The Indian Air Force came in for a surprise today as the Nobel Foundation in Sweden nominated the Mig 21 for the Peace Prize in 2012, shortly after announcing Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Leymah Gbowee and Tawakkul Karman as winners for 2011. In a press release, the Nobel Foundation states “We would like
to appreciate the role of the IAF Mig-21 which is the most prominent aircraft to reject the notion of war by deciding to crash in entirety before any conflict arises, thus saving thousands of innocent lives. Unlike Barack Obama who was given the prize despite being at war with two countries, the Mig 21 is only at war with its inability to survive a flight.”
Indian defence analysts however were not amused. “This seems like an attempt by the Scandinavians to mock the equipment levels of the Indian Air Force. They are probably still peeved that the SAAB Gripen got rejected by the IAF for the 126 MMRCA fighter contract, and they’re using the Nobel Foundation as a front to publicly humiliate us. If they really had to award an Indian institution why not the DRDO which till date hasn’t made a defence product that works? Or why not Narendra Modi, whose fans would have you believe that the recently concluded Sadbhavna yatra is the biggest thing since the Dandi March?”
Left wing groups have called the announcement an imperialist conspiracy to destabalise India. Rita Menon, a prominent social activist who issues a lot of press releases that media houses throw in the trashcan without even looking said, “This is nothing but a technique for Scandinavians to penetrate the burgeoning Indian market like the white people who wanted to organize Miss World in 2006. India hasn’t given a shit about the Peace Prize ever since Gandhi didn’t get one. Mark my words, in five years they will get desperate and nominate Aamir Khan for building inter-faith peace and harmony”.

ii) TA
iii) DA
5. Total number of Scientist resigned from April 1990 – March 2010
6. Total number of scientist joined DRDO from April 1990 – March 2010
Why I asked this Information –
DRDO sends annually many officers for higher studies particulars to IIT’s and national Universities. The admission which granted normally after tough competitions are available to DRDO’s sponsored candidates was easily.
Aim of such higher studies is to use the academic platform to solve the complicate technical issues. DRDO in turn give the IIT’s or Universities sufficient grants against project and R&T schemes.
No one gets benefited neither the institutions nor the DRDO, it is because the most of the individuals after getting higher education working as admin, allied works, and the reaction of this most of them leave the organization. For example Dr.DP Singh, Estate Manager, Scientist ‘F’ did his post graduation and PhDs from DRDO sponsoring and performing duty of admin purely non scientific assignment. Sh A.K Musla, Sc ‘F, holding post Joint Director Admin in IRDE, Dehradun, he also did his B.Tech and M.Tech from DRDO sponsored funds and working as purely in admin. I am quoting only two names as tip of the iceberg, because in DRDO you will find 100 of such cases. DRDO is shear wasting the corers and corers rupees public funds in the name of higher education programs. Although, the aim and object of the higher education program is really good, but in hands of bad corrupt officials, the output is wasting by DRDO.
According to the ministry, a total of 1,107 scientists, mostly young entrants, have resigned from the DRDO between 2003 and 2007, implying that on an average one person leaves every two days.
What I have received
(a) The amount spent on Long Term Post Graduation Training Programme during 2008, 2009 and 2010 – 6,38,33,535/-
(b) The amount spent on PhD Programme under RT Scheme during 2008, 2009 and 2010 – 3,38,143/-

What I have asked in my RTI
The DRDO Awards Scheme, in its present form, was introduced in the year 1999 to motivate DRDO scientists, engineers and partners in industries and academic institutions in contributing for the cause of national security and self-reliance. The present Award Scheme, instituted by the Government of India, are therefore, meant to encourage DRDO scientists and our partners in the Private Sector Undertakings (PSUs), the private firms as well as the academic institutions in performing even better towards accelerating the pace of development of critical technologies, transfer of technologies from laboratories to industries as well as productionisation of the state-of-the-art defence systems
The Scheme consists of a total of 17 awards, out of which, 4 awards are given by the Directors of the concerned laboratories/establishments in recognition of outstanding contributions of their scientists and other supporting staff consisting of technical, administrative and allied cadres. The remaining 13 awards are decided at the DRDO HQrs for which nominations are called every year from all laboratories/establishments. The nominations are initially short listed by the Screening Committee under the chairmanship of the Chairman, Recruitment and Assessment Centre (RAC). The short listed nominations are, thereafter, examined by the Apex Committee for finalisation of the awards which also consists of two outside experts. These awards are normally given away by the Prime Minister of India on the “Technology Day” which falls on 11th May of every year.
