By categorising and sub-categorising themes and departments, the new portal will help users to be more specific in their complaints.

NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will launch a brand new website for public grievances on Wednesday. Corruption in central government seems to be the top concern as the PMO replaces the existing public web-interface for the prime minister with ‘PRAGATI’, the new portal. The portal is getting launched along with the PM’s monthly programme of interaction with union secretaries and chief secretaries through video-conferencing.

While the Manmohan Singh-era public grievances portal, “PMO CPGRAMS”, had a category on “corruption/malpractice”, the new one will go beyond the simple label. The corruption category will have nine sub-categories on its drop-down menu just to register complaints of corruption within various government departments.

The departments listed under the category of corruption are telecom, railways, department of financial services, ministry of power, petroleum, heavy industries, urban development, road transport, rural development and others. This could even be treated as a list of departments with the highest potential for corruption.

By categorising and sub-categorising themes and departments, the new portal will help users to be more specific in their complaints.

For instance, harassment is further sub-categorised into minorities, SC/ST, backward class, women, children, differently-abled and others. Also, the theme ‘police’ would have separate sub-categories for corruption, atrocities and inaction of police along with reguregular policing issues like murder and rape.

The new architecture has the back-end bureaucratic and technological support to ensure that these grievances are addressed and pursued to their logical conclusion.

All the issues flagged by the PMO will be uploaded a week ahead of the “PRAGATI day”, which will be the third Wednesday of every month. Union secretaries and chief secretaries will have to offer their comments and updates about the issues by the Monday prior to the PRAGATI day.

Finally, the PM will get to look at the issues addressed by the relevant departments and then discuss them with the concerned secretary or the chief secretary through video conferencing on the third Wednesday of every month. PM’s directions on every issue will remain in the system for further follow up and review till the issue is closed.

The portal is thus designed to keep every complainant engaged with the government machinery at the highest level and to ensure systemic corrections through the redressal of the complaints.

Subject: Continuously Manipulations in recruitment of scientists in Recruitment and Assessment Centre (RAC), Ministry of Defence, (DRDO).
Sir,

  1. Since last 10 years lot of complaints were received by defence ministry regarding the manipulation, nepotism, recruitment of incompetent candidates by RAC, DRDO
  2. Country already witnessed the degradation of DRDO output in several field including Kargil War and one of the major reason of downfall is below standard recruitments done by RAC.
  3. After intervention of Ex Defence Minister 2 scientists recruitment was annulled by DRDO and more are in queue, same time minister also recommended vide Diary No. 14320 dated 24/102013 for CBI enquiry against 10 senior top scientists including two Ex SA to RM and also advice to rethink recruitment through UPSC to avoid all nonsense activities doing by RAC.
  4. Dr. RK Jain, when he was mere Sc F, appointed Director, RAC, w.e.f. 1 March 2009. Without doing science he was promoted Sc ‘G then Sc H in 2013 ignoring GOI order of FCS.
  5. RK Jain’s expertise are utilizing by most of Directors for nepotism and for other vested interest.
  6. Recently Dr S C Sati, Director, ADRDE, Agra pushing a privilege to his loyal multidimensional, multitalented, supporting  Ade Sh Vikas B Thakre, Sc F by helping him to recruit his wife Dr. Vandana V Thakre for the post of scientist E in DRDO.
  7. A tailor made post was advertised with help of great manipulator Dr R K Jain for Dr. Vandana V Thakre, Interview is already completed, as per sources the selection was finalized within day or two it will be declare by RAC.
  8. Presently Dr. Vandana V Thakre is working as associate professor in Madhav Institute of Technology and Science, Gwalior and Dr Sc Sati’s son Akshat is perusing his engineering in her guidance.
  9. I think Sh Vikas B Thakre, Sc F inspired by Dr A K Sikdar, Sceitist G, HEMRL, Pune that his involved in writing/reviewing of his own wife Dr.Nirmla Sikdar, Scientist F and reporting her husband since last five years. Anything can happen in DRDO
  10. These all involved scientists are not learn a lesson from Dr Arun Kumar, Ex DOP’s last minute suspension, his daughter;s 10 year service annulling, Dr. S M Veerabhadrappa, Director, DTRL charge sheeted and facing Departmental proceeding, Mrs T Chandrabanu, Sc F service annulled, Ms S Geetha, Sc D, DIPAS and Ms Dolly Bansal both are in queue, any time their service will be terminated. The queue is very long.
  11. I would like to congratulate through you to Dr Vandana V Thakre, Sh Vikas B Thakre, Dr S C Sati and Dr R K Jain follow the footsteps of great corrupt Dr Arun Kumar, Dr W Selvamurthy etc.

