After a gap of several months, DRDO has finally got a new leadership with Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar pushing through a new concept to divide the top post into two parts.

After a gap of several months, DRDO has finally got a new leadership with Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar pushing through a new concept to divide the top post into two parts.

The government on Thursday appointed S Christopher who heads the centre for airborne systems as the new Director General of DRDO with the rank of a secretary.
Splitting the top post, the government also appointed the younger GS Reddy – a missile scientist – as the scientific advisor to the defence minister. Reddy will directly report to Parrikar and will be the pointsman for the minister for defence research projects.

Both top officials have got a term for 2 years, though Reddy is expected to continue after that and would be a contender for top job of DG DRDO.
The new appointments come after DRDO chief Avinash Chander was removed from his post in January with Parrikar saying that the government wants to have a new, younger leadership for the organisation.

The splitting of the post ks first among a series of structural changes that are expected at DRDO in coming months.

It is still not clear how the responsibilities will be divided among the two as the ministry has not come out with a detailed notification.

Both officials are expected to be based in Delhi.

  5. Some other projects related to installation of Green Houses were also completed by DRL, Tezpur with following details.DRL GH cvc table 2DRL GH cvc table 3

Installation of two Green Houses at DRL, Dett. At Tawang

DRL, Tezpur has two detachments in Arunachal Pradesh. One is at Salari, 190 km from Tezpur and another at Tawang, 380 km away from DRL, Tezpur. DRL Dett., Tawang is situated at 10,000 Ft high from sea level. This area is very less of vegetation due to extreme cold climatic condition. Hence cultivation of vegetables in open environments is not possible.

DRL, Tezpur has installed one Green House at DRL, Dett., Tawang and another Green House in same location is under construction. In this Green House, varieties of vegetable nursery is being raised and are being supplied to those Green Houses installed in different army unit for making vegetables nursery is being raised and are being supplied to those green houses installed in different army unit for making vegetables seeding.

Gross irregularities and violation of Purchase Management 2006 took place in issuing of supply orders for construction and installation of Green Houses at DRL, Tezpur.

One case as case study is submitted herewith in which gross violation of purchase rules took place.DRL GH cvc table 4

(A)   Demand was initiated by Dr. RKR Singh, Technical Officer ‘C’ with following details:DRL GH cvc table 5

(B) Open Tender No. DRL/OT/13-14 was published in Newspapers and DRDO website with following details. DRL GH cvc table 7

(C) Based on the said open tender, supply order was issued with following details.DRL GH cvc table 8

 

(D)  Under Supply Order dated 26.12.2013, Job Completion Certificate was issued from DRL, Tezpur vide letter No. DRL/OT/HAR/11/13-14/S-73 dated with following details:DRL GH cvc table 9

(E)  Unique Power Systems is registered at Andhra Pradesh Commercial Tax Department with TIN – 37720549449 and date of registration 02-06-2014 under VAT and CST commodity MACHINERY, Works Contracts; ELECTRICAL TRANSFORMERS, SWITCH GEARS; MACHINERY SPARES, ALL KINDS OF CABLES; COPPER WIRE.

This vendor has its own website uniquepowersystems.in and Mr. Subbarao Ramisetty is proprietor of this firm. According to the information available on the website “Unique Power Systems” are a leading organization engaged in trading and supplying a variety of Electrical and Electronics Items. We have in store a technically superior range of Transmission Line, Substation, Insulator, Vacuum Circuit Breaker, Generator, Transformer, Speed Breakers, Flexible Cable and MCCB.

6. One Open Tender No. DRL/OT/14-15 was published in 2014 for 05 Green Houses with EMD Rs. 100,000. The demands were made in said open tender and case is under process.