In this connection it is requested to provide the following detail information
Total amount of investment made on DRDO awards year wise from 1st April 1999 to till date 2010
i) Total amount invested in arranging Award ceremony
ii) TA/DA on recipient of the awardees and spouse
iii) All categories of all cash award by all Laboratories/Establishments and DRDO Hqrs. during period of April 1999 to till date. In following format
Why I asked this Information –
The awards given by Government of India like Padma Award, Shanti Swaroop Bhatnager Award etc all these awards are given with an aim to encourage/motivate/ recognize the contribution of individual recipients and therefore it carries a citation.
DRDO constituted its awards like Scientist of the year, Young Scientist awards, Technology Leadership Award etc. with the aim to inculcate a culture of hard work, dedication, scientific achievements, and technology breakthrough leading to the technology development for national security.
But the award given in DRDO, the mode of selection, the encouragement to the scientific team does not rely on the standards.
Different rules for different occasion or different rules for different officer, the motto of DRDO or the definition of DRDO is suitably implemented..
The public would like to know the manner DRDO spending nearly 2 crores of rupees annually to these awards, the recipients does not know that he has been chosen for this award, there is no scientific presentation of technology. The recipients, are even unable to operate any scientific instruments like network analyzer, spectrum analyzer etc because most of awardees scientist or technical personals are working as Director Management Services, Head Material Managements, Security Officer, Library In-charge, Works In-charge and other suitable position from where they can feed their Akas(Boss).
If any one look in to the list of award recipients and analyses year wise, he will be find the most of citation actually not even justify the work or relation between award and awardees.
There is N number of examples available in various labs where most of awards were not justified; it is purely depending upon the Director’s choice. So nut shell DRDO awards are like ”Andha banten revari apne apne ko de” it is nothing doing with their contribution whether the awardees is related to technology or not. How come a person sitting in security, MT will entitled to get technology award, when DRDO having other awards for non technical working area.
It is really big question in front of country people?
Like in Kargil, one officer got gallantry award and later it was found that the fake encounter was staged for award. (Famous ketchup Colonel Case)
Same tactics is adopted by DRDO they are distributing awards to their own boys with fake technology propaganda.
Since money belongs to poor tax payers, when Padama award citation are available to citizen of India then how can DRDO deny give details in the name of schedule –II exemption.
One award Defence Technology Absorption Awardis using by DRDO for giving color to their pet firms. Anyone can judge from the recipients list that these firms are really worth does these firms have any significant signature in field of respective industry like M/s Resins & AlliedProducts, Vijayawada. received this award from Honorable Prime Minister Sh Man Mohan Singh is related to Dr. A. Subhananda Rao, CC R&D, Director, HEMRL)
What I have received
The total amount spent during 2008, 2009 and 2010 on the following Awards:
(a) Agni Award for excellence in self reliance – ‘ 75 Lakhs
(b) DRDO Award for Performance Excellence.- 60 Lakhs
(c) Scientist of the year Award — 60 Lakhs
(3) File No. CIC/LS/A12011/000385
What I have asked in my RTI
How many technical paper were published by DRDO Scientists in International Journals like Journal of Applied Physics, IEEE Transactions, Proceedings IEEE, Transactions IEE, Electronics Letter, SPICE etc. from 1990 to March 2010?
How many authors were awarded by DRDO for their contribution and keeping the flag of DRDO high
How many such authors were assigned the administrative task to lead the DRDO Labs as Director and then CC R&D?
How many such authors were left the DRDO during April 1990 to March 2010 period?
Why I asked this Information –
Almost 400 Corers of rupees are distributing through these boards and different DRDO projects to IIT’s, Universities’ and Colleges and even some NGO’s, in the name of expanding and deepening the knowledge-base, Enhancing core competence in the field of knowledge, To encourage and provide funds for basic research in pertinent scientific disciplines etc.
The most of funds distributed till date to maximum private universities and private institutions and especially in last ten years out of total grants has gone to southern states. DRDO in its charter of duty has specifically mentioned Kashmir to Kanyakumari and Gujarat to North East the equal opportunity will given to universities/institutions.
