SFCIANS, SF COMPLEX, DRDO, JAGDALPUR – DOP, DRDO IS DEAF & DUMB

The reply of my RTI related to SFCian issue was denied by DRDO Hqrs under the shelter of Schedule- II of RTI Act 2005.

As per section 19 of RTI Act 2005 I have appealed to DRDO Hqrs appellate authority and as you very well know that he is deaf & dumb for humanity issues and only act fast on personal issues  in which he has some personal interest. So reply is known but we will take this issue up to supreme authorities.

Hope for best……………………

6. Particulars of Decision of CPIO:

Date of CPIO’s  Decision:9th August 2011

Date of receipt of decision by the appellant:12th August 2011

7. Brief facts of the case: 

The official address of SF Complex is “SF COMPLEX, AIRPORT TERMINAL BUILDING, JAGDALPUR-494001”. SFC Employees are given appointment letters with above address as reporting place. But, all are forced to report at the above address as well as at its work centre located at Girola village, Bakawand block, Bastar district. This location is completely out of 40 Kms away from municipality (Jagdalpur) of the official address.

As per rule they should report at the place of posting as per the appointment letter. But it is not so. Is it (forcing to report at other place) not violation of an employee’s right to report at the posting place? The management says that reporting place is at Girola and same time management says Airport terminal building, Jagdalpur. It is clear cut case of harassment of employees of SF Complex.

One example: one of the scientists, named Shri Kushal Sahoo, was killed in an accident near Bakawand last year while returning from the Girola site to Jagdalpur in Bolero vehicle. Bakawand police station filed FIR and accident report (can refer the same with the police station). When settling the case the DRDO HQs asked the official movement order to consider it as death while performing duty. As the movement order was not issued actually for him and few more travelling in the same vehicle they were also injured, management of SF Complex made a statement of case stating that “Kusahl Sahoo is travelling for the purpose of meeting at Airport Terminal Building, Jagdalpur office”.

If the travelling from Jagdalpur to Girola and back is official and as per the rule and the rule position should be clear for all for management, employees and the general public. After this accident all the staff of SF Complex Jagdalpur took a decision and reported at posting place only. This happened for two days and later management has interfered and threatened to them for report at Girola and told them if they will not report at Girola, will get termination letter.  Employees were forced to report at Girola. It is a violation of Human Right? Reporting at posting place is not correct? Then why appointment letters were given like that?  DRDO has to duty to provide them proper necessary papers as per rule position of Central Government.

The requested information is not come under 8(1) (a) and 24 (1) of the RTI Act at all because the information asked not in the nature of secrecy like The copy of fitness certificates of those vehicles which carries the employees daily to Girola plant site from SF Complex from competent authority. This the major concern of family and friends of employees of SF complex for their safety and well beings. For mere few thousand Rupees from contractors as bribe the Top DRDO officials playing with the life of SF Complex Employees.

The required information is fall under corruption and as well as violation human right and therefore in any means it is not come under schedule –II exemption of RTI Act 2005.

“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

8. Reasons/grounds for this appeal:
i)     To know the sensitiveness and work environment of DRDO
  ii)     To expose the corrupt practices prevailing in DRDO

9. Any other information in support of appeal: 
10. Prayer/relief sought for: 

It is requested that please provide me correct information as per request of my RTI dated 19th   July 2011   in larger public interest, because it is directly related to corruption and violation of Human rights.
11. Enclosures: 

i)              My RTI request dated  19th July 2011   
ii)              Denial of CPIO, DRDO Hqrs dated 09 August 2011
 
12. Declaration:

I hereby state that the information and particulars given above are true to the best of my knowledge and belief. I also declare that this matter is not previously filed with any information commission nor is pending with any Court or tribunal or authority.

Honorable Sir,

Promotion of Sh R K Jain, Director, RAC, I have earlier informed you the neck deep nepotism flourishing in RAC, DRDO after Dr P S Goel took the charge of Chairman, RAC. The  cut paste technology of RAC Chairman has helped Sh R K jain to claim 50 publications without the references of Journals year of publication, Page Nos etc.

