface has been made
user-friendly in all aspects–be it data entry, modifications,
tracking or report generation.
l APAR Tracking (Search and retrieval)
e-APAR software provides “At a glance” picture of year
wise, unit-wise as well as rank- wise status of pending,
missing and completed APARs, which will facilitate
timely up-dation of APARs dossiers by taking necessary
steps to fill the gap periods on account of non issuance
of NICs, etc.
l Report Generation
The application provides quick retrieval of data for
report generation. The reports include standard reports
such as all the historical APARs – or missing, unavailable
APARs with their status. The reports inter-alia provide
quick retrieval ‘Fact Sheet’ of an officer, which will
facilitate timely conduct of DPCs for promotion,
confirmation, grant of ACP/MACP/DACP, assessment
of suitability for award of IPM/PPM etc. The reports
generated can be exported to Excel, Word, PDF and
other popular file formats depending on the needs of
the department or be printed directly.
l Alert and notification
The software has an inbuilt system of generating autoalerts which would go to the officers concerned with
whom the APAR would be pending for more than the
specified time and thus would ensure better monitoring
of the writing of APAR.
l Enhanced Transparency
The progress of the APARs and their status will be
available to the officers at different levels in the workflow
hierarchy of filling and submission process.
l Increased accountability
e-APAR solution will facilitate effective monitoring
and timely completion of performance appraisals
and will bring more probity, transparency and
accountability.
l Future Road Map
After successful implementation of prototype
e-APAR module, the next phase would be to up-grade
the module to facilitate transit from conventional
method of manual writing of APAR to Electronic
Process of online reporting, disclosure and
generating e-acknowledgement which would convert
the traditional paper-based format into a simple, costeffective process. 