IRREGULATIES AND VIOLATION OF PM 2006 IN CONSTRUCTION & INSTALLATION OF GREEN HOUSES AT DRL, TEZPUR

  • Very junior officer of rank Technical Officer ‘C’ was appointed as Project leader with only one member (STA) in the project which is major project activity of DRL, Tezpur. In past project of Green House more than Five Officer/staff were involved with senior most scientists as Project Head. Keeping only officials in such a big project smacks something wrong at end of Director/CFA.
  • RKR Singh, TO ‘C’ was not authorized to indent case of Rs. 50 L while other several senior scientists were available at DRL, Tezpur. This violates section 4.6.2 and 4.6.3 of PM 2006. Demands costing Rs 50 lakh and above: Initiation by Scientist E and above countersigned by project or group head.
  • The demand was initiated as well as countersigned by Dr. RKR Singh, TO ‘C’ and approved by Dr. Vijay Veer, Director. This violated the various sections of PM 2006.
  • Item cost was inclusive of taxes while as per PM 2006 all taxes should be separately calculated and added in basic cost of the item. Material cost, construction and installation cost should be mentioned separately.
  • In demand unit price was mentioned as Rs. 9,92,331.00 but how the indenter arrived at his cost. How he done cost estimation or he submitted any quotation in record for this cost. The figure of unit cost as mentioned by indenter is unrealistic and fabricated.
  • Board of Officers was not constituted for inspection of constructed Green Houses and handing over to users Amy Units. Issue Voucher should be issued to each Green House separately. Job completion report should be endorsed by Board of Officers.
  • Splitting of cases to keep demand cost with in financial powers of Director as in project of Rs. 4.18 crore small-small cases costing just below Rs. 50 L are initiated. Two open tenders no. DRL/OT/13-14 and DRL/OT/14-15 each costing Rs. 50 L was published within same project by splitting of the cases. One tender should be published to avoid splitting of cases and get better prices and consolidated demand should be raised for whole project as PDC was only 36 months. Hence PM 2006 was grossly violated by Dr. Vijay veer, Director/CFA.
  • As per PM 2006 the Supply Order should be signed for and on behalf of ‘President of India’ in DRDO.MM.16 but this section of PM 2006 was grossly violated by Dr. Vijay Veer, Director/CFA. The supply orders issued by DRL, Tezpur are not in format DRDO.MM.16 and these SO are not signed for and on behalf of India, which is very serious matter as per PM 2006.
  • Cost Estimation not made properly figure of unit price is unrealistic.
  • TEC Report was ignored and parameters effecting installation of Green House like soil testing, wind speed, altitude etc not considered by Director and TPC done without clearance of TEC Report.
  • Gross violation of Purchase Rules, Supply Order not in proper format signed on behalf of Director, DRL, Tezpur, TO ‘C’ is not authorized to indent case up to Rs. 50 L. No sales tax, service tax or VAT charged and prices were inclusive of all taxes. Service tax Registration Number.

7.    The departmental action under CCS(CCA) Rules 1965 and PC Act 1988 may kindly be initiated against Vijay Veer, Director, DRL, Tezpur for said misconduct and misuse of power.

In light of above  facts and evidences it is  requested to CVC to setup a high level inquiry to inspect the procurement process and violation of PM 2006 at DRL, Tezpur by Dr. RKR Singh, TO’C’ and Dr. Vijay Veer , Director in construction and installation of all these Green Houses.

HT Correspondent, Hindustan Times, New Delhi| Updated: May 26, 2015 00:59 IST
Radar specialist S Christopher has emerged as the frontrunner to take over as the next chief of the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).

Christopher heads the Bengaluru-based Centre for Airborne Systems and heads the project to develop airborne early warning and control systems.

The post has been vacant since January 31 when the government terminated then chief Avinash Chander’s contract.

G Satheesh Reddy, who heads the Hyderabad-based Research Centre Imarat, and Anil Datar, chief of Pune-based Armament and Combat Engineering cluster, were also in the running. The government will appoint a scientific advisor to the defence minister after the DRDO vacancy is taken care. Both roles were being essayed by the DRDO chief so far.

