Poor HR of DRDO- The Great Nuclear Medicine Scientist Dr. A.K. Singh posted as Director of Personnel at DRDO HQ

Subject : Request to   utilized scientific potential of Dr. A.K. Singh, DOP, DRDO HQ to Lab/Estt under Life Sciences Cluster 

Hon’ble Sir,

Human Resource is an asset of an organisation and proper utilisation and deployment of its HR/Manpower is challenging job for an organisation especially on DRDO which holding very significant responsibility for the nation. In the past several years   DRDO cannot meet its target well within time and seeking extensions in PDC again & again in several major projects of national significance. This drawback of DRDO has been noticed by Hon’ble Ex-PM Dr. Manmohan Singh, Ex- Defence Minister Shri A.K. Antony, CAG, CGDA, Parliamentary Standing Committee on Defence (15th Lok Sabha). This has been also noticed and criticised by you in DRDO Award Function on 20th August 2014 by saying “Chalta Hai wala attitude nahin chalega“.

Poor HR planning and deployment of scientists in various Lab/Estt of DRDO is major reason for not delivering the products and timely completion of project. Almost each and every lab/Estt all sundry work (Admin/Stores/Security/MTO/Library/works/ conservancy etc) are managed by qualified scientist and technical officials (more than 15% of total strength of DRDO) Simultaneously they are drawing all perks which is provided towards incentive in the name of scientific encouragement and also enjoying flexible complementary scheme on promotions which is also strictly for those who dedicatedly involve in scientific and technical assignments.

HR of DRDO comes under CCR&D (HR) which consisted of DOP, DHRD, RAC, CEPTAM, DESIDOC, ITM, MILIT, DIAT, DPI and RTI Cell. Presently Dr. G. Malakondiah, Distinguished Scientist is holding the charge of CCR&D (HR) and he was convicted by Madras High Court for imprisonment of three weeks in case of contempt of court this the highest example of ignorance of constitutions provision.

One such example of poor HR planning of DRDO is of Dr. A.K. Singh, Director, Directorate of Personnel, DRDO HQ, New Delhi. Dr. A.K.Singh, Scientist ‘G’ is great Nuclear Medicine scientist of India with five patents granted, fourteen patents filed, one copy right and more than fifty publications in international & national journals.Bio-Data of Dr. A.K. Singh is annexed.

As a matter of fact, despite having so many scientific contributions in area of Nuclear Medicines which is primarily used for treatment of cancer, brain tumours and complex diseases.

Dr. A.K. Singh was basically recruited for projects of DRDO in its New Delhi based unique laboratory working in Nuclear Medicine, Institute of Nuclear Medicine and Allied Sciences (INMAS). He worked in INMAS till the year 2004 but all of sudden he was transferred in DRDO HQ and assigned non-technical clerical assignments like Staff Officer to CCR&D.

Since the year 2004, the great Nuclear Medicine scientist is working non-scientific work like Director, CEPTAM, Director, DHRD and presently DOP. The work assigned to Dr. A.K. Singh is of administrative nature for which DRDO is having it’s another HR cadre known as administrative cadre and from this cadre manpower should be appointed in DOP.

Being a bonafide life science scientist, Dr. A.K. Singh, DOP not having any expertise in field of HR, therefore, he made several wrong decisions due to which DRDO faces lot of embarrassment and bad fame in media, it also affected various officials of DRDO who are facing several court cases in various courts all over India, even 15th October 2014 he received notice from CAT Delhi for his misadventure towards a senior scientist who belong to minority.  This created lot of expenditure in term of fees to lawyers, TA/DA to attend court cases and cause of derailing scientific research tempo of DRDO.

Government of India is paying more than Rupees twenty lakhs to Dr. A.K. Singh, DOP for his non-productive and non-scientific work that can be carried out by any of the officer of Joint Director/Additional Director of DRDO from the admin cadre. DRDO wasting poor tax payers money.

Dr. A.K. Sigh is great Nuclear Medicine Scientist which is rare in DRDO. The discipline of Dr. A.K. Singh is from Life Sciences so proper utilization of his potential to  posted him in Laboratory/ Establishment of DRDO under Life Sciences Cluster so he can contribute more in the national interest.