It has been confirm by RAC that out of 50 publications claimed by Sh R K Jain, 37 Publications are technical reports and 10 was abstracts presented in symposia /seminars. The ugly part of these publications, Chairman RAC Dr P S Goel recommended Sh R K Jain “Scientist of the Year” award

What is happening in DRDO, Please order an inquiry, enclosed   representation is received by www.corruptionindrdo.com on 29th August 2011

Thanking you

Ref— DRDO News Letter-August 2009— Promotion to Bluff Master in “outstanding” category

Dear Sir(s),

Please notice the Resume of Shri RK Jain, Director RAC for promotion from Sc ‘F’ to Sc ‘G’ in ‘outstanding’ category published in DRDO Newsletter- August 2009 – enclosed

flag A Back ground- not the work in the scale of Sc ‘F

flag B Got promotion for installing CCTV. Is it a scientific work? CCTVs are installed in shops, malls, poles, on roads, airports, railway stations, schools, colleges, private offices, PSUs, banks, ministries, homes, community centers.

Is it a work worth even mentioning?

Installing Videoconferencing- Even non scientific organisations are using this technology. Is it a scientific work? Is it research work?

flag C  “responsible for 50 publications which include 37 technical reports, chapters in 5 b09ks, monographs and published/presented more th_an 10 papers”

The sentence itself is meaningless, Publications do not include technical reports

50 publications include 10 publications/presentations? What does this mean?

How many publications shri Jain has?

How many presentations has he given?

Where has he ever presented any paper?

What are these five books?

With Internet search, not a single publication is visible.

flag D  Misleading- was scientist of the year award in 2006 given for work done 1995? This is not the work done in the scale of Sc ‘F’ and should not have been mentioned at all

­

This indicates that DRDO promotions have nothing to do with work. The higher ups decide whom to promote No matter what is the work of the scientist or wI1at he writes in his resume – without verifying CCs approves it and the committee is asked to pass it.

Does the work worth giving promotion in ‘outstanding’ category.

Was the promotion given to Sh RK Jain, Director RAC for manipulations in recruitments and assessments??

Minister Sir is requested to verify the truth of this resume

Appeal to All Retired/Serving Officials of DRDO – Please Provide Inputs & Suggestion for PIL’s

2 Comments

Dear friends

To save our premier organization from clutches of corrupt official it is time to submit PIL’s in honorable Supreme Court/ High Court. The people who retired or serving in DRDO are very well know that how much neck deep corruption, nepotism, favoritism and misuse of funds prevailing in DRDO.

So far DRDO has escaped from the attentions of the various agencies like CAG, CVC, CBI, Income Tax, Custom and Sales Tax etc.  The www.corrutionindrdo.com received lot of information which can attract the above all agencies and in few cases the information also about how DRDO fooling or misleading these agencies.

We have to tell the honorable Court that DRDO senior management is as corrupt as Sh P J Thamos, Ex- CVC, or as Justice Soumitra Sen (first judge impeached by Rajyashabha) and some corrupt as Sh Andimuthu Raja (2G scam fame minister) as Smt Kanimozhi Karunanidhi (2G scam fame member of Parliament) as Sh Suresh Kalmadi ( CWG scam fame member of Parliament)  are now in Tihar Jail.

DRDO established in the year 1958 with a humble beginning to technical support to the defence forces, as an integral part Ministry of Defence along with defence production units. The successive war fought by India such as 1962 with China, 1956 & 1971 with Pakistan and 1999 Kargil war it has been proved that DRDO has not played significant role and exhausted billion of billion  poor tax payers money.

The promised were like bring moon on Earth as programs like IGMDP (Missile Program), MBT (Arjun), SAMYUKTA(Electronic Warfare), LCA(Tejas Aircraft), RADARS, SHIPS, SUBMARINE, Bread, Butter, Jam etc.

Until 1980 DRDO spread from Kanyakumari to Leh and Gujrat to North East. The huge Infrastructure were built (1 Lakh Crores) and high technical man power recruited                 ( 30000) by passing UPSC and aim was to develop import substitute but with the passage of time:-

