Alarming Situation in DRDO For HR Management

To                                                                                                         31st March 2014
Sh A K Antony,
Defence Minister,
Room -104, South Block
New Delhi – 110011

Subject:  Alarming Situation in DRDO For HR Management

DRDO has established more than 52 Labs/Establishments across the country with an aim and object to provide reliable & sustainable warfare technologies to the defence forces.

In its pursuit to evade the frontline technology, DRDO encourages its employees and officials to pursue higher qualification and provides all possible incentives as per GOI rules and guidelines.

DRDO Hqrs/ top brasses however, misuses the GOI facilities and encourages the diploma/ degrees from unrecognized universities/institutes for their pet employees (Chamchas), largely the cases are from the universities which are recognized by the UGC/AICTE but the courses offered by these in the mode of distance education, where the study centers / franchises are not properly authorized by UGC/AICTE or Apex body. Most of the cases in DRDO, these Diploma /Degrees are managed fraudulently because it is observed that employee who claimed the diploma / degree not having proper marks sheets, not having proof of proper fee receipts, not having leave records as per exam date sheets, not having admit cards of centers/ and n numbers of ways to verify the degree/ diploma etc.

Surprisingly, you will be shocked to know that these diploma / degree holders have become senior scientists and in DRDO, almost 10 to 15% in total staff / Technical officers / scientists possess such diploma/ degrees etc.

The growing incompetency and failure of projects causes shift towards system engineering. Since 15 years the basic science or fundamental research work has vanished from DRDO objectives, because of improperly qualified workforce.

The person inducted as laborer/peon/security assistant or technician, subsequently via limited departmental competitive examination (LDCE) channel and with the fake/unrecognized diploma / degree become scientist. It is all because of DRDO having their own recruitment and assessment system that is RAC & CEPTAM.

Sir, you already noticed few top scientists of DRDO misused the autonomy given to DRDOyou’re your good office recommended to reexamine the recruitment procedure of scientist in DRDO and asked for CBI intervention vide Ref- Note at 45-55 ante and observations of JS & CVO at note 56 ante.

RTI reveals that DRDO having such employees/ officers who don’t have proper recognized diploma / degree but no action was taken on this issue by DRDO Hqrs till date. (Copy enclosed for ready reference.)

In RTI reply No.01/2091/P2014/0054 dated 12 March 2014 DRDO Hqrs informed that “it is stated that the cases for grant of Lump Sum Incentive are received from respective Labs/Estt in which it is certified that the higher qualifications and the institute are approved by the competent authority. On receipt of such confirmation, the cases are submitted to Ministry of Defence who process each and every cases and issue sanction for grant of Lump Sum Incentives after getting concurrence of the Integrated Finance. However, in case of any doubt regarding verification/ reorganization, the same is thoroughly examined before issuing the sanction. It is also stated here that the lump sum incentive is only one time to promote higher qualification among employees.” (Copy Enclosed for ready reference)

Sir, the astonishing fact of DRDO working is revealed by Director of Personal vide letter No DOP/01/03500/Lump sum/M01 dated March 2014 to all Director Lab/Estt/ Dte in Hq dated 11 March 2014 in Para – 1, line- 9 states that Of late it has been notice that in most of the cases are taken up acquiring higher qualification, recognition of various courses and universities/ institutes by Competent Authority is not verified/ authenticated by Labs prior to sanction of permission. This non verification in the some cases results in award of degrees/ diplomas by Universities / Institutes not recognized by the competent recognizing authorities. Grant of incentives for such higher qualification becomes against the Rules”   (Copy enclosed for your ready reference.)

It is requested that suitable committee should be form under supervision of CVO, MoD to scrutinize the DRDO scientist, officials and staff’s education qualification records thoroughly, so the incompetent and illegally inducted persons can weed out.

DRDO already spends crores of rupees for digitizing HR records so it is not big task to scrutinize the DRDO’s 7000+ scientists, 25000 + officials and staff’s education qualification.

Assessment call for promotion to delinquent Scientists of DMSRDE Kanpur

To                                                                                            28th March 2014
Shri A.K. Antony
Defence Minister
Govt. of India, Min. of Defence
104, South Block, New Delhi

Subject : Assessment call for promotion to delinquent Scientists of DMSRDE Kanpur

Sir,

I have submitted eleven complaints to you regarding Corruption cases meted out by Dr. A.K. Saxena, Director, Defence Materials and Stores Research & Development Establishment (DMSRDE), Kanpur and several other Scientistsof this establishment working under Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO), Min. of Defence. Details of complaints along with involved Scientists are as follows:dmsrde rac

Based on my complaints to you a Fact Finding Committee was constituted by DGR&D and Scientific Advisor to Raksha Mantri to investigate my complaints and I have been informed by CPIO, DRDO regarding this. Copy of the letter No. RTI/01/2091/P/2014/0068 25 Feb 2014 from CPIO, DRDO is enclosed, Fact Finding Committee of DRDO yet to submit his report to DGR&D, DRDO.