Sir, we feel that in Modi ji era and your special selection as defence minister everyone in country start hopping that now the corruption/nepotism/favoritism will be end. The two major steps like termination of Sh Avinash Chander, and order for review and hold his last moment orders are giving us  some light rays.

With great expectations of corrective measures.

It seems that DRDO losing its credibility of inventing sophisticated weapons and technologies for the well being of India. While BJP was at opposition, they made lot of cry by accusing UPA had compromised with safety of India. Now BJP begins to run the Defence Ministry with new defence mininster. But things are as usual.

It is well known that bangalore DRDO scientists have no work ; ADE is a place for leisure by employees who are supposed to be scientists . With excellent housing , no worth while work , these employees have already retired while in service like Bangalore ITI. What action was taken on Pune DRDO for spending Rs.5 crores for a temple chariot from defence funds GOK. Now SUVs. Will our no nonsense defence minister stop this nonsense , save defence precious funds and institute accountability on DRDO, ADE etc or close them all and save precious public funds .

Hello,
Kindly provide me with the following information requested under the purview of the Right to Information Act, 2005 in respect of corrupt practices following by DRDO.

The applicants already filed hundreds of RTI s to DRDO with the aim of expose their corrupt practices earlier up to end of 2011 I have received 50% informations in the basis of those inputs, I have submitted some corruption complaints to CVC and other agencies partly the action were taken but from mid of 2013 I have only received 10%  informations but no action taken on corruption exposures. Interestingly since end 2013 DRDO stopped giving any informations against RTI applications, whether it is related to corruption or human right. I tried to my best requested RTI with enclosed corruption evidences but to DRDO refuses to all RTI requests under section 24 (1). DRDO have no respect for constitutional provision of GOI.

The following information is requested with evidences which prima facie supported that Dr Tamilmani and other involved in corrupt practices. This information is requesting through PMO because we have faith on Sh Narendra Modi ji government and if, we will not get any response of this RTI than it is a confirmation that PMO is also in the grip of corrupt officers and Modi ji government has no meaning of RTI Act 2005.

  1. Provide the information that Toyota Innova using by Dr K Tamilmani, DG AERO, Director, ADE and others are procured under Project Rustom II as Remote Video Terminal Vehicle as stated in Dr.Hina Gokhle, DHRD
  2. Provide total Toyota Innova/Scorpios/Safaris in the financial 2012/13, 2013/14 & 2014/15 with nomenclature used, project names by DRDO.
  3. Provide the numbers of Directors/establishment Heads/in-charges of various siblings of DRDO using red beacon on their vehicles.
  4. Provide the total amount dispersed as transport allowance in financial year 2014/15 to Directors/establishment Heads/Program Directors/project Directors /in-charges of various siblings of DRDO

Note – The matter is directly related to corruption and not exempted under section 24 1 of RTI Act 2005

DRDO’s  Good days are coming – Dadagiri of DRDO scientists who are looking administration & HR of DRDO and passage of time they piled up hundreds of court cases and created lot of grievances and frustration among honest devoted officials. The incompetency of handling administrative, HR, recruitment and promotion matters one of the major reason of unproductiveness of DRDO.