ACC Appointment

The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet has approved the assignment of additional charge of the post of Secretary, Department of Defence Research and Development to Shri G. Mohan Kumar, IAS (OR:79), Defence Secretary for a period of three months or till a regular incumbent is appointed or till further orders whichever is the earliest w.e.f. 25.5.2015. __________________________________________________________

It means GOI in no mood to offer responsibility to above three stalwarts of DRDO.

May be Parrikar Shahib received bunch of Anonymous letter in which the DRDO officials exposes their great achievements like connections with suppliers / vendors, their encouragement towards incompetent beloveds, their technical compatibility, managing their in house awards, specially their patronage and soft corner to some one special  like Sh Avinash Chander pattern.

We request to PMO, MoD this time they should take care all above,  IB clearance, clear vision, original subject knowledge,  not deemed private universities credentials,  most important is the feedback from younger scientists because they are future of DRDO and they need fearless environment to grow so they can able to deliver their best.

To,                                                                                           Date – 25th May 2015                         Shri Manohar Parikar                                                                                                                       Defence Minister                                                                                                                               Room No -104 South Block,                                                                                                           Ministry of Defence                                                                                                                           New Delhi-110011

SUBJECT: IRREGULARITIES IN APPOINTMENT OF MS. SHWETA SINGH, JRF and SRF AT DEFENCE RESEARCH LABORATORY (DRL), TEZPUR BY DR. VIJAY VEER, DIRECTOR, DRL, TEZPUR, DRDO, MIN. OF DEFENCE

Sir,

Within last 10 years a bunch of DRDO officials running DRDO with their own made rules whether it is related of procurements or recruitments like the following case of recruitment of Ms Sweta Singh as JRF/SRF in DRL, DRDO, Tezpur by  Dr. Vijay Veer, Director is a small example of manipulations in GOI laid down rules.

  1. Defence Research Laboratory (DRL), Tezpur (Assam) is an establishment under Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO), Ministry of Defence.
  2. Vijay Veer, Scientist ‘G’ is Director, DRL, Tezpur with effect from 01 March 2012. Prior to him Dr. Lokendra Singh was Director of this establishment since the year 2010 to 28 Feb 2012.
  3. A.K. Singh is Director (Personnel), Dte. Of Personnel (DOP) at DRDO HQ, DRDO Bhawan, New Delhi with effect from 01 Dec 2012 and prior to this he was posted as Director, DHRD at DRDO HQ from Oct 2010 to 27 Feb 2013.
  4. A.K. Singh, Director (Personnel) hails from Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh which is evident from his IPR available at DRDO website. Copy of IPR is attached as Annexure No. -1.
  5. Shri Virendra Pal Singh (V.P. Singh) who is an official of Arunachal Pradesh, Government also hails from Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh.
  6. Lokendra Singh, Dr. Vijay Veer and Dr. RKR Singh, TO ‘C’, Estate Officer and Shri V.P. Singh are good friend and know each other very well as Shri V.P. Singh regularly staying at DRL, Guest House, Tezpur since past several years while he is not an DRDO/Service employee and no office/project of Arunachal Pradesh Government is existing at DRL, Tezpur. The rent of VIP suits at DRL, Guest house is only Rs. 50 -100 while the same accommodation at Hotel in Tezpur is about Rs. 2000-2500. The reasons why Dr. Lokendra Singh, Ex-Director, DRL and Dr. Vijay Veer, Director, DRL giving such kind of privilege to Shri V.P. Singh is matter of investigation?
  7. Even the Arunachal Pradesh Government Vehicle with Registration No. AR 01E 0879 is regularly parked at House of Dr. RKR Singh, TO ‘C’, Estate Officer, DRL, Tezpur. The same Government vehicle was also found in New DRL Guest House. The Photograph of Vehicle No. AR 01E 0879 of Arunachal Pradesh Government parked at New DRL Guest House is attached as Annexure No. -2.
  8. A.K. Singh, Director(Personnel) , DRDO HQ is holding sensitive posts continuously since past 8 years as Director, CEPTAM, Director, DHRD and Director(Personnel), which is against CVC Guidelines. I have filed three complaints against him to PMO & MOD on charges of Corruption. He was holding the post of Director, DHRD from October 2010 – 27 February 2013. DHRD is responsible for recruitment of JRF, SRF and Research Associates in various DRDO establishments and formulates guidelines for their appointments etc.