The Fact Finding Committee under Chairmanship of Dr, S S Negi, Sc ‘H’, IRDE with as member Sh Manoj Bali, Sc ‘G’, Director, LIC, DRDO Hqrs and Sh Jagdeep, Sc ‘F’ Additional Director, DMM, DRDO Hqrs visited DMSRDE and inspected few files and interacted with scientists of DMSRDE. It is observed that the demeanor of  Fact Finding Committee was not appreciable, they treated the complainants unfairly because their mindset was prejudice and it is standard procedure in DRDO if someone want to give feedback about corrupt practice  of top officials they try to do their best for victimize such personnels. In this case the protest from complainants already present to DG, DRDO.

There are n numbers of examples, recently Sh Prakash Singh, SAO-II, LASTEC, who gave feedback of corrupt practices of Dr Anil Kumar Maini, Director, LASTEC and others,  the whole DRDO sit aside and they forcibly gave CRS to Sh Prakash Singh but grace of GOD you intervene the situation and save the service of honest person. Surprisingly, Dr Anil Kumar Maini is living DRDO from 31st May 2014 as he applied VRS and got sanctioned. His retirement was due on 31st Jan 2015, Big question what is the hurry, or he is maintain the LASTEC legacy, his predecessor was also took VRS.

In this case the Fact Finding Committee Chairman Dr, S S Negi, Sc ‘H’, IRDE is a pro management, yes man recently in Dehradun he set a unprecedented example as Chairman of ASCODAR committee. While handling a very sensitive issue of SC Community he tried to harass Sh Jagdish Kumar, TO ‘C’ by pressurizing him to give power point presentation to prove himself for 94 marks in APAR, which was not in the purview of ASCODAR. This act was done only in pressure of Sh R C Agarwal, Director, DEAL, Dehradun (Fax copy enclosed)

How can honest persons believe that Dr, S S Negi, Sc ‘H’, IRDE will give justice to his assignment of Chairmanship of Fact Finding Committee. Hope GOD will give him strength to come out from grip of corrupt gang of DRDO.

Besides this above mentioned my all complaints has been registered at CVC and Director (VIG.), Ministry of Defence is inquiring the complaints. In this connection I got letter No. CVC/RTI/13/1862/249925 dated 18th March 2014 from CVC.  “All complaints sent to CVO, MoD for further action.

Sir, this year in DRDO following delinquent Scientists of DMSRDE involved in Corruption got assessment call for promotion vide RAC, DRDO letter No. RAC/08/05/AB/M/2014 dated 12 March 2014.  Details are as follows:dmsrde rac2

Sir, DRDS Rules 1979 as amended are applicable for Recruitment & Promotion   in case of DRDS cadre (Scientists) and FCS is fully applicable in DRDO. As per DOPT OM No. AB-14017_37_2008-Estt-RR.pdf dated 10 September 2010 page 6 Para (ix)     and Page 9 Para(4) it is clearly stated that “Scientists/ Technical experts doing management/ administrative work in the Ministries should not be considered for up gradation under FCS, they should only be given benefit of up gradation under MACP”. Then how these corrupt officers got outstanding report and outstanding call despite being involved in Administrative/Management/Non-Scientific work. These officers got reward from Dr. AK Saxena, Director for indenting and clearing the cases of procurement that resulted Corruption in tunes of crores.

Sir, I therefore kindly request you to issue order to DGR&D, DRDO and Chairman, RAC to take appropriate action as per laid down direction of GOI for appearing in Assessment-2014 for DRDS till they got clearance from Vigilance (MOD) and Fact Finding Committee of DRDO.

Sh Avinash Chander in his reply to press question regarding engaging scientists in allied work justified but he forgot that VI Pay commission gave all incentives to scientists who are engaged in scientific work not for those who are working as clerk and wasting our country’s  poor tax payers money.

Unfortunately, DRDO top management encouraging scientists to work as managerial task, like HR, Admin, Stores, Security etc for long durations and scientists who are involved in such tasks are getting outstanding promotions without any scientific contributions. Dr A K Singh, DOP, Dr R K Jain, Director, RAC are exemplary examples to all DRDS scientists.  Result the real scientists either leaving the organization or dumped un-utilized or frustrated and every ugly acts are coming out from organisation.