The DRDO is giving funding for various R&T projects with IIT’s, IIsc’s and various premier scientific institutions. In return DRDO sends annually many officers for higher studies particulars to IIT’s and national Universities.
The number of international papers can justify the real out of projects working with IIT, IIsc and other various institutions.
I am surprised that DRDO is deny for giving information related to paper publish in international journals, where is schedule-ii exemption is comes in between.
Information sought is already publish in journals, so why DRDO afraid to give information. It shows that DRDO is not respect for RTI Act 2005.
International publications are basically the most valuable achievement of any scientific institute /organization and it always proudly mentioned by each and every institute /organization.
What I have received
(a) Numbers of papers published by the Scientist of DRDO during last five years:
After taking his charge as CC R&D at DRDO Hqrs, how many days he stayed in DRDO Hqrs up to 31st March 2010
How many temporary duties to Hyderabad he had been with total stay at Hyderabad.
How much in total TA/DA he has drawn year wise from his joining as CC R&D at DRDO up to 31st March 2010.
With Reference to Shri RC Agarwal, Director DEAL, Dehradun
After taking his charge as Director DEAL, Dehradun , how many days he stayed in Dehradun up to 31st March 2010
How many temporary duties to Bangalore he had been with total stay at Bangalore
How much in total TA/DA he has drawn year wise from his joining as Director, DEAL up to 31st March 2010.
Why I asked this Information
The information sought for is not related to end senior officer in his individual/personal capacity but in his capacity being a public authority.
Too frequent visit to a particular destination on Government expenses require to justify and as to how much it was beneficial to the organization and how much to the officer especially when he belongs to that particular destination. It appears that the permanent residence is his Hqrs and place of posting is a temporary duty station. The frequent move availability of the officer in the Hqrs. station may lead to problem of command and control and discipline, which may hamper the progress and led to undue delay and time and cost overrun to ongoing projects of DRDO.
In this particular case I requested the TD details of Dr. Prahlada, Appellate Authority, CC R&D (Ae & SI) & DS, who is staying C-7 Qutab Enclave, DRDO guest house since his posting to DRDO Hqrs, for him most of time he took his breakfast in his Hyderabad residence and lunch in DRDO Hqrs and evening for dinner he was again back to his Hyderabad residence. Please see his TD detail and then decide.
Second one is Shri RC Aggarwal, Director DEAL, Dehradun, since his posting he use to out from DEAL, Dehradun almost more than 250 days out of 365 days. How can the armed forces expect trustworthy products from these so called senior scientists?
There more 9-10 CC R&D and Directors who are belongs to Hyderabad and Bangalore and their families are staying Hyderabad and Bangalore respectively and they all are staying in DRDO guest houses they are giving their residence address in telephone directory at DRDO guest houses and enjoying HRA also. They are frequent fliers, they all are already break the Milkha Singh ‘s (Flying Sikh of India) records and relishing without fear with TD with poor tax payers money.
What I have received
(a) Visits of Dr. Prahlada on official duty during 2009 & 2010. Number of visits to Hyderabad – 22
(b) Total amount of TA/DA drawn – 4,11,900/-
(c) Visits made by Shri R C Aggarwal on official duty during 2007 to 2010. Number of visits — 26
All of us pained by various letters and RTI proofs appearing on Internet about Corruption & Nepotism about DRDO. We are more pained that you both are keeping silent and no visible actions are being taken. The Villain (Selwamurthy) of DRDO is enjoying and he pushing his people on all fronts to destabilize and embarrass you. One fine example is Varshney who is controlling your office and passing minutely details to his Real BOSS-Selwamurthy.
The material appearing on Internet, may be some of them incorrect and exaggerated, but has created unrest in DRDO- Some are enjoying, some are pained and some, particularly younger lot, confused and feeling betrayed.
A special appeal to both, spare your 48 hours on some of the critical and burning issues and decide and give positive signal to all of us that you are impartial and truly committed towards growth of DRDO in a healthy manner. Don’t involve The Villain for this, he will only misguide you, we recognize both of you as our true guide and have confidence that you will take corrective actions which are visible across all section of DRDO. We all are waiting for ACTIONS and send us POSITIVE energy by your Impartial actions.. YOU ARE DUTY BOUND TO TAKE ACTIONS IMPARTIALLY.