The following answer given by Sh Manohar Parrikar in Rajya Sabha giving us some hope of Good are coming

 

GOVERNMENT OF INDIA

MINISTRY OF  DEFENCE

RAJYA SABHA

QUESTION NO 2119 ANSWERED ON  17.03.2015

Overhauling of the DRDO and DPSUs

2119    Shri Rajeev Chandrasekhar

Will the Minister of DEFENCE be pleased to satate :-

(a) whether Government plans to overhaul the functioning of the DRDO and the Defence PSUs in order to realise Make in India programme targets for the defence sector; and

(b) if so, the detailed plan and roadmap for the same?

ANSWER

MINISTER OF DEFENCE

(SHRI MANOHAR PARRIKAR)

(a) & (b): The functioning of Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) was reviewed by a Committee headed by Prof. P. Rama Rao. DRDO has accepted several recommendations which inter-alia include creation of Seven Technology Domain based Clusters headed by Director’s General; Restructuring of DRDO HQrs; Creation of Directorate of Quality, Reliability and Safety (QR&S); increase in budget for Extramural Research; creation of empowered Defence Technology Commission (DTC); creation of a Commercial Arm of DRDO; creation of 5 Senior Administrative Grade (SAG) posts along with 162 other posts for full scale implementation of Integrated Financial Advisor (IFA) Scheme etc.

Recently, a review of all DRDO Projects along with the three Services, OFB and Defence Public Sector Undertakings (DPSUs) has been carried out so as to realign the focus towards the “Make in India” Programme. Also, more than 1000 small, medium and large Indian industries have been involved in the development and productionisation of products for the delivery to the Services.

With the objective of achieving self-reliance in defence production, the DPSUs have been continuously modernizing and upgrading their capabilities and widening their product range. Some of the DPSUs have also collaborated with DRDO and other R&D institutions in this regard. There is also increasing emphasis on partnerships of DPSUs with the private sector for sourcing various components so that DPSUs can play the role of system integrators and become more competitive.

न्‍यूज 24 एक्‍सक्‍लूसिव: मोदी को शिकायत करना इस वैज्ञानिक को पड़ा महंगा on March 20, 2015 8:08 pm

2 Comments

संजीव त्रिवेदी, नई दिल्ली (20 मार्च): प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी अपने मन की बात कार्यक्रम में पूरे देश से अपील करते हैं कि उन्हें सुझाव भेजिए। बताइए कि कैसे देश का भला किया जा सकता है। ऐसे में एक वैज्ञानिक सीधे प्रधानमंत्री दफ्तर को अपना सुझाव और शिकायत भेजते हैं। इस उम्मीद के साथ कि सरकार सुझाव के बारे में और जानकारी मांगेगी, शिकायत की जांच करेगी। लेकिन हुआ क्या। इसके आगे का पूरा सच आप जानेंगे तो कहीं आपका विश्वास सरकारी महकमों में सबसे ऊपर प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय के काम करने के तरीके से ना उठ जाए।

28 सितंबर 2014 यही वो तारीख थी, जब वैज्ञानिक पशुपति राव ने सीधे प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय की वेबसाइट पर एक सुझाव शिकायत के साथ दर्ज कराई। जिसमें उन्होंने कोटा में नेशनल फ्यूल कॉम्प्लेक्स का सेंटर बनाने में हुई गड़बड़ियों का जिक्र किया। वैज्ञानिक पशुपतिराव ने प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय को बताया कि बाहर से एक्सपर्ट को अनुबंधित करने के नाम पर रिटायर्ड अफसरों को ही चुन लिया गया। 5 करोड़ का बजट बनाकर 16 लाख में काम पूरा किया गया। जबकि इतना पैसा खर्च करने की भी जरूरत नहीं थी क्योंकि सक्षम अफसरों के गैरवाजिब पदों पर बैठाकर संस्थान उनका इस्तेमाल नहीं कर रहा।

