Subject: Conspiracy and propaganda for reverse technology transfer to USA by forged TOT of EDK by DRDO under guidance of Shri Avinash Chander, DGR&D, DRDO and SA to RM, Secretary, DRD

Sir,

  1. HEMRL, Pune is one of the establishments of DRDO working on R&D of High Energy Materials and it developed the technology of EDI. DRDO patented the technology of Explosive Detection & Identification through Indian Patent Office by Patent Application No 524/DEL/1996 dated 12-Mar-1996 for

“A PROCESS FOR EXPLOSIVE DETECTION AND IDENTIFICATION”.

The patent granted vide patent no 238663 dated 16 Feb 2010.

As per GOI website Inventors of the said patent were RABINDRA KUMAR SINHA, USHA DEVI RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, HIRA LAL YADAV and JAMAN SINGH GHARIA    .

Copy of Patent is enclosed as Annexure-I

Astonishing fact is that HEMRL falsely credited Ms Reny M Roy, Scientist C as innovator of EDK vide their letter No HEMRL/TS/3341 dated 8 March 2010. Copy of the letter is enclosed as Annexure-II.

  1. DRDO signed licensing agreement for explosive detection kit with an Indian company, Vantage Integrated Security Solutions, Noida. The company basically working in area of CCTV, they import in kit form and assemble in Noida, no any connection in explosive, basically the company is instrumental for EDK propaganda because of  Mr Panrav Verma’s (Owner) close proximity with corrupt DRDO officials who are using this company for CCTV applications for all over DRDO labs.Company’s website is self explanatory http://www.vantagesecurity.com/.
  1. The expose of special audit by CGDA in 2012  jolted DRDO in each and every level subsequently Dr V K Sarswat, DG DRDO failed to get further extension and relived on 31st May. Indian media criticized the misadventures of DRDO corrupt practises especially by top scientists.
  1. To divert the attention of country and media as well as politicians Sh Avinash Chander made big international propaganda of EDK Reverse Technology Transfer to US which was already signed MOU between then HEMRL, Pune’s Director, Dr. Subhanadnanda Rao and Mrs Fay Crow, President of Crow & Crow Co, on 25th April 2011. Copy enclose as evidence.
  1. Crowe and Company, LLC, a woman-owned, very small LLC, registered in   SUMMERVILLE, South Carolina in 20th November 2007, net base company as per company website crowderscustomizing.com involve in business of car accessories, marketing & management consultancy. As per data available in internet the company turnover only $ 100000 only has two employees etc.
  1. DRDO designed a high profile drama involved Indian Embassy, Washington, DC US chamber of commerce, FICCI, India to fool the country.
  1. DRDO wasted lakhs of lakhs Rupees organised lunch for 1000 people, DRDO team under leadership of Sh Avinash Chander consisting more than 12 persons visited US, then Indian Ambassador Mrs Nirupama Rao gave dinner party for these DRDO team and Fay Crowe team.
  1. Interestingly such big defence organisation of India signed second time same MOU with Mrs Fay Crowe, CEO who was present there with her mother, sister and daughter. India’s achievement was the photo session of Sh Avinash Chander only.
  1. Explosive Detection & Identification (EDK) is nothing but as usual bluff of DRDO, because DRDO is mastering in bluffing the country and the KARGIL War was the eye opener for the country. But because of lack in vision of UPA government corrective measure not taken and DRDO got liberty to fool the country.
  2. Again DRDO trying to lipapoti on EDK by sending again to US Ms Reny M Roy, Scientist C and one Technical Officer Mr Satish Nayak to do some gimmick with Ms Fay Crowe and waste some precious poor tax payer money
  3. The enclosed documents, photographs, news paper clips are self explanatory of this conspiracy of DRDO.
  4. The justification of this exercise from DRDO is need not important because whole world now knows the bluff of DRDO team this game was done only to distract the attention of media and public from DRDO failures, corruptions and CVC, CVO investigations.

It is requested a thorough investigation may be ordered to stop this kind of misadventure by DRDO, because of this country will face embarrassment situation of our country in international platform.