There are nine (09) Lab/Estt under Life Sciences Cluster of DRDO spread over all India. These are DEBEL, DIPAS, DIPR, INMAS, DRL, DIBER, DFRL, DIHAR & DRDE. Life sciences scientists are 120+ out of 7500 total DRDO scientist’s strength so proper utilization of these 9 labs can only possible when all life science scientists dedicatedly posted in Life Sciences Cluster of DRDO not in HR related Corporate Directorate. Dr A K Singh qualified life science scientist but he convert his field into technical services in the official records while as per his biodata he is fit for life sciences activities.

Sir you know the maxim “wrong shoe in right leg- “. Similar is the case of Dr. A.K. Singh who has been wrongly posted in HR assignments of DRDO while he is great Nuclear Medicine scientist with international fame scientific contributions in Nuclear Medicine. He is very much required in Lab/Estt of DRDO that are working in specialization of Dr. A.K. Singh like Defence Research Laboratory, Tezpur, Defence Research & Development Establishment, Gwalior, DEBEL, Bangalore and INMAS, New Delhi. Since Dr. A.K. Singh had already worked in INMAS, New Delhi for more than 16 years and his experience was bitter at INMAS thereby he was expelled from projects and scientific assignments at INMAS, New Delhi. Therefore the ,most suitable  work places for getting output from his scientific knowledge and experience is DRL, Tezpur, DRDE, Gwalior and DEBEL, Bangalore.

Keeping in view of the facts stated above, to save public revenue and streamline HR of DRDO, it is very much required that scientists of the DRDO having educational qualification and experiences in life sciences should be posted in Lab/Estt under Life Sciences Cluster of DRDO.

Therefore I kindly and earnestly request you to start “operation clean- Swachta Abhiyan” in DRDO by transferring Dr. A.K. Singh, DOP from DRDO HQ to any of the Life Sciences Cluster Lab/Estt like DRL, Tezpur, DRDE, Gwalior or DEBEL, Bangalore so that poor & dirty  HR of DRDO may be rich & clean.

Prime Minister of India,
Room No -152, PMO, South Block,
New Delhi-110011

Subject:Shri Avinash Chander SA to RM , DG DRDO, Secretary (DRD)patronizing organized corruption in procurement by Dr. A. K. Saxena, Director, DMSRDE, DRDO, Kanpur.

Sir,

With reference to above I would like to submit following facts for your mission of corruption free India.