Some of burning issues and suggestions are
NO MORE EXTENSIONS, except very deserving cases, not more than 2 to 3 per 6 month cycle. Extension is equal to death sentence, which is given on rarest of rare cases by our courts. Extension should be also based on principle of rarest of rare cases. If extension given to CV&E, LS, CEPTAM, it will be major joke on DRDO.
Review all extension cases already given, Act as Supreme court and commute certain cases of death sentence. Retire some of tainted and wrongly extension cases like of Selwamurthy, Mohan Rao, Arun Kumar, Jain, Agarwal RC, Narendra Kumar, and similar cases.
You have given charge of HR to very competent Chief Controller. But his Directors are still aligned to Pseudo-HR controller. Do complete overhauling of HR & DOP, it will correct many wrongs of Selwamurthy and his Chamchas who have destroyed basic fiber of DRDO. Let them keep making Mosquito repellent and Chapattis. Implement policy of change of DOP, RAC,DHRD, CEPTAM every 2 year and don’t just rotate them.
International Cooperation Controller should be person who had collaborated with different countries in his younger and middle carrier. A yoga teacher is just unfit for this job and using this as platform for self image enhancement.
Dr PS Goel should not be given Extension; the HARD fact is that he is only responsible for bringing moral of all scientists to deep sea low level.
Grass root level interaction of SA with middle and younger lot in different zones, on at least quarterly based. It will bring a Sea change if all are given free environment to discuss with their family head.
Accountability of Directors and Chief Controllers should be more aggressive and transparent. They should be answerable to all wrong done in their areas, including poor result in respect of deserving scientists in assessment due to non projection of their achievement in right manner.
Following is the contribution of honest, hardworking, sincere and sensitive government servants’ of DRDO, Ministry of Defence concern to national defence.
I acknowledge their sincerely and commitment towards uprooting the corruption, nepotism, favoritism prevailing in DRDO.

Aap Ki Adalat—Episode I (William)
Dear Viewers, Dr VKS was abroad, we invitedC, DRDO, The recording time was at 10 am and he reached our studio at 6 am after doing his Yoga. We appreciated his punctuality and fitness.
RS: Good morning viewers, please welcome Dr W Selvamurthy
WS: call me William, I like this
RS: First blame on
WS: God bless all of you, yoga is a must. If all 30 thousand workforce of ours learn yoga and take classes of 12 crores army Jawans, we will get visibility, publicity, negative forces will be removed. But no one listens to me. Doing science, it can be done in deep located Tamilnadu universities. We give 5 percent so far, I propose to increase it to 50 percent, PLEASE CLAP, money will be given only to unknown colleges and universities of Tamilnadu.
RS: The first blame on you is…
WS: Please WAIT, we will come to blame later, we should do innovations, our respectable SA has declared this year as Innovation year. I will give 3-4 innovations we did recently. First was done by me, I converted one admin lady officer into a senior scientist, SA was so happy with this innovation that I was given LIFE TIME ACHIEVEMENT award
RS: I say, you must get Noble prize, such a great innovation
WS: Yes, I should, can we discuss after shooting over. Tandon, our procurement expert. He innovated a novel method for keep track of a deal after negotiations are completed, for delivery of agreed He invented this in Kanpur but perfected in headquarters. He transferred this technology to all our lab directors, it is helping them lot. Goel (Chairman RAC) also felt that he has done very good science and promoted him in 4 years.
RS: Really Great Achievement
WS: AK Singh, our HR expert, har marz ki ek dava. He invented a mechanism how to recruit human resources along with side by side, a great achievement. Dr GoeI was not impressed with his great achievement, he feels RAC technology is much foolproof than his, but SA intervened and certified it is a very high caliber research. Shukia, I am not much aware about his achievement, but if Goel found him fit to be promoted in 4 years, he must have done GREAT SCIENCE. Goel cannot be wrong. MERIT (???) COMES FIRST is principle of Goel.
RS: First blame on
WS: Blame on me? I am God tearing person, no no i don’t fear about this Prabhu Dandriyal, But I am God fearing, no blame, yes, we can discuss
RS: you dream that you are the best person to become SA and for this you are destroying DRDO
WS: One must dream, Dr VKS is super genius SA. Arunachlam, Kalam, Atrey, Natrajan, all useless fellows. I will wait till he is 70
RS: You will also be 70? Also Dr VKS called you Badmash?