आप सोच रहे होंगे कि जब प्रधानमंत्री खुद देश के हित में जनता की भागीदारी चाहते हैं तो जरूर उन्होंने वैज्ञानिक पशुपतिराव के सुझाव और शिकायत पर जरूरी कदम उठाए होंगे। लेकिन इसके आगे क्या हुआ। आप जानकर चौंक जाएंगे। जो सुझाव और शिकायतें वैज्ञानिक पशुपतिराव ने प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय को भेजी थीं। उनकी जांच कराने की जगह PMO ने उन्हीं के पास भेज दिया, जिनकी शिकायत की गई थी। इसके बाद वैज्ञानिक के विभाग में हंगामा मच गया। शिकायत करने वाले पशुपति राव को ही विभाग ने चिट्ठी दे दी। जिसमें लिखा गया आपको जो काम मिला है। उस पर ध्यान दीजिए। आपने स्टाफ की शिकायत की है। आगे भी सवाल जवाब होंगे।

हालांकि पशुपति राव के बारे में जब उनके विभाग से न्यूज 24 ने सवाल पूछा तो दावा किया गया कि कोई एक्शन नहीं लिया जाएगा। लेकिन सच पशुपति राव को मिली ये वो चिट्ठी भी है, जो न्यूज 24 के पास है, जिसमें साफ साफ लिखा है कि आप अपने काम पर ध्यान दें। प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय के कामकाज को संभाल चुके राज्य मंत्री रहे नारायण सामी बताते हैं कि मोदी के ऑफिस की तरफ से बड़ी गलती हुई है जबकि मौजूदा मंत्री को तो पूरे मामले की खबर तक नहीं।

प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय एक शिकायत को जांच करने की जगह उसी अफसर के पास भेज देता है जिसकी शिकायत की गई है और पीएमओ का कामकाज देखने वाले मंत्री कहते हैं कि जानकारी नहीं है। संभव है कि वो मामले को टालना चाहते हैं क्योंकि पशुपति राव के मामले में जो लापरवाही प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय ने बरती है उसे लेकर सूचना के सिपाही प्रभु डॉड्रियाल ने पीएमओ में एक आरटीआई लगाई और इस आरटीआई का जवाब अब तक मोदी का कार्यालय तलाश ही रहा है। क्योंकि यही बताया गया है कि आपके सवाल का जवाब ढूंढने की प्रकिया जारी है।

प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय ने अपने विभाग से जुड़ी शिकायत करने वाले वैज्ञानिक पशुपति राव की पहचान जाहिर की तो अब तक उन्हें सिर्फ कुछ हिदायती चिट्ठी और आगे सवाल जवाब के लिए तैयार रहने के लिए कहा गया है। लेकिन पीएमओ से हुई इस चूक ने याद दिलाई है 12 साल पहले प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय से हुई बड़ी लापरवाही को। 12 साल पहले सत्येंद्र दुबे नाम के ईमानदार अफसर ने अपने विभाग में भ्रष्टाचार की सच्चाई प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय तक पहुंचाई तो उसके बदले मौत दे दी गई।

सत्येंद्र दुबे नेशनल हाइवे अथॉरिटी में प्रोजेक्ट डायरेक्टर के पद पर थे। उन्होंने अपने विभाग में हो रहे भ्रष्टाचार का पूरा सच चिट्ठी में लिखकर प्रधानमंत्री कार्यालय के भेजा था। सत्येंद्र दुबे ने गुजारिश की थी कि उनका नाम जाहिर ना किया जाए। लेकिन तब पीएमओ ने सत्येंद्र दुबे के नाम के साथ उस चिट्ठी को कई विभागों को जारी किया था और फिर 27 नवंबर 2003 को सत्येंद्र दुबे की हत्या कर दी गई थी। 12 साल बाद पीएमओ ने फिर एक लापरवही की। गनीमत है कि इस बार सिर्फ शिकायतकर्ता को विभाग की तरफ से सवाल जवाब का ही सामना करना पड़ रहा है। लेकिन ये एक चेतावनी की घंटी है। क्योंकि अब पीएमओ ने ऐसी लापरवाही बरती तो जनता का वो भरोसा चूर चूर हो जाएगा, जो प्रधानमंत्री देते हैं।