  1. DMSRDE, DRDO, Kanpur is involved in R&D of polycarbosilane (PCS) since more than 15 years. This material is used for high temperature applications etc.
  2. Polydimethylsilane (PDMS) in form of brisk white powder is used as precursor material required for synthesis of polycarbosilane. Initially the PDMS was manufactured in small scale (quantity)in DMSRDE itself by Scientists of DMSRDE.
  3. The development process of polycarbosilane from Polydimethylsilane (PDMS) was patented by DRDO vide Indian Patent No. 249015 against Indian Patent Application No. 2254/DEL/2004 and the patent was granted on 21 Sept 2011 and published on 30 Sept 2011.
  4. The manufacturing technology of PDMS and polycarbosilane is having only with few countries in world.
  5. When Dr. A. K. Saxena took charge as Director, DMSRDE in January, 2011, he started the procurementof Polydimethylsilane (PDMS) and till date in the period 01.01.2011 to 31.12.2013 he procured 227 Kg PDMS costing around Rs. 1,86,35,780.00 in DMSRDE. PDMS was purchased in DMSRDE @ Rs. 80,000/- per kg approximately.
  6. Procurement was done through 8 demands of limited tender, repeat order and one last order through open tender. The strange fact is that all seven orders of this rare material was placed to M/s Mangalam Traders, Kanpur and the eighth supply order was placed to M/s Paawani Speciality Chemicals, Kanpur which is again the family firm of M/s Mangalam Traders, Kanpur.
  7. As per DMSRDE’s inputs the PDMS material was prepared by ex-DMSRDE employee Shri I. P. Pal, Ex Technical Officer ‘C’ under guidance of Dr. A. K. Saxena under roof of M/s Mangalam Traders, Kanpur of which proprietor is   Mr. Manish Gupta and Director is his brother Mr. Anish Gupta.
  8. The Cost and quantity was so designed and architect as every time the order should not exceed in the tune of Rs. 50 Lakhs so it will always come under sanction power of Dr. A. K. Saxena, Director, DMSRDE, Kanpur.
  9. The Prices of PDMS First Order 4/2/2011 cost @ Rs 45000.00/Kg Second Order 27/4/2012 cost @ Rs 70000.00/Kg, Third Order 4/04/2012 cost @ Rs 75000.00/Kg, fourth order 9/02/2012 cost @ Rs 75200.00/Kg, Fifth order 6/09/2012 cost @ Rs 80000.00/Kg, sixth Order 26/02/2013 cost @ Rs 80000.00/Kg, Seventh Order 06/11/2012 cost @ Rs 77800.00/Kg, Eighth 17/12 2013 Order 06/11/2012 cost @ Rs 77800.00/Kg.
  10. The whole exercise of procurement of PDMS itself exposes the corruption and corrupt practices prevailing in DRDO.
  11. The various documentary evidences already exposed the nexus between Dr. A. K.  Saxena and owners of M/s Mangalam Traders and M/s Paawani Speciality Chemicals Shri Manish Gupta and Shri Anish Gupta.
  12. I have filed a complaint to CVC dated 11 June 2014 regarding corruption in PDMS procurements in DMSRDE and DRDO HQ made 1stFact Finding Committee than after few months’ days DRDO HQ made 2nd Fact Finding Committee. Till date no action taken against Dr. A. K. Saxena by Shri Avinash Chander, DGR&D, DRDO and Scientific Advisor to Raksha Mantri, DRDO Bhawan, New Delhi.
  13. Now it seems Dr. A. K. Saxena convinced or taken care of motivation of Shri Avinash Chander and seems he inspired your 15th August 2014 address that “mera kya” and boldly raised open tender vide DMSRDE/15552004 dated 1st September 2014 for procuring 60 Kg PDMS.
  14. As per sources the Gupta Bandhu of M/s Mangalam Traders and M/s Paawani Speciality Chemicals, Kanpur  arranged 90 Kg PDMS and as usual the case initiated within the sanction capacity of Director i.e. 50 Lakhs of 60 kg. It is understood that the supply order will go in favour of Gupta Bandhu in any cost. Rest 30 kg PDMS will be procured under repeat order of the order issued against this open tender of PDMS.
  15. It is completely established corruption case and enclosed procurement details clearly show the modus oprendi of Dr. A. K. Saxena, Director, DMSRDE. The said open tender dated 01 Sept 2014 should immediately be cancelled till finalization of inquiry by CVC.

Sir, It is requested that for sake of poor tax payers money to take appropriate exemplary action  so that Shri Avinash Chander not dare to patronize such corrupt scientists and whole DRDO fraternity could understand  your commitment against corruption.

Subject:  Alarming Situation in DRDO for HR Management

Reference: DOPT letter No.14029/1/2014-Estt.(L) dated 3rd September 2014.

Dear Sir,

               With reference to above subject and in the interest of larger public interest, the case study with evidences gathered by RTI replies from DRDO was submitted to then Defence Minister which subsequently endorsed to your department by then Defence Minister.

Surprisingly, today I have received above referred letter from your under secretary Sh S G Mulchandaney, in which he attracts my attention to DOPT OM No.11013/08/2013-Estt.(A)-III. (Copy enclosed for your ready reference)

It seems that your officials sitting there dealing such serious matter/ information blindly they even not bothered that it was duly endorsed by honorable minister. Can DOPT tell me that information submitted by me is related by any means with the DOPT OM No.11013/08/2013-Estt. (A)-III dated 6th June 2013.

It is requested that please take appropriate action to theses irresponsible officials who are trying to discourage honest approach for clean governance.

Reply by CVO, MOD regarding CEPTAM -06 DRDO Recruitment Scam

1 Comment

Following points were raised.

DRDO Hqrs made it a mockery and laughing object. DRDO has violated SRO from beginning of CEPTAM and there are several cases pending in CAT/High courts all across the India.

The recent recruitment drive tells a different story.

CEPTAM – 06 Advertisement Published in Employment News dated 04-10th May, 2013.

No of post advertised in various categories – 844

Approximately 5 lakhs application received (excluding hundreds of applications misplaced)

Approximately 1 lakh applications were rejected for silly reasons (example followed)

Approximately 2 lakhs candidates not able to appear for examination held on 25th August 2013

Approximately 3 lakhs candidates deprived by Sh Rajesh Goyal, Director, CEPTAM

It is very big question, how DRDO can give permission to Sh Rajesh Goyal, Director, CEPTAM to play with fundamental right of young citizen of India.