WS: Yoga Power, I will be SA for 5 years…….He is Great, I am his servant. I am happy he called me Badmash, does he call everybody Badmash? So, I am Special. We should do Great work like Dr VKS. We should support him for all his Great work. Good Pillai has gone, Prahlad has left, he needs my support and experience in fooling Ministers and Services. We are made for each other.
RS: Thank you, we will finish here
WS: Such a small episode? I have many innovations like SASTRA University money route and dreams to share
RS: Next time. Viewers thanks for joining us.
(Shooting stops. Dr WS asks RS, what about Noble Prize, what is best method, I will sanction a 1.00 crore project if it is Ok to get Noble Prize, but for this Noble cause help me)

RS: Last episode you praised William?
VKS: Keep guessing
RS: People are saying in last 2 years you have done more strategic mistakes than strategic missile launches. Any comments.
VKS: This Pillai is propagating these false news; nobody can beat me in this business, Pillai,Avinash, Prahlada, no one.
RS: Sir, all your lab Directors are ineffective in delivery, they are expert in Procurement, corruption. Nepotism…this is general impression in DRDO fraternity…
VKS: Why lab directors. I don’t agree, you see Tandon, Arun, Shukla, AK, all great Headquarter directors, they are true gems of ORDO
RS: How to reduce Corruption…
VKS: There is no corruption in DRDO, this is just myth of more than 90 percent of DRUG people that we are corrupt. Antony ji is supporting me, PM is supporting me, so where is corruption. All nonsense.
RS: Then why we are finding so many cases on Prabhu’s web site.
VKS: We hacked he site, but it reappeared, we will do something permanent about this.
RS: For removing corruption…

RS: Ok, can we discuss Rama Rao implementation?
VKS: Antony ji telling me to do some cosmetic changes. I will make CCs, but essential qualification will be they should be more than 62 years.
RS: Why Sir, more experienced?
VKS: No NOT they will be busy in their extension case, I will have all powers!! Ha Ha!.
RS: So Rama Rao implemented?
VKS: See last year I am empowered my dear Directors with enhanced financial powers, they are happy, so Rarna Rao is implemented. All are happy CCs, new DOs, Myself, my dear Directors..all are happy
RS: But what was main aim behind Rama Rao committee?
VKS: I am frank actually I have to refer back to his report to be specific. But we have to live in realities, so what I am doing is the best for DRDO and my missile complex people. Again I am thankful to Saiwanjee, Vasu ji, Darshan.,,.
RS: Sir you have forgotten Williams?
VKS: He is badmash, I will handle him now. Thanks for highlighting his game to me. Gupta, I will bang you..
RS:Mohan Rao case, Bhoopathy case, Agarwal case, all are glaring example..
VKS: They are great scientists, small small mistakes they do and all of you give fire to these small mistakes.
RS: Parlour visit in office time….is it small case
VKS: What is so big about this, please ignore all these small small incidents, bachen hai…Ok I have to go, you know this time I have to meet Antony ji, he is pressing me to take some cosmetic changes and cosmetic actions on Mohan, Boopathy, Arun,. . .nothing to worry I will handle him. Thank you again Salwanjee, Vasu ji, Darshan,,…THANK YOU VIEWERS GOD BLESS YOU……GOD and not that Prabhu Dandriyal, keep him away.

SA blindly saving him for unforeseen reason may be SA is blackmailing by Dr Arun Kumar.
Please find following response from our SFCIAN, DRDO Complex, Jagdalpur. Now it is establish that if you put voice in genuine matters then DRDO management can’t ignore it, beside the corrupt official sitting there in top like DOP, Dr Arun Kumar have to take decision as per Government laid down rules and on the basis of humanitarian ground.
So keep it up and raise your voice against corruption, nepotism and favouritism prevailing in DRDO by all means but same time consider the national security also.