This complaint is regarding irregular appointment of Ms. Shweta Singh D/o Shri V.P. Singh, Aligarh as Junior Research Fellow (JRF) followed by  Senior Research Fellow (SRF) with two years extension by Dr. Vijay Veer, Director, DRL, Tezpur and extra payment of stipend while she was absent from DRL, Tezpur for about one year.

Brief Facts of the Case

  1. Shweta Singh, d/o Shri V.P. Singh was appointed as Junior Research Fellow (JRF) at DRL, Tezpur for a period of two year with effect from 03.10.2011 to 02.10.2013. She joined at DRL, Tezpur on 03.10.2011 and posted at Pharmaceutical Technology Division.
  2. Shweta Singh was getting stipend of Rs. 16000/- month from DRL, Tezpur. She remains absent/highly irregular at DRL, Tezpur during January 2013 to December 2013. Meantime she got married on 28 November 2013 at Aligarh (Uttar Pradesh). She joined back at DRL, Tezpur on 13 January 2014.
  3. In reply to one letter from Admin Division of DRL, Tezpur, Dr. P. Chattopadhyay, Group Head, Pharmaceutical Technology Division informed to Director, DRL, Tezpur vide his letter dated 07-10-2013 on Subject “Absent of Ms. Shweta Singh, JRF, Pharmaceutical Technology Division absent from 8th July 2013” stating thereby That “I am inform you that Ms Shweta Singh, JRF, Pharmaceutical Technology Division absent from 8th July 2013”. Copy of the letter dated 07.10.2013 is annexed as Annexure No. -3.
  4. On direction of Dr. Vijay Veer, Director, DRL, Ms. Shweta Singh, JRF got full stipend of the period while she was absent from DRL, Tezpur. Some complaint and RTI were filed by some persons in the matter therefore under pressure of PCDA, Dr. Vijay Veer ordered to Admin & Finance division to recover one month stipend from her. Rs. 17600/- was recovered vide letter 51/13/AE dated 28/10/2013. Copy of the letter No. 51/13/AE dated 28/10/2013 is annexed as Annexure No. -4. The same amount was deposited by Ms. Shweta Singh vide Chq. No. 508551 dated 8/5/2014. Copy of the letter dated 08/05/2014 sent from Mrs. Shweta Singh, SRF to Director, DRL regarding “Return of Excess Payment”, is annexed as Annexure No. -5.
  5. I submitted an application under RTI Act 2005 dated 26 July 2014 in the matter of Ms. Shweta Singh, JRF to CPIO, DRDO HQ, New Delhi but till date CPIO, DRDO did not replied. Copy of the application under RTI Act 2005 dated 26 July 2014 is attached as Annexure No. -6.
  6. Detailed attendance sheet of Ms. Shweta Singh from Biometric Punching Attendance System of said period may establish her long absence from DRL, Tezpur. But extra payment for only one month and three days of stipend was recovered from her by DRL, Tezpur on direction of Dr. Vijay Veer. Due to expose of the matter, DRL stopped her stipend with effect from 03 October 2013. Till date she did not get any stipend from DRL, Tezpur.
  7. As per the DO-II No. 07 dated 20.04.2012, her tenure for JRF was automatically ended on 02.10.2013. She was absent in month of October 2013 but Dr. Vijay Veer gave another big favor to her. He constituted an Assessment Committee consisting of three senior officers namely Dr. H.K. Gogoi, Scientist ‘F’, Shri Indrajeet Baruah, Scientist ‘F’ and Dr. P. Chattopadhyay, Scientist ‘D’  vide DO-II No. 07 dated 25.04.2014 to gave extension of one year to Fellowship of Ms. Shweta Singh, JRF with retrospective effect from 03.10.2013 while she was not present during said period in DRL, Tezpur and appointed her as SRF. Copy of the DO-II dated 25.04.2014 is annexed as Annexure No. -7. It was mentioned in said DO-II dated 25.04.2014 that “Extension of tenure of fellowship of the above named individual with effect from 3rd October 2013 for one year as per recommendation of the Assessment Committee held on 24th March 2014 at DRL, Tezpur”.
  8. As per DHRD, DRDO guidelines  extension for one year can only be provided to a JRF candidate after his/her presentation before Assessment Committee constituted by Director well before the expiry of tenure of 02 years of the JRF.
  9. It is big manipulation and conspiracy that Ms. Shweta Singh never appeared before the Assessment Committee and she got extension of one year with retrospective effect by Assessment Committee vide DO-II No. 07 dated 25.04.2014. The said Assessment Committee was constituted by Dr. Vijay Veer, Director, DRL, Tezpur in the March 2014, which held the meeting on 24 March 2014.
  10. The recommendation of the Assessment Committee was approved by Dr. Vijay Veer, Director and Ms. Shweta Singh got extension for fellowship as SRF for one year from 03.10.2013 to 02.10.2014 vide DO-II No. 07 dated 25.04.2014.
  11. Surprisingly, while tenure of Ms. Shweta Singh, JRF was automatically ended on 02 October 2013 vide DO-II NO. 07 dated 20.04.2012, then why Dr. Vijay Veer allowed her to work in DRL, Tezpur till April 2014 and gave ex-post-facto sanction without any authority?
  12. Shweta Singh got married on 12 November 2013 and She was absent during the period from 03 October to 12 January 2014, then why DRL, Tezpur allowed her to join at DRL, Tezpur while her tenure was ended automatically on 02.10.2013?
  13. Extension for fellowship with retrospective effect is completely illegal as (i) Tenure of JRF remains only for two years, it cannot be extended in case of Ms. Shweta Singh as her term expired on 02 October 2013. (ii) With back date appointments/extensions to fellowship are not permissible under any rule of DRDO and GOI.