  1. DRDO forgot all the commitments to the defence forces and instead of strengthen the forces it played role of obstacles for procurement latest technology.
  2. DRDO directors, Hqrs justify their successive failures but consumed 7-8 % of defence budget annually.
  3. The total failures were reviewed by ministry of defence and 439 projects was short closed/ aborted(before time)
  4. Programs which were initiated by 1990 with the promise of deliverable products were failed measurably the poor tax payer’s money which were supposed to play a positive role in country’s defence were mere wasted.
  5. Today we are importing the import substitute latest example like SDR and befooled the countryman.
  6. In the name of SECRECY article’s of 1927 & 1965 seals the corrupt DRDO top brasses and they are siphoning the precious money in the broad day light to their son’s, daughter’s, spouse, relatives and friends bank accounts.
  7. Orders are placed with foreign firms through open / limited tenders but the case is negotiated with these private pocket firms which are related to them. As a result huge DRDO money goes to massage parlour, Cocktails Party’s  and dowry with Mercedes Benz ( Ex Director DIITM, DRDO Hqrs was generously to give Mercedes Benz to his Son In Law)
  8. Fighting against corruption prevailing in DRDO since 2001 have collected enough information and ready to file PIL .  Through website www.corruptionindrdo.com many many honest, patriotic and nationalist people join their hands and supplied lot information about corruption, nepotism to save our DRDO.

I appeal to my brothers and sisters of serving and retired DRDO officials to join hands in support the PIL’s for cleaning the DRDO from corrupt officials and make DRDO a perfect productive organization so our future talented boys and girls not quit from DRDO due to unethical environment.

The proposed PIL will be submitted through Sh Vinay Kumar Mittal, Ex Scientist ‘G’, DRDO and whistle blower of NTRO. The PIL’s will be presented by Sh Prashant Bhushan the noted advocated   Sh Anna’s right hand.

  1. Extension / contracts/ consultancy of corrupt DRDO officials beyond the 60 years of service
  2. Recruitment/ Assessment tool used to encourage corruption/ nepotism/favoritism and kick backs in recruitment and assessments( DRDO RAC activities and the role of RAC chairman)
  3. To fix the accountability. So far nobody is answerable to anybody in DRDO. It has inculcated a culture to encourage bluff and give benefit to bluff masters.
  4. To expose all DRDO serving/ retire top officials having companies which are involving in unethical business directly or indirectly and siphoning the poor tax payer’s money.

Sh Vinay Kumar Mittal, Ex Scientist ‘G’, DRDO has kindly agreed and offered his services to submit PIL’s who already brought the NTRO corruption in the notice of honorable Supreme Court as well as in the notice of common people of India.

Thanking you

Subject  Request for information for filing PIL in Delhi High Court against DRDO

Dear Prabhu,

i am an avid reader of your site about what is happening in DRDO.

DRDO of today is not the DRDO of yesteryear’s . There no doubt that there is massive corruption , favoritism , nepotism , misuse of official position and funds in various laboratorieses of DRDO. DRDO Laboratory Director are ‘neo kings’ who are law unto themselves . I remember a Director’s conference in mid 900’s when Dr. Arunachalam was SA and T.N Sheshan was Defence Secretary . He very open  said that  ‘”when you visit a DRDO lab there will be  a long pathway –  you open one gate then second gate and finally a third gate to see the king (Director)  sitting and ruling over his empire. They consider themselves nothing less than kings – the Maharaja with lab staff and scientist as their praja”.

I have personally witnessed all this and deeply saddened

What went wrong with NTRO is this DRDO culture which was imported by DRDO crowd i.e. KVSS Prasad Rao and M.S.Vijayraghavan .This DRDO culture destroyed NTRO. Now Hon’ble Supreme Court taking a very very serious view of happenings in NTRO , things are expected to move in right direction. Based on  the evidence provided by me , I have reasons to believe that some very very senior functioneries will definately be arrested after Hon’ble Supreme Court goes throught CAG and CVC report on NTRO.

I am now filing four more PILs in Supreme Court throught Sh. Prashant Bhushan  to the issue of corruption in NTRO with all the evidnece . This became essentail since there were many issues which could not be covered in my earlier PIL/SLP in the matter related to NTRO.

I have a request to make . Kindly provide me with evidence ( RTI responses, copies of documents if any and details of cases ) about corruption, misuse of official position , favoritism , nepotism in DRDO and I will file PIL in Delhi High Court against DRDO. This is essential since many of you are already working in DRDO and give3n the poor moral character of officials of DRDO , you may not like to take up the issue with you bosses. As far as as I am concerned , i have nothing to loose and worry about – iIhave faced enough threats of liquidation , arrest etc and I have taken this in my stride . When you challenge this corrupt system , this is bound to happen.

Unfortunately DRDO has escaped attention of the agencies/ institutions  because of  general impression that ‘ they are poor scientists only and not Income Tax , Sales Tax or other public dealing departments”. We have to tell the world that DRDO senior management is as corrupt as any other department.

Please do not worry about the cost . This can be worked out separately in an transparent manner.