The Government has allowed us to speak about corruption, so don’t fear to expose corruption because the corruption is eating our organization like termite. The friends from all DRDO labs sharing their problems of harassments, victims of favouritisms like in this time the DRDO lab Directors did a very much unconstitutional act. In A-Par they reduced the marks in some cases more than 10 marks and increased more 10 marks to their favourite ones. Here the question arises, that how come a lab Director judge minutely the work done by DRTC staff instead of his immediate boss who is leading the project. It is clear cut conspiracy or act of sabotaging the projects undergoing in DRDO.
In RTI anyone ask these anomalies but on the other side I want to inform all you that in DRDO, DRDC meeting it is decided that the RTI activities are to be suppressed and also suppress representation practices, in this year at the last moment DRTC result was revaluated as per new unwritten guidelines they cut those name who were involved in any RTI’s / representations.
In one case of IRDE, Dehradun, the chairman of assessment board did not like the body language of candidate and declared unfit for promotion. The question is that the DRDO authorities who made these retired DRDO officials as chairman on the basis to oblige them are well versed about the proceeding of board. Nowhere is written about body language, or what to wear. This kind of examples is lame excuses to hide their ugly acts.
Dear friends this forum invites to send your RTI’s even without exposing your names, the only restraint is that the matter should be correct and not for a vindictive aim. We, the team of www.corruptionindrdo.com, will take the issue up to highest authority.
sf complex, JAGDALPUR, DRDO (public money getting misused)outcomes of published MATTER IN CORRUPTION IN DRDO WEBSITE
We are very thankful to you sir, for published matter of corruption that going on in SF Complex, Jagdalpur dated between 21-07-2011 to 29-07-2011.
The major outcome of published matter as per our observations is as follows:
In that it was mentioned that GM’s (P.N.Tengli) favour scientist called tejasvi whenever he goes on TD to do GM’s personal Ph.D work he used to mention minimum 6-12 locations in single td.
observation:
WHEN THIS MATTER WAS PUBLISHED IN CORRUPTION IN DRDO WEBSITE,TEJASVI WAS IN TD FOR 12 LOCATIONS,BUT AS SOON AS IT AS PUBLISHED IN NET BOTH OF THEM GOT FEAR AND HE BREAK HIS TD IN HALFWAY & HE RETURENED BACK TO JAGDALPUR WHICH CLEARLY SHOWS BOTH ARE DOING REALLY MISCHIEF.
To purchase GM’s required items GM has kept tejasvi as cash purchasing officer for last 3year and continuing now also which is completely against Govt.Rules(it is allowed only max 6months as per rule).
observation:
WHEN THIS MATTER WAS PUBLISHED IN CORRUPTION IN DRDO WEBSITE, IMMEDIATELY GM MADE OFFICE ORDER THAT TEJASVI HAS RELIEVED FROM CASH PURCHASE WHICH CLEARLY SHOWS BOTH ARE DOINE REALLY MISCHIEF IN CASE PURCHASE.
GM is using hired luxury vehicle for daily travel to office of rental of RS.30, 000/- per month even though govt.allotted lalbadhi vehicle is available.
observation:
WHEN THIS MATTER WAS PUBLISHED IN CORRUPTION IN DRDO WEBSITE, IMMEDIATELY GM STARTED USING LALBADHI AGAIN WHICH CLEARLY SHOWS HE ACCEPTED HIS MISCHIEF.
WE ARE HAPPY THAT SOME CHANGE HAS BROUGHT UP BECAUSE OF PUBLISHEMENT IN YOUR WEBSITE.
BUT, WHAT & ALL THEY HAVE DONE MISCHIEF WITH GOVT.MONEY .i.e.,
a) DEPOSITING CASH PURCHASE ADVNCE MONEY IN THEIR PERSONAL ACCOUNT AND WHAT & ALL THEY EARNED BY CASH PURCHASE.
b) DONE THEIR PERSONAL WORKS (PH.D works) IN PUBLIC TAX MONEY.
c) MISUTILISATION OF CSD MONEY AS THEIR PERSONEL MONEY & utilisation of csd money FOR LADIES CLUB IN WHICH HIS CLOSE OFFICERS WIFE ONLY ARE MEMBERS.
d) MISUTILISATION OF GOVT.AWARDS BY BLUFFING GOVT. (BY MAKING FAKE DOCUMENTS) AND earning MONEY FROM THIS AWARD FOR THEIR PERSONEL BENEFITS WHERE REALLY DESERVED CANDIADATES ARE REALLY THERE.
e) There is a rule that temple should not be constructed in govt.land. But, the existing GM since,he is an hindu,he is constructing temple & in the name of temple construction he is collecting fund from vendors and contractors for which there is no accountability.
note: 1.what people other than hindu will go for prayer?