डीआरडीओ में श्री अविनाश चन्दर, वैज्ञानिक सलाहकार की चल रही है जागीरदारी (Example of Sh Avinash Chander’s feudalism in DRDO)

विषय : डीआरडीओमें श्री अविनाश चन्दर, वैज्ञानिक सलाहकार द्वारा जागीरदारी

माननीय श्री प्रधानमंत्री जी यह एक बड़े खेद का विषय है कि इतने महत्वपूर्ण संगठन के शीर्ष अधिकारी श्री अविनाश चन्दर जी ने सारी नैतिकताओं को दर किनार करते हुए डीआरडीओ में अपनी जागीरदारी चला रखी है।

आपने दिल्ली में जो देख कर जनता को लालकिले से अपना अनुभव बताया कि सब विभागों में अपनी अपनी जागीरदारी चल रही है वह एक पूर्ण सत्य है।

श्री अविनाश चन्दर जी ने अभी कुछ समय पहले एक वैज्ञानिक ‘जी’ पद में बहुत ही मनमाने ढंग सब नियत मानको की अनदेखी कर रिटायर कमोडोर सरोज पटेल की नियुक्ति करी है।

श्री अविनाश चन्दर जी ने रिटायर कमोडोर सरोज पटेल की सिर्फ नियुक्ति ही नहीं करी बल्कि  डीआरडीओ के 507 वरिष्ठ वैज्ञानिक ‘जी’ की वरिष्ठता को दरकिनार करते हुए श्री पटेल को नियुक्ति के चार दिनों में डायरेक्टर के पद में भी बैठा कर वैज्ञानिको का मनोबल  गिरा दिया है।

पूरे देश ने कारगिल जंग के समय डीआरडीओ की असफलताओ को देखा था और सबको जनरल मालिक के शब्द याद है ” डीआरडीओ के वजह से सेना वेपन लोकेटर रडार नहीं प्राप्त हो पाया और जिसके कारण  सेना को अपने इतने जवान खोने पड़े”

आपसे आशा है की निम्न प्रेषित उक्त नियुक्ति की धांधली के पूर्ण विवरण को सी वी सी को जाँच के लिए आदेश देंगे जिससे डीआरडीओ के समर्पित वैज्ञानिको का मनोबल बढ़ सके और वे देश की विकास में भागीदारी में अपना पूर्ण योगदान कर सके।

Sir,

Nepotism, favoritism, corruption and manipulations with vested interest in higher recruitment by misusing powers by HOD are very common practices now days in Government system by different means.

Based on the practices stated above, the Recruitment Scam-I occurred in DRDO in which several top Scientists including some ex-DGR&D, ex-CCR&D, ex-Directors and their daughters & relatives were involved. Several complaints were made to CVC & Defence Minister regarding Recruitment Scam-I and consequently CVC advices disciplinary action against Dr. Arun Kumar, Ex-DOP under major penalty vide OM No. 010/DEF/039/184877 dated 23.08.2012.(Copy enclosed-I).

Dr. Arun Kumar was suspended on the last day of his superannuation. Similarly some other Scientist Dr. S M Veerbhadrapa, Ex-Director, DTRL then HRD Charge Sheeted and Smt Chandra bano, Scientist ‘F’, DHRD was dismissed from service just 12 days before retirement. Since top ten officials of DRDO involved in Recruitment Scam-I were retired therefore on advice of Director (Vigilance) & CVO, Min. of Defence , then Defence Minister recommended CBI probe in Recruitment Scam-I of DRDO vide Dte (Vigilance), MOD note no.48-55 ante observations of JS & CVO at note 56 ante in November 2013. The news was published in media. Copy enclosed (II).

Shri Avinash Chander then CCR&D(MSS) also played an important role in Recruitment Scam-I while being member of expert committee under Chairmanship of Prof. SK Salwan, he gave clean chit to his friend Dr. Arun Kumar , ex-DOP vide his report dated 08.06.2011.

This case is regarding illegal recruitment with motivated planned conspiracy of Shri Avinash Chander, DG, DRDO and SA to RM, Dr. A.K. Singh, DOP and Smt. Hina Gokhle, Director, DHRD and Dr. RK Jain, Director, RAC and Dr. DN Reddy, Chairman, RAC.

BRIEF FACTS OF THE COMPLAINT

  1. Shri Avinash Chander, DS was Director, ASL, Hyderabad from August 2005 to May 2011. He was appointed as CCR&D (MSS) in DRDO HQ and was holding position of no. 2 after Dr. V.K. Saraswat, then DGR&D and SA to RM. Shri Avinash Chander took over as DGR&D, DRDO and SA to RM wef 31 May 2013 after superannuation of Dr. V.K. Saraswat.
  2. Smt. Tessy Thomas was working in ASL since its foundation and she was subordinate to Shri Avinash Chander when he was Director, ASL, Hyderabad. Smt Tessy Thomas was promoted to Scientist ‘H’/Outstanding Scientist wef 18 October 2013. She was appointed as Director, ASL, Hyderabad wef 25 July 2014.
  3. As a matter of facts, the competent authority in DRDO for appointment of Directors of Lab/Estt and Directorates at DRDO HQ is Shri Avinash Chander DGR&D, DRDO and SA to RM.
  4. Shri Saroj Kumar Patel, husband of Smt Tessy Thomas, OS (now Director, ASL) was serving in Indian Navy as Commodore and retired from Indian Navy on 31 January 2013. To oblige Smt Tessy Thomas, Shri Avinash Chander, then CCR&D(MSS) misused his position and succeeded in creation of a vacancy of Scientist ‘G’ in DRDO HQ and applications for this vacancy of Scientist ‘G’ were sought vide RAC Advt No. 110/December 2012.