Please put this appeal on your web site. The documents can be provided either through you or directly to me at following address

Jhinga La La

1 Comment

Good morning Dr  Saraswat Ji,

In DEAL Dehradun Dr A S Bains was Director the common slogan of DEAL was “Singh is King – Singh is King – Singh is King”. Sh  Ashok Sen become Director in 2004 the DEAL’s slogan was “Tumi Khabo, Aami Khabo, Baki Bacha Sab Khabo” and when Sh R C Aggarwal took charge as Director, DEAL in Nov 2007 now the DEAL’s slogan  is “Main Bhi Lala, Tu Bhi Lala, Baki Sab Jhinga La La”

I hope you will enjoy and do something to motivate the young scientists otherwise they will accept the prevailing truth and civilized society will convert into Jungle-Raj. The animals in jungle they love their own caste and creed. A Lion respects a Lion, a Tiger respects a Tiger, a Jackal respects a Jackal and a Jackal even after getting the color of a Lion does not roar like Lion.

Thanking you

Shri Satpal Maharaj Ji,
Chairman, Committee of Defence
13, Municipal Road, Dehradun
Subject         : Fighting Prevailing Corruption in DRDO  
Reference     : You’re Visit to DEAL, Raipur Road, Dehradun on 16th July 2010 A/N
Honorable Shri Satpal Ji Maharaj,
Heartily welcome to DEAL, Dehradun. We feel honored to welcome you in your constituency /city’s premier research centre of DRDO as a chairman, Committee of Defence.  Your responsibility multiplies when you are reporting back to honorable parliament the development witnessed here in DEAL, DRDO,  Dehradun.
1.       1.   DEAL is a nodal agency of defence communication system development and in 1995 the Govt. of India spent multi crores on a project of developing Nuclear Hardened Communication Terminal. DEAL did justice but what happened to further development and deployment, it is big question and today’s challenge for strategic defence preparedness.
2.      Like India our neighbor is also having nuclear arsenal. Have we explored the protection mechanism for our strategic commutation systems in the event of nuclear conflict? Please see what DEAL has done? 
3.      Being a Chairman, Committee of Defence it is your arena please analyze the reasons, why with a huge infrastructure and best manpower, DEAL, DRDO has failed to deliver a product (Communication Systems) especially during Kargil War.
The reasons are following please look and do the needful.
a)    Corruption
b)   Nepotism
c)    Castism
d)   Loss in faith in management
Due to above reasons lack of team sprit has inculcated which is the most important part of R&D success. Successive Director has [played with the sentiment and ignored the national defence need.
4.      Director, DEAL has planned to present you selected people of his choice and confidence  outside the main DEAL, building at SIDAC premises
5.      Please try to meet randomly to general DEAL officials from the various location and services like Technical Officers Associations, Admin Officers /Associations and DEAL Unions representatives to access the lacunas for remedial actions.
6.      Director, DEAL has made an effort to give you a gift (Goddess Idol) costing approx Rs 15000/- to specially purchased from Delhi by sending a senior Scientist Sh Hemant Gupta, Sc ’F’ on temporary duty (Government expenditure  on TD more than cost of gift)  to managing the show.
7.      The inefficiency, incompetence in the addressing the national security/defence isuues are almost visible everywhere. To guard the personal interest DRDO, Directors/ officers do not hesitate to spend Govt. funds in TA/DA for private journey specially to attend marriage parties of children of their immediate boss. ( Recently more than 110 officers from various DRDO labs attended the marriage party of Dr. R. Sreehari Rao, CC R&D’s daughter’s wedding)   
8.      The nation expects from your highness give an honest analysis of DEAL’s environment as gift to poor tax payers and help the organization to deliver a product of strategic defence importance.
Thanking you.

    i)      CPIO, DEAL Letter No DEAL/RTI/2010/38 Dated 31st May 2010 (mentioned that Para i) to iv) of my request is will be disclosed after third party consent. Para –v information relates to the stores procured from two firms for sensitive projects being progressed by DEAL, information denied. (Copy enclosed)
   ii)      CPIO, DEAL Letter DEAL/RTI/2010/Misc dated 29th June 2010 Para – 4 information completely denied (Copy enclosed)