Please go through the following facts which clearly shows Sh Rajesh Goyal’s, Director, CEPTAM personal vested interest

The SMS game – All interested candidates who wish to apply for DRDO Entry Test, are compulsorily required to register themselves on mobile no. 56677 of CEPTAM by sending a SMS in this format CEPTAM First choice of Exam City Code Post Code Date of Birth as ddmmyy NAME (Leaving a space between first, middle and last name) Example: CEPTAM 15 0112 231283 Rupesh Kumar Goyal (Name of Director’s son, it is example of pure chamchagiri environment of CEPTAM). Why this SMS system introduced by Sh Rajesh Goyal, Director, CEPTAM
Approximately 5 Lakhs application received and each applicant paid Rs 3 for each SMS registration.

Total MONEY received by CEPTAM 15 Lakhs

The contract was cooked with M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS a computer peripheral supplier and well connected with Sh Rajesh Goyal since he was in ISSA. Anyone can verify these things with back record of firms supply orders vs with Sh Rajesh Goyal’s involvements. The M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS website http://milsys.co.in is shown the order of client list. If 5 lakhs applicants registered the MONEY was huge 15 Lakhs and in open MARKET bulk SMS service providers 6 to 7 paisa /SMS so any one can work out the play in this contract. The CEPTAM did not give this contract through DAVP shows the corruption angle.

No approval from competent authority to induct compulsory Mobile registration.
No tender floated by CEPTAM for bulk SMS service providing
No minimum 7 vendors address procurement policy of DRDO followed (Limited tender)
CEPTAM was not approached to DAVP empanelled SMS bulk service provider
M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS – Provides -Selling of Computers & Related Peripherals such as :Range of Desktops / Servers – IBM / HP / COMPAQ / ACER etc.Range of POS and Kiosk / Billing Machines – Panasonic / Epson,Multimedia Products e.g. Video & Audio Processing Cards, Website designing and hosting. Man power Solutions / Recruitment Solutions /Data Entry. Annual maintenance contracts (AMC)

The CVO MOD in reply of RTI revealed some facts and corrective steps suggested by MOD

Sh Rajesh Goyal was the chela of Dr A K Singh and following letter revealed the  lenient view taken by DRDO the main point of corruption nexus with M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS is not even mentioned. Now after  Sh Rajesh Goyal retirement suddenly M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS vanished from CEPTAM procurement scenario. Modi ji is true that every organisation respective heads starts to run their parallel system defying all government laid downs rules. In  DRDO you will find this culture in every lab the companies rises with new Director and vanished with his retirement and best part of this these beloved companies act like a Wall Mart from needle to missile parts are readily available with these new born companies.

Any candidate who deprived from this SMS or wrong address act can asked relief from court. Court certainly give fair chance to special written test for DRDO recruitment. Young friends unite and fight with these corrupt officials of DRDO, Modi ji with you he all ready said “न खाऊंगा न खाने दूंगा” please report your cases to PMO, if need any help contact any time  09411114879, prabhudoon@gmail.com

Invite white paper on DRDO’s current scenario

Sh. Narendra Modi,
Prime Minister,
Room No – 152, PMO,
South Block, NEW DELHI -110011

Subject: Invite white paper on DRDO’s current scenario.

Honorable Sir,

I have to submit following points for rejuvenate DRDO and give moral boost to real honest scientific work force for fruitful and meaningful system/ arms development for end application in three services.