  1. This malpractice for recruitment of Shri Saroj Kumar Patel was exposed by some senior Scientist ‘G’ of DRDO by writing complaint to Hon’ble Defence Minister in 2013 and therefore the plan of Shri Avinash Chander failed due to seriously  consideration of the matter by Dr. V.K. Saraswat, then DGR&D, DRDO and SA to RM.
  2. Shri Avinash Chander took over as DGR&D, DRDO and SA to RM on 31 May 2013 after superannuation of Dr. V.K. Saraswat. After acquiring full administrative & financial powers in DRDO, Shri Avinash Chander planned the recruitment of Shri Saroj Kumar Patel as Scientist ‘G’ in DRDO and therefore he planned a conspiracy of the illegal & motivated recruitment with help of his subordinates Dr. A.K. Singh, DOP, Smt. Hina Gokhle, Director, DHRD and Dr. DN Reddy, Chairman, RAC and Shri RK Jain, Director, RAC.
  3. Accordingly phase-II of the said conspiracy started by issue of Letter No. DOP/11/110059/QRSM/M/02 dated 14 August 2013 of Directorate of Personnel, DRDO, MOD, New Delhi on the Subject- Appointment of Director, QRS, DRDO HQ, New Delhi. Copy of the letter dated 14 August 2013 along with Proforma for Director, QRS, DRDO HQ, New Delhi is enclosed-IV.
  4. It was clearly mentioned in Para(1) of the letter that “Applications for the post of Director, Quality, Reliability & Safety(QRS) at DRDO HQrs, New Delhi are invited from SC ‘G’ promoted in the year 2013 having sufficient experience in the field of quality, reliability and safety. The Para 1 of letter is arbitrary, discriminatory, unethical and illegal in nature.
  5. No essential qualification, desirable qualification and years of experience were sought and mentioned in said DOP letter for the post of Director, QRS.
  6. Question arises why applications were invited only from the Scientist ‘G’ that were promoted in the year 2013 while in the seniority list of Scientist ‘G’ of DRDO as on 1st November 2013 there were 507 Scientist ‘G’ in total and out of which 114 were promoted in the year 2013 with effect from 01 July 2013? Copy of the seniority list of Scientist ‘G’ is enclosed-V. Why senior Scientist ‘G’ were not eligible for the post of the Director, QRS and under which rule DOP & DHRD decided that only junior most Scientist ‘G’ are eligible for the said post, while in appointments seniority plays an important role and senior most officers always  given priority.
  7. Mere reading of the letter dated 14 August 2013 issued from DOP establishes the conspiracy in recruitment. The letter was issued on 14 August 2013 and it was clearly mentioned in para (2) of the letter, reproduced as it is for ready reference “2. The applications should be duly forwarded/recommended by their respective Directors the enclosed profoma (Annexure-I) and must reach this office latest by 21st August 2013”. Hence only 6 days were provided to all Scientist ‘G’ of 52 Lab/Estt situated allover India right from Leh to Kochi and Vizag to Tezpur. The Para-2 is the clear violation of DOPT norms because period should be minimum 15 days.
  8. As a matter of fact 15 August was National holiday, 16th was Friday, 17-18 August (week end holiday), 19-21 August (three working days). Now three questions arises

(i)                 Why only 04 working days was provided to submit the applications for post of Director, QRS?

(ii)               What was the urgency to keep very short time for submitting applications?

(iii)             Whether it was possible in any circumstances that ink signed copy of the application duly recommended by respective Director be reach with in two-three days by speed post to New Delhi far from various Lab/Estt. Of DRDO.

