Scientist Alleges Harassment, Knocks on PMO Doors

by Sharan Poovanna Published: 27th April 2015 06:02 AM The New Indian Express
DRDO logo1BENGALURU: A senior scientist of a DRDO lab has knocked on the doors of the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), Defence Minister and Ministry of Defence among others over alleged harassment, torture and humiliation meted out to him by his superiors at the Aeronautical Development Establishment (ADE).

Though he has complained to the authorities, no action has been taken. Meanwhile, Raghavan (name changed), the G-category scientist who has over 30 years of experience, authored 180 technical papers and worked on almost all Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) projects of ADE, remains without an assignment for the last four months.

In his complaint, Raghavan alleged that ADE Director P Srikumar is trying to push junior scientists (below G category) to senior positions before he retires later this year. In two letters dated 31-1-2015 and 31-3-2015, Raghavan has told the Defence Minister and DRDO headquarters that “In order to promote some inefficient and less experienced individuals, I have been pushed out of ADE work. This is done due to partiality and favoritism”.

On December 8, 2014, the ADE Director signed a directive attaching Raghavan to ‘Project Ghatak’ at Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA), a nodal agency for design and development of the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA). But ADA has refused to accept the deputation as proper government approval and procedure was not followed, the scientist alleged.

When contacted, ADE director Srikumar said he was not aware of any such complaint. “This does not call for a story,” he said.

On April 9, the DRDO Director (Personnel) has forwarded the complaint back to ADE to resolve the matter. The status on the letter states ‘under process’.

“Since no justice is provided and harassment and insult continued, I made a formal representation to Director, ADE, ADG Aero, Scientific Adviser to Raksha Mantri, and Defence Minister through letter dated 21.1.2015. Till today, my grievance is not addressed and sorted out,” he stated.the new indian express 27 April

Defence Secrets in Danger

By Pradip R Sagar
Published: 26th Apr 2015 06:00:00 AM -The Sunday Standard
DRDO logo1It’s akin to contract killing of the country’s defence research establishments. With their easy access to classified and secret information, thousands of people working on contractual or temporary basis in India’s top secret defence projects have turned out to be the biggest threat to national security. A spate of arrests for spying has alarmed the government. But the country’s premier defence research agency—Defence Research and Development Organisation—has a strength of more than 50,000 temporary or casual employees who have complete access to all its classified and research activities.
The recent arrest of a photographer employed on contractual basis at DRDO’s Integrated Test Range in Chandipur (Odisha) for passing confidential information on various missiles test-fired from Wheeler Island to his ISI conduit in Kolkata has raised the alarm bells in the corridors of the Ministry of Defence (MoD).Sunday-Standard-26 April - 2May-2015 pic

Soon after, a contractual employee working for the MoD was picked up by the Delhi Police for espionage. The issue put South Block in panic mode and an alert was issued in March, which clearly said that ‘Contractual/ casual employees should not be posted in sensitive locations and not allowed to given access to the classified information’.
A senior defence ministry official recalled how a high-level inquiry was ordered during AK Antony’s tenure as defence minister in 2010 into the episode of giving out a critical missile design project to a private contractor by a top DRDO scientist.
Despite such cases in the past, over 55 laboratories of the DRDO, mandated to develop products and technologies to modernise our armed forces ranging from missiles to combat aircraft, have roped in over 50,000 casual employees to assist scientists. According to an insider, contractual employees are generally hired under two categories—technical and non-technical.Sunday-Standard-26 April - 2May-2015

 

 

Dr.Shashi Bala Singh life science scientist is inspired from Ms Anne Holt famous top detective of Europe

Dr.Shashi Bala Singh’s forgot DIPAS directorship and turned into lady detective after tussle with Dr.Gausal Azam Khan, Sc ‘D’ NRI quota. She is so egoist lady that she can not ready to digest any scientists reorganization especially those scientists   who are not ready to salute her in each and every occasion.

First she illegally approached conference organizer in Japan without taking DRDO Hqrs and Ministry of External affairs in confidence. The way she written e-mail to conference organizer like ask them where Dr.Gausal Azam Khan stayed, how many days he was in Japan, only thing she doesn’t ask that what he had eaten in Lunch/Dinner or where he prayed his Namaz.

She managed to serve charge sheet to Dr.Gausal Azam Khan with help of his great brother who is also a big manipulator. Now she is not leaving any stone unturned to catch Dr. Gausal Azam Khan, like searching his all procurements, bills,  movements, entry data in security, CCTV footage and finally creating false evidences by using two security guards with help of Security Officer Col  Rajiv Malhotra. Col Rajiv Malhotra and poor security guards may be not aware that Dr.Gausal Azam Khan already reported matter to Timarpur Police Thana and today is date in Tis Hazari court. Poor Dr.Shashi Bala Singh (DRDO’s Ms Anne Holt)

Dr S. Majumadar, Sc ‘G’ was trapped by DIPAS coterie only because their boss was afraid that Dr S. Majumadar, Sc ‘G’ may support Dr.Gausal Azam Khan. Dr.Shashi Bala Singh created history by transfer Dr Majumadar to DRDE so hurriedly, inquiry started 11: 00 Hrs and by 15:00 Hrs transfer order of Dr Majumadar, Sc ‘G’ was delivered to his hand. Again it was the made possible by his brother Dr A K Singh as he is Director of Personnel, DRDO Hqrs.

