वैज्ञानिकों की भर्ती प्रक्रिया में बदलाव की सिफारिश

amar ujala 5 feb

देहरादून। डीआरडीओ (रक्षा अनुसंधान एवं विकास संगठन) में वैज्ञानिकों की भर्ती प्रक्रिया में बदलाव हो सकता है। सूत्रों की मानें तो सीवीसी (सेंट्रल विजिलेंस कमीशन) ने एक रिपोर्ट में डीआरडीओ में होने वाली वैज्ञानिकों की भर्तियां संघ लोक सेवा आयोग (यूपीएससी) की मदद से करवाने की सिफारिश की थी, जिस पर अब मंत्रालय में मंथन शुरू हो गया है। इसके साथ ही इससे पहले मौजूदा भर्ती प्रक्रिया की आईआईएम, इंडियन इंस्टीट्यूट ऑफ पब्लिक एडमिनिस्ट्रेशन, इंडियन एडमिनिस्ट्रेटिव स्टाफ कालेज जैसे किसी एक प्रतिष्ठित संस्थान से आकलन करवाने की सिफारिश भी सीवीसी ने की है।

उल्लेखनीय है कि बीते वर्ष मामले का खुलासा होने के बाद रक्षा मंत्री एके एंटनी ने सीबीआई जांच के आदेश दिए थे। सीवीओ (सेंट्रल विजिलेंस अफसर) की जांच रिपोर्ट में आरएसी के माध्यम से होने वाली भर्तियों पर सवाल खड़े किए गए हैं। मंत्रालय ने सीवीसी की रिपोर्ट पर नवंबर 2013 में सीबीआई को जांच सौंप दी है। सीबीआई को मामला सौंपने से पहले विजिलेंस ने अपने स्तर पर भर्तियों की जांच रिपोर्ट तैयार की है। बताया जा रहा है कि वैज्ञानिकों की भर्तियों में दो पूर्व डीआरडीओ प्रमुखों सहित अन्य अधिकारियों पर कथित धांधली के आरोप हैं, इसमें अपने रिश्तेदारों को नौकरी देने जैसे आरोप शामिल हैं। डीआरडीओ में संस्थान में वैज्ञानिकों के चयन के लिए अपनी अंदरूनी व्यवस्था है। डीआरडीओ में आरएसी के माध्यम से वैज्ञानिकों की भर्ती होती है।

यूपीएससी से होता था चयनः 80 के दशक तक यूपीएससी के माध्यम से वैज्ञानिकों का चयन होता था, जिसे दोबारा लागू करने की व्यवस्था फिर बन सकती है। डीआरडीओ अपने हाथ से भर्ती प्रक्रिया निकलने के पक्ष में नहीं है।amar ujala 5 feb1