  1. Answer to the questions raised in point(14) above is that applications were sought within DRDO simply to make formality and have a record that no Scientist ‘G’ applied for the said post or found eligible for the said post. It is matter of investigation by CVC from records that how many applications were received for post of Director, QRS, whether any list were prepared, whether any interview/interaction were organized, whether any committee scrutinized the proforma of Scientist ‘G’ and whether any Scientist ‘G’ was found suitable for the post of Director, QRS, DRDO Hqrs.
  2. In fact said post were preplanned for Shri Saroj Kumar Patel since the December 2012 therefore any Scientist ‘G’ out of 507 Scientist ‘G’ of DRDO was not selected for the post of Director, QRS, DRDO Hqrs and post remain vacant.
  3. Further to accommodate Shri Saroj Kumar Patel in DRDO an advertisement for post of Scientist ‘G’ were again issued by RAC, DRDO vide Advt. No. 112/October 2013 under direct recruitment scheme of DRDO under direction & guidance of Shri Avinash Chander with vested interest. Copy of the Advt No. 112/October 2013 is enclosed-VI.
  4. Shri Saroj Kumar Patel was recruited as Scientist ‘G’ in DRDO against the 01 vacancy of Scientist ‘G’ vide RAC Advt No. 112/October 2013 and joined DRDO at DRDO HQrs, DRDO Bhawan, New Delhi with effect from 27 March 2014 at seniority no. 486 among Scientist ‘G’ of DRDO.
  5. As a matter of fact Shri Saroj Kumar Patel joined DRDO as Scientist ‘G’ on 27 March 2014(Thursday) and appointed as Director, QRS, DRDO HQrs on 31 March 2014(Monday) so he worked only two days 27-28 March 2014 and jumped to post of Director only in service of 04 days. Shri Avinash Chander appointed Shri Patel as Director; QRS ignoring the 485 senior Scientist ‘G’ already available in DRDO and it establish favoritism & nepotism. It can only happened in DRDO.
  6. Now again four question arises

i.            Why Shri Patel was appointed as Director, QRS while he was recruited against vacancy of Scientist ‘G’ not for the post of Director, QRS by ignoring 485 senior Scientist ‘G’ in DRDO?

ii.            What is the specialization of Shri Patel which is not available with 507 Scientist ‘G’ of DRDO, can the conspirators able to justify?

iii.            Why so much favoritism was given to Shri Patel for his recruitment as Scientist ‘G’ and appointment as Director, QRS since October 2012 to March 2014 by Shri Avinash Chander?

iv.            What special benefit DRDO get from Sh Patel’s tailor made appointment?

  1. Keeping in view of the facts mentioned above and the subordination of Smt Tessy Thomas with Shri Avinash Chander right from several years in ASL, Hyderabad, it is crystal clear gross violation of recruitment rules, ethics and procedures took place and the same were not followed in recruitment of Shri Patel as Scientist ‘G’ on 27 March 2014 and further his appointment as Director, QRS on 31 March 2014. This smacks planned conspiracy and criminal misconduct by Shri Avinash Chander, DGR&D, DRDO, Dr. A.K. Singh, Director of Personnel, DRDO Hqrs, Smt Hina Gokhle, Director, DHRD, Dr. RK Jain, Director, RAC and Dr. DN Reddy, Chairman, RAC.
  2. Therefore, it is kindly requested that appointment of Shri Saroj Kumar Patel, Scientist ‘G’ should be cancelled with immediate effect and inquiry be conducted under Prevention of Corruption Act 1988 and CCS (CCA) Rules 1965 against the senior officers of DRDO involved in planned conspiracy of recruitment and appointment of Shri Saroj Kumar Patel as Scientist ‘G’ in DRDO and appointment as Director, QRS, DRDO HQrs.

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.

DMSRDE – Second Fact Finding Inquiry Committee 9th & 10th July 2014

2 Comments

It seems DRDO take U –turn in DMSRDE corruption cases. Shri AvinashChander , DGR&D and SA to RM constituted second four members  FFIC under Chairmanship of Dr. D C Pande, Outstanding Scientist, LRDE, Bangalore  and members Shri Haribabu Srivastva, Director, LASTEC, New Delhi, Shri R S Mehta, Joint Director, Dte of Vigilance& Security, DRDO Hqrs, Shri Jagdeep, Scientist ‘F’,Dte of Materials Management DRDO Hqrs  reached at Kanpur on 9th July early morning 5:00 AM at DMSRDE, Guest House, Kanpur by Rewa Express.

In deference to three members first FFIC which was led by Dr. S S Negi, Outstanding Scientist,this second FFIC did not entertained Dr. A K Saxena, Director, DMSRDE, Kanpur. Dr.Saxena  was sent for two days leave and remained in  his government residence just adjacent to Transit Hostel’s DRTC Room where whole FFI was  conducted for two days by FFIC.

The first FFIC Committee did their inquiry under supervision of Dr. A K Saxena in DMSRDE Office in the room just opposite to Dr. Saxena office so that he can monitor activities of first FFIC. Chairman & members of first FFIC tried their best to discourage complainants and in month of March 2014  all scientists were under pressure due to their APAR and coming assessment and not opened or uttered any single word against Dr. A K Saxena in front of   first  FFI Committee. The first FFI Committee overlooked the gravity of complaints to Defence Minister rather they were busy in digging the past history of complainants. They were basically misleded and managed by Dr. A K Saxena.