Hence extension to fellowship wef 03 October 2013 for one year by order dated 25.04.2014 is totally illegal and irregular. It should be cancelled.

  1. She was getting stipend of Rs. 16000/- per month as JRF and Rs. 18000/- per month as SRF.
  2. Under pressure of complaint to PCDA and RTI Application to CPIO, DRDO, DRL, Tezpur stopped the payment of her stipend with effect from 03 October 2014 up to till date. But to favor Ms. Shweta Singh, Dr. Vijay Veer ordered Finance Division to make bill for payment of stipend to Ms. Shweta Singh and accordingly a bill of approximately Rs. 2,12,439/- was made and sent to PCDA, New Delhi in February 2015 vide DRL letter No. 30/PAS/JRF/SRF/2014-2015 dated 02.02.2015. Copy of the bill sent to PCDA, New Delhi is annexed as Annexure No. -8.
  3. PCDA returned the said bill with following objections: (i) To submit attendance sheet of the Ms. Shweta Singh, (ii) Authority letter by which she was appointed as SRF by Director, DRL, Tezpur vide their letter dated 16.03.2015. Copy of the letter received to DRL, Tezpur dated 16.03.2015 from Accounts Officer, PCDA, Delhi is annexed as Annexure No. -9.
  4. Despite the above incidences, Dr. Vijay Veer again constituted Assessment Committee in November 2014 comprising of HK Gogoi, Scientist ‘F’, Dr. P. Chattopadhyay, Scientist ‘D’ , Dr. SN Dutta, Scientist ‘C’ and Shri S. Doley, TO ‘D’. This committee has a meeting on 24.11.2014 and recommended the 6 months extension to Ms. Shweta Singh, SRF for the fourth year. The minutes of the meeting was approved by Dr. Vijay Veer, Director, DRL, Tezpur on the same day 24.11.2014. Copy of the Minutes of Assessment Committee is annexed as Annexure No. -10.
  5. DRL, Tezpur has not submitted any reply to objections of PCDA till date and she did not get any payment since January 2014 to till date from DRL, Tezpur.
  6. Vijay Veer, Director, DRL, Tezpur is running this JRF-SRF business since his joining at DRL, Tezpur and normally per year 10-12 candidates being appointed by irregular means. Recently in the year 2014 and 2015 more than 25 vacancies were advertised. This year Interview going to held on 19 May 2015. Copy of the advertisement for the year 2014 and 2015 for recruitment of JRF, SRF and RA are annexed as Annexure No. -11 and Annexure No. -12.