  1. DRDO since its inception was committed to assist the active services and the defence production agency in modernization of front line technologies.
  2. Until 1980 the organization followed its road map which was evolved by Dr Kothari the then front line technologies to PM. Since then we fought three successive war with our neighbors and requirements of three services increased   many fold as they had to secure our borders from external threats,
  3. The demand on DRDO increased therefore, 52 defence R&D labs scattered across the India were established in phased manner. Primary importance was given to the development of long/short range missiles, tank equaling to world class technology, light combat aircraft, nuclear powered submarine, kilo class of warships.
  4. With foregoing objectives government of India in 1980 when Smt Indira Gandhi returned to power declared DRDO an integral part of defence working under secretary, DR&D, DG, DRDO and Scientific Adviser to Raksha Mantri. (the three combined post to be hold by single person)
  5. Simultaneously the annual budget of DRDO from Rs 64 crores was raised to 1100 crores in particular for establishing modern infrastructures and accelerates indigenous technology development of arms and ammunitions.
  6.  The enhanced fund and absolute power to SA to RM without accountability derailed the road map laid by Dr. Kothari the then adviser to PM. Prior to this the post of SA to RM was honorary post
  7.  Grabbing land in the name of defence and construction of buildings disproportionate to manpower was the prime work of DRDO top bosses after mid 1980’s. Since the omission commission is hefty every DRDO top officials focused upon the infrastructure development without justified the requirements or create fake requirement in the name of ongoing projects and this being continue till date. Annual maintainace and repairs of these unused infrastructures gulps the major chunk of DRDO annual budget.
  8. Presently in DRDO 99% officials are engaged with procurement cases and look for its completion on 31st march every year, however, they have forgotten the development of frontline technologies and some of the projects/ programs under taken in early 70’s which were suppose to completed by not later than 5 years from the date of sanction is still incomplete after 40 years the notable example are Arjun tank, GTX engine, Tejas, Nag, Akash, Trishul missiles etc.
  9. Due to weak government at the center nobody question the authenticity of prolong time taken for development of arms/ ammunitions etc.
  10. While successive SA to RM were able to justify the failures  and where the centre rewarded those with Padama Awards, such erroneous decisions encouraged the incompetency in DRDO and at one time before the Kargil War SA to RM authenticated the conceptual proving of the arms than the development of prototype. The justification was that “ we are 100 crores people nobody can attack on us”
  11. Immediately India witnessed the Kargil conflict in 1999 where the General Malik said “casualties in the conflict could have been reduced had the Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO) not come in the way”
  12. With this poor show of DRDO during Kagil war the then PM expressed unhappiness with then SA to RM and said “ अपना घर संभालिये सब कुछ ठीक नहीं चल रहा है”
  13. Today the condition is that the DRDO procurement policy 2006 duly approved by finance ministry is violated by top DRDO officials (SA to RM, Directors, Program Directors etc.) by splitting the orders to make them within their sanction power. Compromising the quality, favors to vendor by customizing specifications, managed foreign visits with help of suppliers all this result at the end short closing of the project without deliverable output.
  14. Now annually DRDO consuming not less than Rs 10000 crores but ultimate looser is country with poor tax payers. “DRDO has become social commitment” Former PM Sh VP Singh said in 2nd DRDO Director’s conference at Bangalore.

Honorable Sir,

A white paper may please be sought from DRDO and it should be made public so that 49% FDI in defence sector could be justified.

Following points to be justified

  1. Total asset of DRDO
  2. Annual Budget
  3. Lab wise manpower vis -a -vis Project/Programs (it will give the clear picture of delays in output)
  4. Products developed and its production and deployments in services for each lab (it will prove the worthiness of Lab)
  5.  Awards – vis a vis output of awardees
  6. Incentives given on product development ( this will expose the real talent)
  7. Patents – Granted/ applied
  8. Man power planned and its proportionate buildup accommodation lab wise
  9. Total cost of abandon equipments lab wise
  10. Statistical failure data analyzing and corrective measure for deployed project like LCA/Arjun Tank/Arihant/various Missiles.

Sir, this is a honest approach to clean DRDO from corruption as you said in Kargil  “Corruption is the worst plague that has ruined the country. Once it is rooted out, we will sail on the path of development smoothly,”

विषय : डीआरडीओ में ताजमहलो का निर्माण – दूसरी क़िस्त

माननीय श्री प्रधानमंत्री जी एक तरफ हम समाचार  पत्रो व् टी वी में पड़ते व् देखते  है कि

” Modi austerity drive, no new cars for ministers, PMO to monitor spending               by Marya Shakil, CNN-IBN Jun 25, 2014 at 08:57pm IST.

Modi, whose working style had garnered headlines in less than a month of assuming office, has also asked the ministers to take PMO’s approval for any purchases above Rs 1 lakh, according to sources.