The letter No DOP/DS/008/M/01 dated 28 May 2014 of DOP Dr. A K Singh prepared on basis of first FFI Committee Report already exposed the nexus between Dr. A K Saxena and first FFI Committee because the without any constitution rights and ignoring the terms and condition of FFI Committee they simply recommended the transfers of both complainants with baseless and illogical reasons. It should be asked to Dr. S  S Negi, Outstanding Scientist that if on allegations of habitual  drinking one senior Scientist  may be transferred then what about the drinkers of whole DRDO right from top at DRDO HQ and bottom at 52 Establishment/Labs of DRDO. Why they have not been transferred even they are heavy habitual drinker. In fact first FFIC was  hijacked by  Dr. A K Saxena.

The two days grilling of involved scientists of DMSRDE by second  FFI Committee members especially by Shri Mehta, Vigilance, DRDO Hqrs shows some hope that the committee will help to Shri Avinash Chander , DGR&D and SA to RM and DRDO Hqrs to take one step forward towards eradicate prevailing corruption in DRDO like Dr A K Tyagi, Sc ‘G’ waiting to face CVC disciplinary proceeding against him as he also involved in corrupt practices in procurement at DIAT, Pune.

Some scientists of DMSRDE given in writing about the facts of these procurements and shows their helplessness.

Second FFI Committee also got advantage that the DRRDS result was declared and scientists who supported Dr. A K Saxena’s corrupt practices under pressure opened up and exposed the modus of oprendi adopted by Dr. A K Saxena.  FFI Committee also got inputs about nexus between M/s Manglam Trades, Kanpur (Mr.Anish Gupta/Mr. Manish Gupta) and Dr. A K Saxena in various procurement cases.

1.       Reactor case is open case that the procurement was done in coalition  with M/s Manglam Trades because all mails are the perfect evidences of corruption and DRDO Hqrs already aware that CBI, Lucknow have already got all evidences and approached MOD. Payment of Reactor case has not been made till so far even after 18 months the Reactor was installed in January 2013 at DMSRDE.

2.       The case of procurement of Laboratory Microprocessor Based Programmable High Temp.Furnace supplied by M/s   Omega Furnace Industries, Bangalore. In this case illegal Second TPC was done for recommending to make payment  to M/s Manglam Traders, Kanpur.( It can happen only in DRDO)

3.       Fume Hood Chamber procurement case is open example of looting in DRDO.

Common man are waiting to see the impact of new Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji’s Government on  DRDO, as Shri Avinash Chander Ji especially mentioned in his address in last JCM that “now new government has come and the accountability is also increased”.

It is coincidence that both FFIC having chairman from Uttarakhand and Uttarakhandies are famous for their honesty and devotion in service. We hope that like Dr. S SNegi, the Chairman of second FFIC Dr. D C Pande will not be hijacked by corrupt nexus of DRDO and he will do justice with DMSRDE people.

Dr. A K Saxena’s justification regarding Corruption of DMSRDE

VISHAKHAPATNAM –AP-532007

Subject: Complaint for irregularities in procurement of High Temperature Reactor dated 24th Dec 2013 to SA to RM, CVC, Defence Minister.

Reference: Dr. A K Saxena’s justification letter to you dated 22nd January 2014 on the above subject matter.

Dear Sir,

I have gone through the clarification of Dr. A K Saxena’s letter to you dated 22nd January 2014 on the above subject matter.

I am really shocked to see your concern and observations on corruption, although I once again am trying to convince as I belief that every human has honesty inside but needs to search for it within.

You will agree with me that whether Dr. A K Saxena’s involved and cooked the above procurement in an illegal manner or not.

In Point 2 he is writing in the above reference letter that “Never discussed, it is a false statement”

Dear Sir,

The line diagram attached is not exactly as per their offer, they have forwarded us            understand it will be somehow like the same.

As per our line of requirement they will send us in 2 to 3 days.

Regards

Anish Gupta

Attachment: 02

  • DMSRDE_Techno-Commercial_Reaction-unit -50lit-1.pdf
  • IPID0022.pdf

After seeing this mail you and I both have to accept that if Dr. Saxena is right then Mr. Anish Gupta has the supernatural power to know what the requirements of Project DRDM-552 are.

Dr. Saxena asked to file a complaint against me for spying. Actually it should be filed against Dr. Saxena’s  close friend and associate Mr. Anish Gupta, Partner of M/s Magalam Traders, Kanpur who is not only involved in this reactor case but several other procurement cases of DMSRDE like sample case-

Demand No. DMSRDE/13552009 for “Laboratory Microprocessor Based Programmable High Temp.Furnace” Item procured from M/s Omega Furnace Industries Bangalore, Item was duly supplied byfirm on 27th September 2013 vide RIN No 14LP0149 after all procurement process.