Irregularities and Corruption by Dr. Vijay Veer in appointment of Shweta Singh, JRF

  1. Vijay Veer, Director, DRL, Tezpur unduly favored Ms. Shweta Singh and gave her an illegal extension in fellowship with intent to get pecuniary advantage to her by misusing his official position.
  2. Not only to her, Dr. Vijay Veer is giving high privileges to his father Shri V.P. Singh by allowing him to stay at DRL, Guest House since long time.
  3. This act of Dr. Vijay Veer amounts conspiracy against Government with ill motives to make a loss to public money and gave financial benefit to Ms. Shweta Singh by misusing his powers and official position by gross violation of DRDO Guidelines.
  4. Vijay Veer is attempted to make a payment of about Rs. 2,12,439/- in lump sum to Ms. Shweta Singh despite knowing her extension to fellowship was illegal.
  5. The said misconduct and misuse of power for giving pecuniary advantage to Ms. Shweta Singh, JRF by Dr. Vijay Veer, Director, DRL, Tezpur comes under section 13.(1)(d) of Prevention of Corruption Act 1988.

In light of above evidences it is  requested to you Sir,  issue appropriate direction to Secretary, DRD, South Block, New Delhi to:

  • Cancel the appointment order of Ms. Shweta Singh as JRF and SRF at DRL Tezpur and stop her payment till finalization of the complaint.
  • Not to award Ph.D. degree to Ms. Shweta Singh as her appointment as SRF is illegal and she was absent during her tenure as JRF in 2013.
  • Issue order to recover extra payment from Ms. Shweta Singh which DRL, Tezpur paid to her while she was on long absent from DRL, Tezpur for more than one year.
  • Setup an enquiry against Dr. Vijay Veer under CCS (CCA) Rules 1965 and Prevention of Corruption Act 1988 to give undue favour to Ms. Shweta Singh, SRF, DRL, Tezpur.
  • Cancel the recruitment process of JRF and SRF in DRL, Tezpur for the year 2015.

Subject: J&K HC orders FIR against teacher who fails to write essay on cow- DRDO having hundreds of such cases where DRDO officials don’t have recognized certificates/diplomas/degrees

Sir,

It is observed that DRDO has a 30000 strong scientific and technical force and but unfortunately output is not corresponding with manpower strength, it is exceptionally very low in compare to any other organizations or corporate.

Reports are showing so many reasons and excuses for achievements in development of technology like inadequate allotment of budget, unavailability of latest components and systems from developed countries, not given free hand for procurement, not giving free hand for recruitments of manpower etc.

One of the real reasons is incompetency in lower level to higher level of DRDO organization.

If you see the level and quality of qualification of DRDO, a 30000 strong scientific and technical force you will see a very unbelievable scenario.

The real qualified manpower who are having a certificate/diplomas/degrees/post doctoral research/ having good number of published papers in national and international journals/ having name patents but under pressure put their bosses name or bosses blue eyed names without contribution/researchers are doing PhD’s under them, all these kind officials fail to get proper growth in DRDO. Such Skilled officials, if their family commitment allows, then the first thing they do is quit DRDO. Otherwise they accept the current scenario as their destiny.