वंही दूसरी ओर डीआरडीओ में ताजमहलो का निर्माण बदस्तूर जारी है I इसी सन्दर्भ में करप्शन इन डी आर डी ओ   वेबसाइट   को एक ईमेल द्वारा आज जानकारी मिली डी आर डी ओ  द्वारा कि लॉन्ग व्हीलर आई लैंड में करोड़ों रूपए खर्च करके सिर्फ चार अदद कमरो का एक वी आई पी गेस्ट हाउस का निर्माण कार्य जा रहा है जिसकी खास बात यह है कि उसके हर कमरे का डिजाइन दुबई के एक सात सितारा लक्ज़री होटल के कमरो के अनुरूप किया जा रहा है I

यह निर्माण कार्य 100 मजदूरो द्वारा रात दिन लगातार कार्य जा रहा है और अगले सप्ताह इस   गेस्ट हाउस का उद्घाटन होना है I यह सब निर्माण कर्नल सत्पथी के देख रेख में चल रहा है जो की लभग दस वर्षो से वंहा कार्यरत है  इसके अलावा एक लक्ज़री बोट भी किंग्स एंड क्वीन कंपनी से खरीदी  गयी है I क्या आपको लगता है की किंग्स एंड क्वीन की बोट में बैठ कर जाने से मिसाइल ज्यादा सटीक निशाना लगाएंगी I जंहा एक और सामान्य कर्मचारी सरकारी आवास समस्या से जूझ रहे है काफी लम्बी प्रतीक्षा सूची चल रही  है वंही दूसरी ओर इन  तथाकथित विज्ञानिको को विलासिता सूझ रही है I

आपसे नम्र निवेदन है कि शीघ्रता पूर्वक इन तथाकित वैज्ञानिको को देश के बहुमूल्य पैसो की बर्बादी से रोके सादगी का सन्देश दे क्योंकि कोई भी रिसर्च के लिए इन सब विलसिताओं की कोई भी आवश्कयता नहीं होती I सर जे सी बोसे ने कोई भी अविष्कार फाइव स्टार होटल में बैठकर नहीं किया था I

ऐसा न हो की आप अपने सांसदों  व् मंत्रियो को सादगी का सन्देश देकर  देश का लाखो रुपये बचाये और दूसरी ओर ये  तथाकित वैज्ञानिक देश का करोड़ो रुपये बर्बाद कर दे I

Prabhu ji, I want to inform S.A. saheb’s latest gift to himself a multi crore guest house with just 4 rooms with 7 star facility at wheeler island. He is going to inaugurate it next week. Each room is modelled as per designs from Dubai luxury hotel and more than 100 labourers are working day and night under Shri.Col. Satpathy who is the permanent Construction c.c.e. for the past ten years at the same sensitive and maney making post at Baleswar and Kolkata for the past 10 years. He has made similar seven star guest house in Kolkata also for his VVIP bosses to please them. A luxury boat(yact) is also being purchased for the Kings and queens of D.R.D.O. in Wheeler Island. Please do something to stop this. Like the fake degree scam, another big chunna to govt is by employees building houses in same station with H.B.A. and still staying in lab quarters by renting their house. Such like artificial scarcity of quarters is created and the waiting list is too long. moreover, taking this artificial shortage into account new quarters are being built by the construction department at exorbitant costs (much higher rates than C.P.W.D.)our department has become more of a construction dept. than R&D. That too contracts are issued only to some big fish contractors close to these corrupt officers without any transparency. When the whole country is following e-mail tendering, our dept. follows selective tendering. These construction engineers have even started taking projects from other than our dept. due to the huge kick backs provided in the over priced contracts. Please please do something otherwise we are going to be doomed. Wellwisher.

Subject: Request to provide facility of filing online RTI applications for DRDO and give directive to DRDO to Honor the RTI act 2005 in right spirit to promote transparency and accountability in the working of every public authority.

Reference:     (i)  My letter dated 16 April 2014 to Prime Minister with subject        “Unconstitutional act of DoPT officials who are managing the Online RTI Portal and supporting corrupt officers of DRDO”

