13^th May 2010 RTI request

Hello,
Kindly provide me with the following information requested under the purview of the Right to Information Act, 2005. 

1. Please provide copy of gazette notification or copy of any order by Government of India for using designation as Assistant Director,  Deputy Director, Joint Directors, Additional Directors, Associate Directors & Director in Defence Research Development organization’s Scientists ‘B’ to Distinguished Scientists. As DRDO personals commonly using in their publications, commercial advertisements, web sites and correspondences to the general public etc.

 

Note: above required information is directly related to corruption and not come under schedule -II

8. Brief facts of the case:

DRDO having approx 7000 strong Scientists  team and recently DRDO is asking more Scientists s from Government of India stating the reason that entire authorization of DRDO post has been used up and there is urgent need to enhance authorization to meet essential and sensitive requirements of projects/ programs/ task

Presently DRDO management is wasting their scientific and technical manpower in admin, allied, stores, procurement, security, arboriculture, horticultures and works (constructions) assignments for some vested reasons. To know the exactly about the ground realty of using manpower in proper assignments.

I have requested on behalf of poor tax payers, how much money is being   wasting by DRDO by putting scientific and technical manpower in sundry works,  so that  the factual information would have reflected the information authorized manpower is being used in admin allied assignments.

DRDO Hqrs obtain authorization of manpower under DRDS, DRTC and Services justifying the reason of their deployment/ requirement for R&D Projects/Programs/Tasks. DRDS scientists, DRTC technocrats and services officers are being trained to meet the long term requirement of developing systems and technologies for the armed forces.

The scientists are being sent to on training and courses at IIT’s Universities ect. on Government expenses, so as to enhance significantly the profile for job functional requirements but their services are actually utilize in handling personal matters, general administration, court cases, relating to service matters, security,  Director Management Services, Head Material Managements, Security Officer, Library In-charge, Works  In-charge, CSD management, Wet Canteen, Estate Managers.

Therefore it is considered that functioning of by the Government on the recruitment/ training and on their carrier development of DRDS/DRTC is being misutilized and misappropriated, thus it is a corrupt practice on the part of DRDO management.

“RTI is a key instrument for imposing democratic values, accountability and transparency in our public administration,” Dr.Shah Faisal ( IAS topper 2010 & RTI activist of J&K RTI Movement NGO) told Sakàl Times

The service in Govt. of India is controlled by article 145 of constitution and SRO’s are prepared considering the locus standy to meet the functional requirements.

 
The sanction under SRO is granted for appointing Scientist “B” to Distinguished Scientists in Officer Cadre.

Until the SRO amendment it is crime and violation of CCS/CCA rules of the Govt. of India.

DRDO selects right people with desire competence for the post for which they are recruited/promoted/trained. In order to attract retaining, inspire and motivate, DRDO scientist to give their best contribution and keeping in view the role played by them in the development of high technology and systems for strategic application the government has sanctioned following financial incentive to all scientist of DRDO with effect from 1^st Jan 1999.

Special pay of Rs 2000/ per month to Scientist G and above*

Two additional increment to Scientist (recruited/promoted) C, D, E and F after their pay normal pay fixation.

       Enhanced to Rs  20000/ per annum to Scientist E & F

       Enhanced to Rs  30000/ per annum to Scientist G & above with effect

from 1^st Sept 2008

In addition to above mentioned financial increments the really deserving scientist of DRDO for their very exceptional and highly meritorious performance and recognition   of their merit, are being granted variable increments up to maximum of 6 at the time of their promotion with effect from1st Jan 2009. The scientist ‘H’ / Outstanding scientist and distinguished scientist are being granted fixed amount of Rs 10000/- per month as variable increments.