7. Brief facts of the case: 
Why did they call it sensitive? I never asked the project details, I only asked for the procurement details and they can’t be sensitive, because they are procured from an open market with tender.
Dr A.S Bains, then Director, DEAL, DRDO, Dehradun, when appointed in DRDO at DRDL, Hyderabad, who did the police verification? The Shah Times News Report (Copy enclosed) says that he might be relation with “Babar Khalsa” terrorist outfit, who was active in Punjab insurgency and had Hqrs in England.
The money minted by Dr. A. S. Bains with few of his close associates by establishing these fake firms might be used for supporting terrorist outfits. At that time Dr. A. S. Bains was the Director, DEAL; orders were placed with these firms for the supply of items in quantity with enormously high prices and siphoned the precious foreign currency.
DRDO Hqrs since the expose of this case has come under pressure and has declared the purchase made, as sensitive. The officers who were Scientist ‘C/D’ during that period, were given out of turn promotions as reward to conceal the facts. Sh. R.P. Dixit, Sc’G’ and holding presently the charge of CFA in DEAL, Sh.S.C Jain Sc’G’  due to retirement has been given two years extension. Dr. K.D.Nayak Sc ‘H’, CC R&D and Sushil Verma, Sc’F’ were involved and were the master designer of these procurement from fake firms and as well as concealing the facts.
Dr. V.K.Atre, then SA to RM has a very close association with Dr.AS Bains, in fact Dr.Atre made him member of Sh. Arun Singh committee on defence expenditure, when I brought the facts of Dr.AS Bains to then NSA, Sh Brijesh Mishra personally. Dr.AS Bains was removed by each and every committee and was confined to DEAL only until he retired.
The appellate authority of DRDO, Dr. Prahlada is committed to protect Dr. A
S Bains and go to any extent to conceal the facts.
Only an independent agency is therefore required to investigate the total no of procurements cases / supplies under place with these fake firms and identify those culprits who still protecting the criminals.
During US sanction the uses of Custom Duty Exemption Certificates by these firms is required to be investigated, because to see the proximity with Dr.AS Bains the CDE’s might be used for benefiting terrorist outfits of Punjab.
i)      Both firms did business only with DEAL, Dehradun and belongs to one person  Lt.Col Deepak Badhwar, Resident of 37/7, Vijay Colony, Dehradun ( IB revealed and IB report is enclosed)
ii)     He is a good friend of Dr. A. S. Bains’s (then Director DEAL, Dehradun) ( News paper revealed copy enclosed)
iii)    Dr. A. S. Bains  (then Director DEAL, Dehradun) is a mysterious personality and might  be link with terrorist  as per news paper report (Paper cutting enclosed)
iv)   As per Tender Procurement Committee the supplied were state of art components/devices and were in the critical list of post US sanctions.   
v)    So question is whether both firms used CDE or not because they cannot import these items from US due to sanction.
vi)   It is the larger possibilities that with bonding with Dr. A. S. Bains the CDE might be used for support to terrorist outfit.
 Dr. A. S. Bains (then Director DEAL, Dehradun) aim was to damage the organization’s financial deals and help his friends, who were parting the hefty commission/omission. Example – a purchase of Digital display Synthesizer (DDFS) which was required for Composite Net Radio (CNR a prestigious project of DEAL), he directed project in-charge to put his friend’s company’s name (M/S Wave Components & Systems, 1409 W, Woodcrest, Fullerton CA 92833, USA) in the quotation enquiry. The best part of that the firm’s rep supplied the item in person (in the shape of scrape which is still lying with CNR project) at DEAL’s gate well before the quotation’s opening date and with item there were no papers enclosed that the items were imported from US. The plea was given by firm’s rep that his luggage was stolen at airport.  It can be verified with DEAL’s gate records. The matter was exposed by me, the file was closed but he had to give money to his friend, so again a new file was raised as per direction in proprietary base case with new nomenclature as DDES instead of DDFS, order were placed to US, LC opened, money was drawn but the item were not send from US. As expected that he had already delivered back at DEAL’s gate. After two years RBI asked for FE settlement, and then DEAL asked the firm to send anything against the said supply. But because of the Pokhran Blast, US sanction was imposed and company was not able to supply, but again they adopted DRDO’s Scientist gimmicked and arranged locally, a bogus airway bill no and with empty box they deposited via their Delhi based firm by courier. They forget that they established a relation between a firm and later on in other quotation they used this firm as their competitive.