                     (ii)   PMO reply ID No. 10/3/2014-PMP1/30140 dated 19th May 2014

Honorable Sir,

  1.  www.corruptionindrdo.com continues to expose the corruption/nepotism prevailing in DRDO since the last four years. DRDO’s honest officials send corruption inputs from all DRDO establishments and with help of RTI’s and from internet information, the corruption inputs are regularly passed to the government and relevant agencies like CVC, IB, CBI etc.
  2. www.corruptionindrdo.com’s efforts recognized by honest officials of DRDO and website regularly getting corruption/nepotism inputs from each and every corner of the country. On basis of the points raised by the website, DRDO also took several corrective measures and constituted inquiry committees for examining the truths.
  3. In my 16th April 2014 letter I have requested Honorable Prime Minister to kindly take appropriate corrective measures against officials who are involved in unconstitutional acts and give strength to RTI- Act 2005. It has really empowered the common man. Also, fix those who are diluting the effectiveness of  the strong RTI Act -2005.
  4. The online RTI portal “Guideline – An applicant who desires to obtain any information under the RTI Act 2005 can make a request through this RTI Online Portal to only the Central Public Authorities of main Ministries/Departments located at New Delhi initially”. In the first phase, this facility is available to Ministries/Departments/Apex Bodies mentioned in the list available in ‘GUIDELINES’, but there is no list available in RTI portal. Like Defence Ministry having several offices in  New Delhi
  5. Sir, I have received a letter from DoPT Letter No.6/1/2014-IR dated 6/6/2014 copy to Sh Kaushal Kishor Pandey, SO, PMO, New Delhi in respect of reply my letter dated 16 April 2014 to Prime Minister with subject “Unconstitutional act of DoPT officials who are managing the Online RTI Portal and supporting corrupt officers of DRDO”
  6. In DoPT letter Sh R K Girdhar, Under Secretary (RTI) stated that “if you not satisfied with the reply of CPIO, may filed appeal before the first appellate authority in the same public authority u/s 19(i) of the RTI Act 2005” it seems that the letter forwarded by PMO was not even read by Sh R K Girdhar. It shows the seriousness of DoPT regarding RTI issues or Sh R K Girdhar just trying to shield the nodal officer.
  7. I have enclosed the remark of nodal officer not CPIO that they have returned with “You have filed more than 40 online RTI applications relating to DRDO on the address of Department of Defence which has been physically transferred to DRDO under intimation to you. DRDO is a separate public authority and is also placed under Second Schedule of the RTI Act, 2005. Therefore, your online RTI applications seeking information in r/o the DRDO and sent to Department of Defence will not be acted upon henceforth. You may directly send your application to the DRDO for the information.”
  8. Sh R K Girdhar, just overlooked the letter contents and send regular fixed reply without applying any mind. I don’t know RTI Act 2005 is a serious responsibility or just for feeding papers.
  9. Sir, after exposing the corruption / nepotism of DRDO’s senior officials because RTI Act-2005. Some officials suspended, some got charge sheet and some are in queue. Now DRDO officials are trying to make a wall for RTI Act 2005. Recently an unconstitutional letter issued by Dr. R B Sharma, CPIO, DRDO, Hqrs Cell on 8th March 2014 to all establishment/Lab show that they clearly made their policy not to give any RTI reply. (Copy enclosed) As per Sh R K Girdhar in one RTI reply in reference to that “any CPIO can compel to other CPIO not to give information under RTI” he stated that “There is no such policy of compelling or a CPIO being compelled by other PIO for not providing information to the information seeker. A PIO can be penalized by Information Commission under Section 20 of the RTI Act, 2005.”
  10. Further in 28th May 2005 a meeting was held under DRDO transparency officer Dr. Sudershan Kumar, DS and CC R&D (PC & SI). In that he told to all DRDO’s CPIO not to supply any information under RTI Act-2005. It can be verified by records of DRDO RTI cell that no information was passed after this decision to any RTI applicant.
  11. DRDO is in neck deep corruption/ nepotism/ favoritism and the reason being this DRDO is unproductive since last 15-20 years, don’t believe their data and dabas because when our forces will be ready to accept those then only our country will believe on DRDO, otherwise it will  be only ok for 26 January  republic show  tableau .
  12. In view of the above, I request you Sir, the RTI is the only effective way to restrict corruption in DRDO. Please give directives to DRDO & DoPT to honor the RTI act 2005 in the right spiritto promote transparency and accountability in the working of every public authority.