2. giving money to ravi sankar pandit sort of saints only for getting darshan of him for them only which is an csd public money?what rights they are having to give money to saint for their own darshan from public money!
f) threatening staffs that prohibition period will be increased if they are not listening to them and giving promotion to their favouring persons viloating eligible persons by holding hrd incharge post.
so,
WHAT IS THE ACCOUNTABLITY FOR ABOVESAID MISCHIEFS & CORRUPTION? LIKE THIS THEY HAVE TO APPRECEIATED TO BECOME KING OF CORRUPTIONS ?
(OR)
THEY HAVE TO BE PUNISHED?
WHETHER GOVT.WILL TAKE SOME ACTION AGAINST TEHM TO MAKE THEM ALLRIGHT?
(OR)
WHETHER DRDO WILL GROW IN THIS CORRUPTION ENVIRONEMENT FOR DEVELOPING DEFENSIVE PRODUCTS FOR NATIONAL PROTECTION?
IT IS BIG QUESTION?????????????
yes! Govt has to take necessary action for all above-said because
It is involved
Public tax money! Public tax money! Public tax money!
&
Hence,
Please save public money!

To 15th September2011
The Defence Minister
Room No -104, South Block
New Delhi – 110011
Reference: a) Your letter No 1409-VIP/RM/2011 dated 21st March 2011 b) Your letter No 1409-VIP/RM/2236 dated 20th May 2011
Honorable Sir,
To expose the corrupt practices of DRDO top brasses I sought under RTI Act -2005 several informations and as I have already reported you few cases to you , where DRDO took the shelter under schedule-II exemption and did not gave the information. I approached the appellate authority but he also outright dismisses my requests which were asked in larger public interest.
Finally when I appealed to CIC (Chief Information commissioner) and CIC ordered DRDO authority to furnish the information to applicant.
Now DRDO compelled to issue a letter seeking recovery of HRA (House Rent Allowances) from those scientist/ officers who have stayed/staying in guest houses and also claimed/ claiming the HRA (House Rent Allowances)
The enclosed letter No DOP/03/3100/M/05 dated 17th August 2011 is meaningless until the HRA (House Rent Allowances) recovered with interest from guilty scientist/ officers
DRDO top officers are enjoying this corrupt practice since early 1990.
In this connection an interesting case is that a senior top officer was posted to DRDO Hqrs was stayed in guest house and in the same time he was allotted Type IV/V Government accommodation, which he was rented to private person and collected approx Rs 30000 /month even after his retirement from DRDO. He was continued hold that house almost 5 years after retirement. This is the one of the famous case of DRDO and SA to RM knows it very well. It can happen in only in DRDO.
To stop this corrupt practice permanently from DRDO, Sir, you are requested to consider following and pass the appropriate order to Defence Secretary on this subject matter.
All those scientist/ officers who are staying/or stayed in guest house and claiming or claimed HRA (House Rent Allowances) should refund the amount with interest as per CCS (CCA) rules.
This deliberated attempt to fool the system and generate the illegal money should appropriately deal as per CCS (CCA) rules and to be reflected in their service book.
SA to RM is so helpless that even after Bangalore Police arrested GTRE, Director Sh T Mohan Rao under Immoral Traffic Act from a massage parlour and interrogated him with supplier ILN Technology’s agent Sh V N Narayan. But SA to RM is helpless and simply shifts him to anther Lab CEMILAC and from where Sh T Mohan Rao remotely managing GTRE show. After passing five months the GTRE is running without proper leadership the more than two thousand DRDO officials working without head of establishment. Why? Because of SA to RM is helpless in front of DRDO’s richest Director Sh T Mohan Rao. According the sources honorable Minister of State for Defence Sh M M Pallam Raju who is directly looking after DRDO activities & defence production protecting the interest of Sh T Mohan Rao. The system is helpless because of the prevailing corruption, nepotism; favoritism in DRDO is in its peak.