Like SPC, TEC, TPC 16th Jan 2013  etc, but suddenly M/s Manglam Traders comes in front and a review TPC was done,  under Chairmanship of  Dr. Sarfaraz Alam, Sc’G’              

para two of review TPC                                                                                                    

“Now, the firm M/s  Omega Furnace Industries, Bangalore has intimated that billing and supply of stores will be done by their local dealer M/s Manglam Traders, Kanpur, vide letter of even no dated September 24, 2013”

Para three of review TPC                                                                                                  

“The finance rep told that the stores have been supplied by M/s Manglam Traders, Kanpur. Hence, the payment may be made to M/s Manglam Traders, Kanpur”

Para four of review TPC                                                                                                       

“ In view of aforesaid TPC recommends the following

For-Supply the stores & payment may be made to M/s  Omega Furnace Industries, Bangalore Read-Supply the stores & payment may be made to M/s Manglam Traders, Kanpur

Sir, now tell me what else you want? As shown above, how does M/s Manglam Traders, Kanpur come in the picture? It is because of his supernatural power capabilities which are common phenomena of DRDO labs. Everyone knows the Director’s favorite vendors have super powers of respective Labs. They can interfere in any procurement case even if it is highly sophisticated missile parts or nuclear stuff or unattainable chemical (सुई से लेकर हाथी तक) etc.

Now the second proof which can expose the mechanism of corrupt practices adopted by Dr. Saxena’s friend with super powers is that he sent two mails to Sh. J N Srivatva, Sc ‘F’s mail id jn_sri<jn_sri@rediffmail.com the indenter on Wed, 21 Mar 2012 15:16:54 IST from mail id Anish Gupta<mangalam26@bsnl.in Subject: SUPPLIERS LIST in first mail he send list of 7 vendors for limited tender call for reactor procurement case and best part is that he highlighted the name of 5th supplier i.e. M/s De Dietrich, Andheri (E) Mumbai-400072, in second mail dated Wed, 28 Mar 2012 14:24:33 IST  Subject: AADITIONAL SUPPLIERS LIST with same mail id sent list and address of 4 more suppliers. Out of 11 names Sh J N Srivatava invited quotations from 8 firms provided by Mr.Anish Gupta, Partner, Ms Mangalam Traders. Surprisingly the name Ms Mangalam Traders was not in the list.

Sir, Mr. Anish Gupta, Partner, Ms Mangalam Traders acted honorary consultant for Project DRDM-552, it will be very nice if you recommend the name of Ms Mangalam Traders for 2014

“Defence Technology Absorption Award” and he will receive this award from Honorable Prime Minister Sh. Narendra Modi Ji likes M/s Resins & Allied Products, Vijayawada received this award from Honorable Prime Minister Sh. Man Mohan Singh. The firm is related to Dr. A. Subhananda Rao, then CC R&D, Director, HEMRL.

It also covers his point no. 3 that “I have never sent any mail to Mr Anish” he forgot that I have never claimed in my complaint that Dr. Saxena had sent any mail to Mr. Anish. It is the frustration of Dr. Saxena so he is writing blah blah.

In same para he wrote that “How he got access of my email account.” It is very strange that if he totally denies of such communication of mails then why is he worrying about the mail access?In

In Para 6 I think Dr A K Saxena never gone through the letter of Sh S K Deb regarding Delegation of Financial Powers to Secretary Department of Defence (R&D),Chief Controllers (R&D) & Heads of Defence R&D Lab Estt No. DRDOIDBFAIF A/83226/M/OI /2031 /D(R&D) dated 30 July 2010.in which it is mentioned the power of Heads of Defence R&D Lab is Upto Rs 10 lakhs – Without consultation of Finance and Above Rs.l 0 lakhs and upto Rs.5 crores – With Concurrence IFA, Dr A K Saxena forgot that he is writing to his DG, who knows the financial power of a Director of Lab. As Dr A K Saxena wrote “ it range from 1 lakh to 5 cr with or without concurrence of competent authority” for justifying the split of procurement – bogus justification.

In Para 7 of his letter he quoted that”On my visiting card my e mail is written so any one who is having it can use” Dear Dr. A K Saxena in the computer era the mail generated by any one or sending to any one can be traced easily. Please allow DRDO or NTRO or NIC experts to prove the mail which you have received from Mr. Anish Gupta and duly forwarded to Sh. J N Srivastave are fabricated. I think someone has told you that if you format your computer nobody can prove that you have received a mail from Mr. Anish Gupta. Dr. A K Saxena if Dr. Bhujang Rao believes in national interest or faith in Sh. Modi ji’s mission to eradicate corruption from India then it is a matter of minutes and Google Gmail will provide all data of your Gmail account to the government of India and it is a common practice that Google has already mentioned from time to time on the request from various country.