DIPAS chaplus gang started campaign against Dr Majumadar under direction of Dr.Shashi Bala Singh because such activities are not permissible in office campus. Some scientists and JRF was signed because of APAR season. This attempt was failed, now she is start harassing those JRF who gave affidavit in support of Dr S. Majumadar, Sc ‘G’, again a wrong move.

Dr S. Majumadar, Sc ‘G’ defeated both duo brother sisters by cancellation of his transfer order and joined INMAS on Monday 20 April 2015.

Dr.Shashi Bala Singh is not taking seriously the fate of Dr Arun Kumar, Ex DOP, Sh Avinash Chander, SA to RM, Dr S M Veerbhadrpa, Ex Director, DTRL, Smt. Chandra Banu, but she and her brother both are believes in Dr W Selvamurthy, Ex CC(R&D) HR who successfully went out scout free. Now time has change, government, minister, system changed only thing right time for action.

DRDO Assessment Buisness

Subject: Young and honest DRDO Scientists suffering from corruption/ nepotism/ favoritism in promotions.

Sir,

Since last 10 years it is observed that the assessments for promotion is become business for senior top scientists and lab directors. Every year the result of assessment pour frustrations among deserve scientists and only such scientist stays in DRDO who digest the promotions of incompetents and specially outstanding promotions of  those who are engaged for non scientific assignments.

DRDO brain drain is directly connected with DRDO assessment procedure. The RAC Director, Dr R K Jain himself an example of violation of FCS. His long tenure as Director RAC also proves the DRDO top managements are happy with his role.

Every year the entry of scientists especially by lateral entry is one of the main source of induction of their favorite ones by tailor made post advertisement. In this connection the complaints are piling with various GOI agencies.

The experts invitations are also a big game in these assessment, example in case of assessment of Dr A K Singh, most of time of his assessment same expert was called.

RAC, Director facilitate in this respect to lab directors/ cc/ DG’s to promote their beloveds through this mechanism and paint as fair assessments.

Sir, the following letter is received by website regarding assessment business of DRDO, forwarding for your perusal.

Corruption in SASE, DRDO, Chandigarh

To                                                                                                                13th April 2015                 Hon’ble Shri Manohar Parrikar,                                                                                                     Defence Minister,Room No -104,                                                                                                   South Block,New Delhi-110011

Subject: Corruption in SASE, DRDO, Chandigarh

Sir,

Some of DRDO scientists/officials are so expertise in corruption that they can squeeze money even from the scrap also.

Last year October 2014, SASE, DRDO tried to cleared his scrap material at J&K more than 100 tons.

The Firm M/s Jai Mata Trader, Chandigarh was awarded contract to lift the Iron scrap etc vide order no No MPG/Sale Order/2014-15/8212/01/Dis dated 17th July 2014.

The above order was given to lift 55000 Kgs @ Rs 23.92/Kg but as per SASE store records the vendor only lifted 37020 Kgs due to unavailability of trucks and labuors.

As per sources the six trucks loaded from scrap site out of six trucks, Five (5) trucks were caught and detained by J&K Police in Ramban Police station for the charge of overloading etc, the FIR was registered all formalities were done and case is pending in the court, J&K

M/s Jai Mata Trader, Chandigarh lifted 37020 Kgs and paid only Rs 907122.00 to SASE, DRDO Six trucks loaded (over loaded).

It means each truck lifted 6170 Kg scarp only then how can these trucks were detained by J&K police for overloading charges.

Sir, if DRDO weighing scale is such a way calibrated then you can imagine the fate of data we are receiving from SASE, DRDO, will our services march with these data, it is big question?

Sir, Sh Ashwagosh Ganju, Sc G, Director, Snow & Avalanche Study Establishment is new in corruption business but few of his aides are master in this field, the scale for judging individuals corruption capacity in DRDO is that the profile, if the person got so many DRDO in house awards without contributing anything like papers published in international journals /patents etc or member of Dr V K Saraswat’s favorite society. It means he possess the doctorate of corruption. In case of Sh Ashwagosh Ganju, he is only member of Dr V K Saraswat’s favorite society.

Sir, It is requested that please take a appropriate action to protect one of the important lab of DRDO which is very useful to combat natural calamities, but corruption is  gradually percolate in SASE, will send you more after homework.

Regards