DRDO Corruption – Modus Operandi example prevailing corruption in DRDO labs

Subject: DRDO Corruption – Modus Operandi example prevailing corruption in DRDO labs

Honorable Sir,

  1. www.corruptionindrdo.com continues exposing the corruption/nepotism prevailing in DRDO since the last four years. DRDO’s honest officials send corruption inputs from all DRDO establishments and with help of RTI’s and from internet information, the corruption regularly passed to government and relevant agencies like CVC, IB, CBI etc.
  1. DRDO has a great and noticeable procurement culture. Rice exporter supplying sophisticated missile/high end parts or tent suppliers supplying rare chemicals or mostly cases the computer AMC holder become expert high end laser to xyz supplier.
  1. Almost a dozen corruption cases of Defence Materials & Stores Research & Development Establishment (DMSRDE), DRDO, Kanpur were submitted to CVC.
  1. CVC as a routine practice forwarded these complaints to CVO, MOD and MOD forwarded to CVO, DRDO.
  1. CVO, DRDO working under DG, DRDO, his ACR/APAR and career depends upon the hands of DG, DRDO. Secondly in DRDO the CVO assigned to Brigadier Ajay Gupta and it is observed that DG, DRDO used to pressurize his army channels through Lt. Gen who are posted in DRDO.
  1. In DMSRDE corruption case DG, DRDO made a Fact Finding Committee consisting all yes men. Not a single person from outside like PCDA, CGDA, CAG was included. The result was that the fact finding committee gave a clean chit to Dr. A.K. Saxena, Director, DMSRDE, DRDO, Kanpur as Dr. A.K. Saxena submitted affidavit to court that “ Fact finding committee has been constituted by DG, DRDO which has also not found any truth in any complaints”
  1. It is very heartening to know that if honest citizens contributing to Governments anti- corruption movement put all their strength, time, life at stake and some incompetent officials throw it in the dustbin. Besides, all complaints were submitted with all evidences.

Sir, once again without losing courage still submitting a complaint with evidence to CVC through your good office. Hope the matter will be taken seriously as everyone in this country remembers our “KARGIL WAR” and then General Malik uttered “casualties in the conflict could have been reduced had the Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO) “not come in the way”Jai hind!

  1. DMSRDE procured 227 Kg Polydimethylsilane (PDMS) costing worth Rs. 1,86,35,780.00 during the period 01.01.2011 to 31.12.2013. The whole supply of PDMS was made by M/s Manglam Traders, Kanpur and M/s Paawavni Speciality Chemicals, Kanpur. Both of the firms are owned by Mr. Manish Gupta & his family members.

Copy of the letter is enclosed as Annexure-2.
  1. Dr. A.K. Saxena, Director, DMSRDE, DRDO, Kanpur planned the procurement cases in such a way that total cost of the Supply Order remain just below Rs. 50 Lakhs (the financial power of Director) and split the consolidated demands in small demands to keep the cost of Supply Order below Rs. 50 Lakhs.
  1. Total numbers of eight demands were raised from various indenters in DMSRDE for procurement of PDMS. Five demands in limited tender basis and two repeat orders and one in open tender. But the best part is whole exercise by fooling all laid down procurement system in all cases then  bagged by M/s Manglam Traders, Kanpur and M/s Paawavni Speciality Chemicals, Kanpur (both firms same owner), it clearly shows the manipulation level of  DMSRDE officials.pdms demand1 pdms demand2 pdms demand3

7.     Criminal Conspiracy, gross violation & subversion of Purchase Management 2006 for Corruption took place in procurement of 60 Kgs PDMS by Open Tender Reference   Number DMSRDE/13552064 dated 13.06.2013. Details of the case have been mentioned in above Demand-8. Other details regarding conspiracy & Corruption in procurement are given below.

Out of these two firms Manglam Traders & Paawavni Specialty Chemicals, Kanpur is family firms of one man Mr. Manish Gupta.
  • The third firm Dhankar Enterprises bids for support for to the M/s Paawavni Speciality Chemicals   because M/s Dhankar Enterprises was registered at DMSRDE, Kanpur in year 2013   with registration number DMSRDE_013/02C/35_10L in category Chemical & Instruments with capacity of 10 Lakhs. This firm Dhankar Enterprises, Kanpur is registered with UP Commercial Tax Department with TIN 09645200799 dated 14/05/1998. This vendor is not registered for commodity name Chemicals.

  • It is requested to kindly check the import list of M/s Mangalam Traders because Polydimethylsilane is a rare chemical not manufactured in India, from where and what cost M/s Mangalam Traders managed the supplied Polydimethylsilane.
  • It is also requested that please check whether supplied chemical is as per required specification or not because once the supply of   M/s Mangalam Traders was rejected on the basis of specification by indenter Sh.J. N. Srivatava (Demand No.: DMSRDE/13PPD010) and after that Dr A K Saxena made a committee and same supply was accepted.
