ii) CPIO, DEAL Letter DEAL/RTI/2010/Misc dated 29th June 2010 Para – 4 information completely denied (Copy enclosed)
7. Brief facts of the case:
Why did they call it sensitive? I never asked the project details, I only asked for the procurement details and they can’t be sensitive, because they are procured from an open market with tender.
Dr A.S Bains, then Director, DEAL, DRDO, Dehradun, when appointed in DRDO at DRDL, Hyderabad, who did the police verification? The Shah Times News Report (Copy enclosed) says that he might be relation with “Babar Khalsa” terrorist outfit, who was active in Punjab insurgency and had Hqrs in England.
The money minted by Dr. A. S. Bains with few of his close associates by establishing these fake firms might be used for supporting terrorist outfits. At that time Dr. A. S. Bains was the Director, DEAL; orders were placed with these firms for the supply of items in quantity with enormously high prices and siphoned the precious foreign currency.
DRDO Hqrs since the expose of this case has come under pressure and has declared the purchase made, as sensitive. The officers who were Scientist ‘C/D’ during that period, were given out of turn promotions as reward to conceal the facts. Sh. R.P. Dixit, Sc’G’ and holding presently the charge of CFA in DEAL, Sh.S.C Jain Sc’G’ due to retirement has been given two years extension. Dr. K.D.Nayak Sc ‘H’, CC R&D and Sushil Verma, Sc’F’ were involved and were the master designer of these procurement from fake firms and as well as concealing the facts.
Dr. V.K.Atre, then SA to RM has a very close association with Dr.AS Bains, in fact Dr.Atre made him member of Sh. Arun Singh committee on defence expenditure, when I brought the facts of Dr.AS Bains to then NSA, Sh Brijesh Mishra personally. Dr.AS Bains was removed by each and every committee and was confined to DEAL only until he retired.
The appellate authority of DRDO, Dr. Prahlada is committed to protect Dr. A
S Bains and go to any extent to conceal the facts.
Only an independent agency is therefore required to investigate the total no of procurements cases / supplies under place with these fake firms and identify those culprits who still protecting the criminals.
During US sanction the uses of Custom Duty Exemption Certificates by these firms is required to be investigated, because to see the proximity with Dr.AS Bains the CDE’s might be used for benefiting terrorist outfits of Punjab.
i) Both firms did business only with DEAL, Dehradun and belongs to one person Lt.Col Deepak Badhwar, Resident of 37/7, Vijay Colony, Dehradun ( IB revealed and IB report is enclosed)
ii) He is a good friend of Dr. A. S. Bains’s (then Director DEAL, Dehradun) ( News paper revealed copy enclosed)
iii) Dr. A. S. Bains (then Director DEAL, Dehradun) is a mysterious personality and might be link with terrorist as per news paper report (Paper cutting enclosed)
iv) As per Tender Procurement Committee the supplied were state of art components/devices and were in the critical list of post US sanctions.
v) So question is whether both firms used CDE or not because they cannot import these items from US due to sanction.
vi) It is the larger possibilities that with bonding with Dr. A. S. Bains the CDE might be used for support to terrorist outfit.
Dr. A. S. Bains (then Director DEAL, Dehradun) aim was to damage the organization’s financial deals and help his friends, who were parting the hefty commission/omission. Example – a purchase of Digital display Synthesizer (DDFS) which was required for Composite Net Radio (CNR a prestigious project of DEAL), he directed project in-charge to put his friend’s company’s name (M/S Wave Components & Systems, 1409 W, Woodcrest, Fullerton CA 92833, USA) in the quotation enquiry. The best part of that the firm’s rep supplied the item in person (in the shape of scrape which is still lying with CNR project) at DEAL’s gate well before the quotation’s opening date and with item there were no papers enclosed that the items were imported from US. The plea was given by firm’s rep that his luggage was stolen at airport. It can be verified with DEAL’s gate records. The matter was exposed by me, the file was closed but he had to give money to his friend, so again a new file was raised as per direction in proprietary base case with new nomenclature as DDES instead of DDFS, order were placed to US, LC opened, money was drawn but the item were not send from US. As expected that he had already delivered back at DEAL’s gate. After two years RBI asked for FE settlement, and then DEAL asked the firm to send anything against the said supply. But because of the Pokhran Blast, US sanction was imposed and company was not able to supply, but again they adopted DRDO’s Scientist gimmicked and arranged locally, a bogus airway bill no and with empty box they deposited via their Delhi based firm by courier. They forget that they established a relation between a firm and later on in other quotation they used this firm as their competitive.

Fullertone, CA- 92833
Residence of Mr.ManiKant Takur as per US municipal records
i) Mr. Manikant Takur has accepted that he is good friend of Dr.A.S.Bains to Tahalka Correspondent Mr. Shashi
ii) The above firms received crores of rupees order from DEAL. The origin and existence of this firm is also mysterious.
iii) The firms deals with only DEAL, Dehradun
iv) The firms have no dealership of any manufactures
v) The firm does not have a single leaflet/brochure’s/any professional existing document which proves that they are very well in the business later on due course of CBI inquiry they generated few but they found bogus.
vi) The firm supplied MMIC components/Li batteries, quartze crystal etc. It shows big variation in business field
vii) The firm always asked for splitting the order because to avoid FERA and other agencies who normally not bother for small transactions.
viii) The asked for change the nomenclature of the items so it can help to fool, financial member, custom authorities and US commerce department.
ix) Not a single fruitful output was generated by DEAL by using items supplied by said firm. If one can go for physical verification will find the only scarp, in case of 35 GHz Down Converter the CBI, Dehradun was found that out of 150 nos half were not working, some odd 20+ were pasted without use or any output and some they said were given to Project Trishul (i.e 18 GHz project not 35 GHz) and rest to CERI, Pilani. It is a complete eyewash.
x) What was the DEAL’s gain, all scientists who helped in procurement got outstanding reports and got promotions the main example Dr.KD Nayak presently holding post of CC R&D and Mr. Sushil Kumar Verma presently Sc ‘F’ and recently posted to DRDO Hqrs with Dr KD Nayak, so they can again create a new gimmick.
After Pokhran Blast all pending orders of M/S Wave Components & Systems, 1409 W, Woodcrest, Fullerton CA 92833, USA were converted in RE and diverted to garment and rice exporter firms belongs to Dr. Bains landlord Lt Col Deepak Badhwar.

Dr. AS Bains also violated the govt. rules by asking quotation from US based firms during US sanctions for just route the money of poor tax payers of India. Anyone can imagine the quotations are coming from US and TPC reflecting in the minutes these companies are well known firms in their field based on the DEAL’s procurement records.
Sir, have any finance rep ever asked about the credential of any firms or verify with any other lab or source, I can understand the pressure on other TPC members because they are from DRDO and always worried for their carriers.
Under the forging details there is no room to allow the culprits to go scot free. Anyone asks details from various investigation agencies who have worked in this respect and are perplexed. Please contact Major Chetri, then in-charge, MI, Dehradun, Mr. Bist, then SP, CBI, Dehradun, IB, Dehradun, Director, CAG, Dehradun.

i) It is clear cut case of corruption and national security interest.