Sir, it clearly proves the corruption on his side.

Although, it was a proven fact that corruption was done in this case, and many other cases which I have already submitted to competent authorities, I want to offer you or your rep if they want see the documentary evidences on this procurement. I will always welcome DRDO representatives or any government agencies.

Rest what else he has written to his above refer letter has nothing to do with justification of corruption. It is only to misguided to accounts people by using word like it is the only one which we have designed and developed in the first time in the world and blah blah or as he quoted “It is developed reactor based on our requirement not a market item” Dr. Saxena forgot in the age of Internet Era his son can understand that his father is fooling the whole nation in the name of technology.

The website www.corruptionindrdo.com’s sole mission is to eradicate corruption, nepotism and favoritism in DRDO.

Again, I believe that you will understand that Dr. A K Saxena is involved neck deep in corruption, but I do not believe the input of the fact finding committee because on the basis of evidences a blind man can smell the corruption but specially such a honest Chairman Dr. S S Negi closed his eyes for his future to become Director of IRDE or DEAL.

Now you throw ball in the court Dr. D C Pande, Sc H, LRDE for final enquiry, but it is unconstitutional that you are giving spare time to Dr. A K Saxena for cleaning his mess.

Sir, the corruption stains are same as blood stains because this kind of corruption by senior DRDO officials is compromising our national security. If it will not be checked properly, then in a situation like KARGIL WAR, DRDO will again have to be ready to listen to statements like than General Malik’s just after KARGIL WAR in reference with DRDO’s role.

An early action requested to eradicate corruption and again I am ready to support with evidences or if you feel I am also ready to face Dr. Saxena’s desired inquiry against me. It is always welcome by me as I have dedicated my life to the nation.

Every fortnight launching a missile – hidden agenda of DRDO

Leave a comment

Sh. Narendra Modi ji, Honorable Prime Minister when asked about Indo-Pak relations he said “Talks get lost in the noise of bomb blasts.” It was a simple and effective way to convey the message to our neighbor.

Since 1999, when DRDO credentials were on stake due to the exposure of its strength in KARGIL WAR, the then Genral Malik openly criticized the role of DRDO.

DRDO planned to create a thunderous noise to divert the attention of the government and common people of India by simply launching missiles. After smelling the effect, it started missile launching roughly at the interval of fortnights with different variant of missiles like Prithvi, I, II, III, Akash, Agni I, II, III, IV, V, IV Nag, Trishul and ………….

All the developed nations have demonstrated the ability to analyze the failures and incorporated the corrective measures and are able to sell and generate revenue out of their research.

DRDO, however justifies the failures and with thunderous noise tries to divert the attention of government and common people of India who in turn pay crores and crores rupees for the development of missiles.

No practical data showed on photographs of missile launching or hitting the target has been shown to the nation. DRDO always released the launching flight scene but never demonstrated the kill probability. Why the matter of fact as per sources that last month Sh. Avinash Chandra witnessed the target hitting of a 100 KW laser Aditya which was suppose to hit moving targets. It was not able to hit static target, in fact it missed it by meters. The case of 20 KW Coil laser is also an example that without delivering the required output project main 16.58 Cr. equipment was mysteriously burned in fire accident but surprisingly DRDO announced that the project was successful and a successful completion letter from under secretary, MOD, Mr. Deb was put in project file to fool the government and common men of India who are paying the money for their misadventure. And the best part of this is that he project leader Dr. R K Tyagi got scientist of the year award from DRDO.

In 1991 Gulf war, Americans demonstrated the capability of Patriot missile’s hitting and intercepting the Scud missile and the scene was witnessed across the globe.

Can SA to RM demonstrate the same capability to our new Prime Minister Sh. Modi Ji? It will help him plan the defence preparedness to secure the boundary.

DRDO by far has a hidden agenda of launching a missile in every fortnight just to divert the attention of the government and common people of India from the rampant corruption of DRDO misappropriation of funds, misinterpretation of rules, the common practices noticed by the CGDA in special audit of DRDO.

Since the KARGIL WAR, incompetency has flourished in DRDO and has created a void as a result. Those who were supposed to retire from active service have managed during UPA government two to even three extensions with promotions ignoring Honorable Supreme Court and violating DoPT guidelines.

They are involved with 1000 crores of programs (of course without any end result) the commission/omission does not permit them to lose the extra income and perks and they are blessed by the competent authorities.

India has voted for a strong government in the centre and expecting new government will sense the weaker points and fix the accountability of DRDO. The government will look what was the compulsion of previous governments or in which circumstance they gave such unprecedented extension to such selected group of people like

Dr A S Pillai, CC&D, CEO, Brahmos touching 67 years CCR&D since 13th Sep. 1999.