The officials who have the manipulated certificates/diplomas/degrees/post doctoral research in private deemed universities where they are instrumental to in siphoning the DRDO funds in the name of CARS, Grants-in-Aid. Grants-in-Aid Scheme: Research sponsored in academic institutions under the extramural research (ER) etc / having good number of published papers but as a second, third fourth author, patents in their name but forcefully entered their names etc. These kinds of DRDO officials are at the top of DRDO each and every where.

Sir, unfortunately this is the real harsh situation of DRDO, since we are feeling that you are in the process of revamping DRDO, so this is the real time to look and check even verified from out sourcing like the corporate world is adopted before giving responsibility to someone because you are giving a free hand to spend 10000 cr taxpayers money, the educational professional background of each and every DRDO officials.

Any qualification enhancement from DIAT, Amity, JNTU, Shoolini University and other private deemed universities are mostly by manipulations. DIAT governed by DRDO, rest all private deemed universities from last 15 years enjoying lot of funds from DRDO in the name of CARS, Grants-in-Aid. Grants-in-Aid Scheme: Research sponsored in academic institutions under the extramural research (ER) etc and freely distributing all kind of qualification M Tech, MBA’s, lot unrecognized subject P h D’s and private university self designed degrees/diplomas.

When you will see the data of these DRDO officials you will automatically realize the reason of failure of DRDO.

Sir, above subject’s court decision attracted me to write this letter that I have collected so many evidences of forge qualification evidences of DRDO officials, and as per DOP, DRDO, Dr A K Singh’s letter it is clearly established such acquired qualification were not even verified and encouragement money was also distributed to hundreds of DRDO officials.

Sir, it is requested in the national interest through study is required from outside agency GOI can decide before allotting funds for projects whether the DRDO officials qualified and capable and they are having background knowledge of proposed projects, till date country is witnessing DRDO’s technology demonstration drama which they are able to display with the fully support from outside firms Indian or international.

If you want the evidences which I have collected in last 10 years, I am ready to provide.

J&K HC orders FIR against teacher who fails to write essay on cow

Leave a comment

PTI | May 16, 2015, 03.39 PM IST – Times of India
SRINAGAR: The J&K High Court made a teacher write an essay on cow and solve a class IV maths problem in an open court and ordered slapping a case against him when he failed, inviting strong observations from the judge who wanted “soulless” authorities to close down education “tuck shops”.

The direction came yesterday when Justice Muzaffar Hussain Attar was hearing a petition challenging appointment of Mohammad Imran Khan as Rehbar-e-Taleem (education guide) teacher in a school in south Kashmir.

The petitioner had alleged that Khan’s certificates — issued by Board of Higher Secondary Education Delhi and Global Open University, Nagaland were not recognised. The marksheet issued to the respondent by the Board of Higher Secondary Education Delhi showed he had secured 74 per cent, 73 per cent and 66 per cent in Urdu, English and Maths respectively.

The court asked a senior counsel to give a simple line for translation from English to Urdu and vice-versa but the teacher failed.

The teacher was then asked to write an essay on ‘cow’ in Urdu, but he failed. Khan sought permission to write the essay outside the court room, which was granted but he failed again.

Khan, who claimed he had better hold on Mathematics, was then asked to solve a maths problem for 4th graders.

As he failed yet again, a visually perturbed Justice Attar said,”In this situation, what would be the fate of the state has to be only visualised. The school going children ….would pass out as blockheads.”

“The authorities, responsible to ensure that the stream of academics and education is not polluted in the state of J&K, however, in view of the facts, which have surfaced in this case, have acted as soulless bodies with ray-less eyes, as they have criminally condoned and over-looked the Himalayan blunders committed in procuring the academic degrees,” the court observed.