In DRDO like Sh T Mohan Rao a few cases have further surfaces, where Sh G Bhoopthy, Director, DLRL was found having illicit relation in absences of his wife with call girls at his official residence. He is famous to use contractors for this kind of activities, for project hired transport AP 11 TV0937 the contractor supplied the call girls in month of February 2011, the inquiry was conducted by Brig Ajay Gupta but no action is take why? SA to RM is helpless.
Sh G Bhoopthy freely enjoying the government funds, the misappropriation of funds like in the case of procurement of Access Control System is tip of ice berg. The two-two inquiry committee was constituted committee members enjoyed their temporary duties and put the biased report like they justified that purchase of double quantity power fencing ( DLRL boundary periphery is approx 3000 meters and DLRL purchased 6ooo meters at more than double price Rs 1185 instead of DRDL purchase Rs 585), that quantity is purchased as backup. So again SA to RM is still helpless.
Sh R C Aggarwal, Director, DEAL, Dehradun spent nearly Rs 10 Lakh /annually on temporary duties from 2008 onwards, all his movements to Hyderabad & Bangalore was planned to get project SDR (Software Define Radio) for Rs 100 Crores sanctioned . He got extension of two years without having requisite international stature, subject matter expertise and barely after three months of extension is he planning to flee out of SDR. He has understood that with the present scenario and capability, DEAL cannot developed or integrate SDR, DEAL can only resubmit a feasibility report for SDR development as phase-II. He has all ready spent crores of rupees for procuring obsolete items (SDR Kits) which were declared obsolete by Europe & US firms. Like SDR 3000 which is lying in corridor of SIDEC building in DEAL.
Says Sh RC Aggarwal Government has enough money and we can play without being committed to develop or demonstrate technology of SDR, from each case of software/hardware procurement he has getting some kickback that’s the reason he is the only person who is contributing Rs 1.25 Lakh/month in his GPF account.
Sh R C Aggarwal with help of works division of DEAL spends crores of Rupees in the name of renovation of corridors/conference halls/toilets and each and every corner of DEAL. The earlier in 2007 the whole works were done by Sh Ashok Sen and now the strong and well built infrastructure demolished by Sh R C Aggarwal and whole DEAL scientist and staff seen this disaster as silent spectator. All keep their mouth shut on wasting of government fund s the only reason is their carrier.
Sh Hemant Gupta, HMM (Head Material Management) a highest corrupt scientist of DEAL has now managed his transfer in DECS (Directorate of Electronics & Computer Science) , DRDO Hqrs, New Delhi with the help of his relative sitting in higher post at DRDO Hqrs. When Sh Hemant Gupta involved in Scientific activity of DEAL never got proper ACR and promotion call in normal course in his tenure in DEAL but when Sh R C Aggarwal took charge as a Director, DEAL and he put him as HMM then he got outstanding report, so the nepotism of Sh R C Aggarwal is shows everywhere in DEAL weather it is in giving outstanding reports to his bania community or giving all creamy post to same bania community and same thing in allotment of tenders there are also domination in bania community.
It is not surprising thing because the guru & boss of Sh R C Aggarwal, Dr R Sree Hari Rao, CC (R&D) earlier when he was director, DLRL did same thing in DLRL, his close relative Sh N Sriniwasa Rao is one of the most youngest scientist ‘G’, who never did any project independently, Dr R Sree Hari Rao, CC (R&D) not only favored his relative but he did it for all his community and lot of real hard working scientist suffered and retired without getting due recognitions/ promotions like Shri K Manjunath, retired as Scientist ‘F’ only.
Due same practice adopted by Sh R C Aggarwal, unrest is developing in senior scientist of DEAL and SA is receiving representations, but what will happen – SA to RM is helpless.
This is not the case is only in DEAL whole DRDO labs are working in same spirit. If somebody dare to talk this means he should be ready for punishment first transfer to farthest lab and second is unwritten redline on his future service carrier.
In such environment how our defence forces can believe on these insensitive so called scientist/ technocrats who are wasting money and resources on their personal use/ on call girls / on massage parlours/ or ingathering properties .
But above all SA to RM is helpless.
I request to Honorable Prime Minister that as the ministers are already declared their assets on website, please instruct to DRDO top brasses to declare their assets on website specially up to Director level scientists. The whole country will be surprised to see the assets of these scientists before taking charge as director and after charge the difference of acquiring asset will tell the whole story.