Dr. SK Vasudeva, Ex Director, SPIC, DRDO after three successive extensions now working in contract

Sh Avinash Chander, SA to RM, DG, DRDO, Secretary, DRD presently in second extension and after November 2014 on contractual appointment.

5 Top DRDO senior officials are in second extension

Few directors of Labs are on second extension

And 60 to 62 years extension countless in DRDO

Extension business has created a vacuum in DRDO Hqrs. and if it continues probably there won’t be manpower available from active service to head the Lab and shoulder the responsibility of DRDO’s plan of action. “Here at present nobody is responsible for any outcome”

RTI-DRDO-Rs 288.00 Lakhs Scam – CR Rao Advanced Institute of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science,(AIMSCS) Hyderabad

Leave a comment
To                                                                                                                                  29th May 2014 
Dr. RB Sharma, CPIO,
DRDO HQ, Min. of Defence,
DRDO Bhawan, Rajaji Marg,
New Delhi-110011 

Hello,
Kindly provide me with the following information requested under the purview of the Right to Information (RTI) Act, 2005 in respect of sanction a project of Rs 288.oo Lakhs to Prof V R Reddy, CR Rao Advanced Institute of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science,(AIMSCS) Hyderabad (a Society) for Project titled NIMO Radar- Spatial Diversity, Spatial Resolution and Transmitter Waveform in Target Detection, Resolution and Identification. The projection sanction by Dr V K Saraswat, Ex-DG, DRDO

  1. Total money released to AIMSCS Society, Hyderabad by DRDO
  2. Present status of project it is delivered (Yes or No)
  3. If not than DRDO has initiated to recover funds from  AIMSCS Society, Hyderabad (Yes or No)
  4. Copy of financial expenditure details submitted by AIMSCS Society, Hyderabad

Note : Matter is directly related to corruption and not exempted under Section 24 (1), as  Dr V K Saraswat, Ex-DG, DRDO happened to be the president of AIMSCS Society governing body. Hence, without prejudice to the correctness of the decision relating to this Grant-in-Aid, it was against the canons of financial propriety for SA to RM to have sanctioned grants to a society headed by him. Release of advance payment to the society even for salary in respect of non-existent manpower blocks government funds and provides an opportunity to private society to earn interest income. DRDO was hired a consultant and the consultant is also planning to hire consultant. CGDA special audit also raised serious objection on this matter.

Policy bankruptcy in DRDO – hype to create artificial crisis

डीआरडीओ में नीति का दिवालियापन – कृत्रिम संकट पैदा करने के लिए प्रचार
To                                                                                                                                 28th May 2014
Sh. Narendra Modi,
Prime Minister,
Room No – 152, PMO,
South Block, NEW DELHI -110011

With 64 Crores annual budget in 1980, when Dr. V S Arunachalam took over as Scientific Adviser, the budget allocation enhanced to 1100 crores with missions made to develop missiles under IGMDP program.

That was the beginning of infrastructure development and deteriorating of scientific research and development. By March every year i.e. the closer of financial year, everyone from Scientist ’B’ to SA to RM office were looking for procurement cases only and those who met the expenditure by any means were rewarded with scientist of the year award.

However the conscious financial officers use to raise objections, so special provisions were made and duly approved by ministry. SA to RM was given special powers to procure under single quotation more than Rs. 10 lakh where procurement committee could be bypassed. This decision was taken to facilitate the speedy development of technology for missiles.

The incumbent after Kalam, further modified the single tender purchase and the SA office granted permission for procurement of one lakh rupees only.

The cases were raised left and right on single tender procurements, where hefty sums were returned to indenter as kickback. This procedure became a culture of DRDO and when in 2006 DRDO Purchase Manual was introduce and policy was framed, Directors powers were raised to 50 Lakhs rupees with Hqrs. rep in crores and SA’s power raised up to 50 crores.

When previous Defence Minister Sh. A K Antony noticed the foul smell, he ordered CGDA for special audit of DRDO. CGDA found that DRDO Directors including Scientific Adviser misused the funds by splitting procurement orders within their limit of sanction power. They fooled the country in all possible ways. A well known fact is that 70% of DRDO requirements come from foreign countries; it means that DRDO is wasting precious foreign currency which is hard earned by the country.

DRDO procured, in last 10 years, thousands of crores of rupees equipments and these equipments are lying idle in various Lab premises and waiting for their departure to the scrap house.

With the passage of time DRDO has become a dumping ground of obsolete technology and a way to needlessly waste the poor tax payers’ money without any end result.

Honorable Prime Minister is requested to overhaul the DRDO structure totally and take strong actions to implement Accountability.

With warm regards