Appropriate early action is requested, I would like to thanks you for recommendation of CBI investigation in DRDO recruitment scam for 10 top DRDO officials and also recommendation for alternate recruitment mechanism instead of RAC.

The 38th DRDO Directors’ conference (25th -26th March 2014) – Hidden Agenda

Over time now the shape of DRDO Directors’ conference has become more like a dealer’s meet.  Day after day mismanagement, corruption, incompetency and lack of responsibility are increasing in DRDO.

The superfluously  increasing number of court cases are giving red signal to top DRDO brass, but they are following great lines, Don’t See (corruption/ manipulations/ hatred toward SC community or weaker section/ Nepotism ), Don’t Hear (feed backs/grievances),  Don’t speak (Good words)

The concept of participating in conferences with wives and thereby waste huge amount of poor taxpayers’ money in the name of corporate management meet.

Hope in 40th DRDO Directors’ conference directors will attend conference with their sons and daughters, son in laws, daughter in law or with ………. Because the aim and total object is exploit the funds. No common Indian can imagine the expenditure of Nehru Park morning walk.

Starting from morning walk dressed with DRDO track suits with the aim of reviviscence / reincarnation but they look like under heavy encumbrance and look towards each other for race of H to DS, for Director to DG, extension, extension to contract, or finally post in any deemed university because the great institutions are not going to entertain such scraps.

The end of each and every corporate meet always shows productive results but in the DRDO Directors’ conference the directors learn  good manipulation techniques to wring the suppliers from  their extra ordinary expert colleagues, how to put their wards/ kith & kins in DRDO (already 10 top ex  brass are under CBI lens),  how to rafa dafa complaints (LTC 80 is one), how to use flying mileage points in personal use, how to manage PhD’s from deemed university by distributing funds from CARS or project funds, how to manage foreign tours by forge/ false inventions from foreign universities, best ways of plagiarism, how to manage one or two rebellions (common figure in DRDO now  the figure is increasing in few labs like DMSRDE, DRDE may be some short of chemical reaction), how to get fast VRS if some audit objections start targeting, how to manage fake degrees cases as DOP already sent a letter in this regard No DOP/01/03500/Lumpsum/M/01 dated 11th March 2011.

So beware all DRDO officers /staff only honest ones (not Chamchas) after two days all directors will return from 38th DRDO conference with sharpened skills………etc.

Happy conferencing …………..

Bangalore: Ex-DRDO technical officer’s son held for killing scientist’s wife

Express
Bangalore, Mar 12: Byappanahalli police arrested the alleged murderer of a home-alone woman within six hours of the crime on Monday.
The victim Rajani Rajabala (60) was married to Amrit Packia Dhas, a senior scientist at DRDO.
The accused Vijayan(33) is the son of Ramanirutam, a retired technical officer at Electronics and Radar Development Establishment. Police said Vijayan, employed as a helper at an NGO, had incurred debts and was finding it difficult to provide for his family. He planned to sell Rajabala’s ornaments to raise some money.
Vijayan was acquainted with the Dhas family as he stayed at the DRDO residential complex in the quarters his father was allotted. An SSLC dropout, Vijayan later married a Manipuri woman against his parents’ wishes and was living separately with his wife and two children in a rented house at Agara near Horamavu, from where he was nabbed.
Murder for Gain
Police said in the last 10 days, Vijayan visited Rajabala twice and asked for `2 lakh but she refused to give him the money. He then demanded `60,000 a week ago to pay his credit card dues. As Rajabala refused to budge, he hatched a plan to kill her and steal her jewellery.
Vijayan planned the murder well in advance and purchased a knife before heading to Rajabala’s house Monday on the pretext of taking her help for a documentary. He told her that he was directing a documentary and one of the scenes was that of a woman ending her life over differences with her husband.
Police said Vijayan convinced Rajabala to write a death note in this regard and she wrote it in Tamil. He then blackmailed her using that note, threatening to kill her if she did not give him the money. He told her no one would suspect his role behind her death as she wrote the death note, police explained. However, Rajabala did not heed his threats and Vijayan slit her throat. Neighbours who heard Rajabala scream rang the door-bell. In his hurry to escape, Vijayan dropped the suicide note and stole her two gold chains, before jumping from the balcony on the third floor, police said.
Though he was injured, Vijayan managed to walk till the main road and took an auto and reached home. He told his wife he met with an accident and after changing his clothes, went to a nearby clinic. He gave the doctor the same explanation.
However, in his haste to flee, Vijayan left his two-wheeler at the DRDO residential complex as he lost its keys at the spot. Based on the vehicle’s details, the police traced Vijayan. He was taken to a hospital as he sustained multiple injuries, including damage to his spinal cord, while jumping off from the third floor of the building.