Fullertone, CA- 92833
Residence of Mr.ManiKant Takur as per US municipal records 
i)              Mr. Manikant Takur has accepted that he is good friend of Dr.A.S.Bains to Tahalka Correspondent Mr. Shashi
ii)             The above firms received crores of rupees order from DEAL. The origin and existence of this firm is also mysterious.
iii)            The firms deals with only DEAL, Dehradun
iv)           The firms have no dealership of any manufactures
v)            The firm does not have a single leaflet/brochure’s/any professional existing document which proves that they are very well in the business later on due course of CBI inquiry they generated few but they found bogus.
vi)           The firm supplied MMIC components/Li batteries, quartze crystal etc. It shows big variation in business field
vii)          The firm always asked for splitting the order because to avoid FERA and other agencies who normally not bother for small transactions.
viii)         The asked for change the nomenclature of the items so it can help to fool, financial member, custom authorities and US commerce department.
ix)           Not a single fruitful output was generated by DEAL by using items supplied by said firm. If one can go for physical verification will find the only scarp, in case of 35 GHz Down Converter the CBI, Dehradun was found that out of 150 nos half were not working, some odd 20+ were pasted without use or any output and some they said were given to Project Trishul (i.e 18 GHz project not 35 GHz) and rest to CERI, Pilani. It is a complete eyewash.
x)            What was the DEAL’s  gain, all scientists who helped in procurement got outstanding reports and got promotions the main example Dr.KD Nayak presently holding post  of CC R&D and Mr. Sushil Kumar Verma presently Sc ‘F’ and recently posted to DRDO Hqrs with Dr KD Nayak, so they can again create a new gimmick.
After Pokhran Blast all pending orders of M/S Wave Components & Systems,  1409 W, Woodcrest, Fullerton  CA 92833, USA  were converted in RE and diverted to garment and rice exporter firms belongs to Dr. Bains landlord Lt Col Deepak Badhwar.

Lt.Col Deepak Badhwar, Resident of 37/7, Vijay Colony, Dehradun owns both the above firms. He is a regular visitor to US, and good friend of Dr. A.S.Bains, Director, DEAL, DRDO, Dehradun ( As IB report revealed the facts) and also related with Mr. Moti Kapur of 4804- Astreria, Torrance, CA – 90503, this address they used for another firm M/s S.K. Components for quotations game.
Just to compete the coram for quotation formalities they included two more firms name which do not exist in US.( I have collected sufficient evidences in respect which can be produce to government investigation agencies)

Residence of Dr. Gautam Jha, MD and well known medical practitioner at Salem, US and have no connection with any electronics business activity.
Dr. AS Bains also violated the govt. rules by asking quotation from US based firms during US sanctions for just route the money of poor tax payers of India.  Anyone can imagine the quotations are coming from US and TPC reflecting in the minutes these companies are well known firms in their field based on the DEAL’s procurement records.
Sir, have any finance rep ever asked about the credential of any firms or verify with any other lab or source, I can understand the pressure on other TPC members because they are from DRDO and always worried for their carriers.
Under the forging details there is no room to allow the culprits to go scot free. Anyone asks details from various investigation agencies who have worked in this respect and are perplexed. Please contact Major Chetri, then in-charge, MI, Dehradun, Mr. Bist, then SP, CBI, Dehradun, IB, Dehradun, Director, CAG, Dehradun.
This is a tip of iceberg if you people allow me to work with financial agencies for uprooting the corruption in DRDO; I can produce tons of information and info related to their modus of operandi.
8. Reasons/grounds for this appeal:
   i) It is clear cut case of corruption and national security interest.
ii) A holistic approach of expose the weak procurement process of DRDO as a façade.
             
9 Any other information in support of appeal:

Appeal to clean DRDO of corrupt and Anti national officials

Leave a comment
Dear friends,
 With the support of the true Indians we can save our premier defense organisation (DRDO) from the corrupt officials. I am appealing all my friends from DRDO to please support this blog and give your valuable inputs. It is required that we clean the problems of DRDO like nepotism and corruption. They are the root cause of DRDO’s failure in all fields. Friends, I have tons of evidences related to corruption, misinterpretation of rules and misappropriation of funds in DRDO.  I am fighting against corruption in DRDO, since 2000. I have submitted a series of evidences to all government agencies, but till date neither DRDO nor any government agency claimed that they are wrong. Now the RTI acts as the right tool to clean up corruption. With your blessing, I will post all evidences, letters and correspondences with all concern departments. The information from replies to the RTI’s I filed will be available for all the citizen of India. They can analyze the level of corruption in DRDO with the façade of secrecy.
