Subject: DRDO recruit 500 scientists this financial year 2014

The news was published in Times of India “DRDO to recruit 500 more scientists this year” – Vishwas Kothari, TNN Jan 8, 2014,

Directorate of HRD, DRDO vide their letter no DHRD/77001/C/M/010 dated 22 August 2012 conveyed to all Lab Directors/Establishment that the Government for Sanction of additional scientist posts to meet only the immediate and unavoidable critical requirements against the ongoing projects/progarammes as per the advice of Ministry of Finance.

The Lab Directors are therefore to submit scientists’ requirement as per enclosed   “Appendix ‘A’ “

How the government has been fooled and the poor tax payers money is being misused can be observed by “Appendix ‘A’ “, deployment of scientists (DRDS personals)

The Performa “Appendix ‘A’ stats the scientists requirement as under:-

  1. PROJECT/PROGRAMME WISE
  2. NON-PROJECT WISE (TECHNICAL JOBS)
  3. ESTABLISHMENT ACTIVITIES

Two third of scientists are needed for

 dhrd table1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All these above activity is earlier in DRDO doing by admin allied cadres which were duly approved and sanctioned by Government of India, and come through UPSC recruitment system, but unfortunately in the last week of December 2010 DRDO director’s conclave some directors raised voice against the admin allied officials quoting that  they are creating hurdles by pin pointing the Government orders. The DRDO directors want to run their own rules and they very much sure that the big boundary walls of their territory can stop their all illegal acts in the name of secrecy.  So it was decided in year 2010 itself that they will remove admin allied cadre phase wise.

If you examine the current scenario of each DRDO lab will find everywhere 30 – 40 % scientists are engaged in above mentioned assignment.

The best part of this these scientists who are engaged in admin allied task are enjoying all special perks and allowances which are given specially to scientists in VI pay commissions and also  getting fast promotions in respect of those scientists who are devotedly working in projects/ programs. It is because of their proximity with top management of DRDO.

Due to this incompetency is growing very fast in DRDO. This has resulted into large number of litigation due to incompetent scientists handling the administration and HR activities.

The current ongoing example the grade pay 4800 was inducted without taking proper sanction from Min of Finance and hundreds of effected employees filed case in CAT.

There lot of complaints registered by CVC/CVO MoD in respect of recruitment procedures  were manipulated several times by these incompetent scientists who were looking HRD/Administrations and resulted Sh A K Anthony, Defence Minister recommended a CBI inquiry against 10 top DRDO officials on 29th October 2013.

Major setback is that by implementing this practice of using scientist for sundry task the real scientist losing their interest in work and most of the time either leave the organization or sit idle.

So all these fabricated demand of DRDO may please be thoroughly examined with their time bound impact.

Finance Ministry requested to send their rep to meet admin/ allied officials of DRDO before sanctioning the post of scientist.

Finance Ministry must examine the DO part orders of all respective 52 Labs of DRDO, which will be best way to verification of utilization of scientific / technical manpower of DRDO.

DRDO to recruit 500 more scientists this year

Vishwas Kothari, TNN, Jan 8, 2014, 03.24AM IST

PUNE: The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) plans to recruit 500 additional scientists this year to meet its workforce requirement across different levels and projects.

“Our present recruitment is focused on filling vacancies that arise from retirements and resignations. However, considering the kind of projects we have been working on, we have moved a proposal with the Union government for an additional recruitment of 500 scientists,” DRDO’s human resources (HR) chief Malakondaiah said on Tuesday. “The government had asked us to file the proposal projecting our need,” he added.

The collective cost of DRDO’s ongoing projects, including Aakash missile, light combat aircraft ‘Tejas’ and Brahmos missile, is worth Rs 1.6 lakh crore. The organisation has close to 7,500 scientists as part of its existing force, he said.

Malakondaiah, who is chief controller of research and development (HR), was in the city to address the valedictory function of the 71-member ‘batch-18’ of the Post Induction Training School (POINTS) at the Defence Institute of Advanced Technology (DIAT), a deemed university under the DRDO in Girinagar here.

Started in March 2003, POINTS is an initiative to impart integrated training to newly inducted scientists in the beginning of their career in DRDO laboratories and projects. So far, the school has trained 3,394 scientists from 17 batches and the 18th batch was the first of its kind, comprising graduates and postgraduates only from the Indian Institutes of Technology, Indian Institute of Science and DIAT.

Malakondaiah said, “Unlike conventional industries like information technology, DRDO is facing an almost negligible rate of attrition vis-a-vis resignations, which contributes barely one per cent of the arising vacancies. This is due to the fact that the Sixth Pay Commission has vastly reduced the gap in the pay scales offered by DRDO and private corporate bodies. This has also helped the organisation to attract and retain young scientific talent emerging from the IITs and IISc.” The additional recruitments will go a long way in resolving some of the issues related to the shortfall of workforce in projects across DRDO, he added.

Meanwhile, POINTS programme director Ajay Misra gave an overview about the training activities at the valedictory session, while DIAT vice-chancellor Prahlada addressed the young scientists. Deputy director D Srikanth was also present.

SUBJECT: SCAM AND ASTRONOMICAL CORRUPTION IN PROCUREMENT OF DYNEEMA FABRIC IN DMSRDE KANPUR 

COMPLAINT AGAINST

  1. MR. AMIT SARAIYA, SCIENTIST ‘D’, HEAD MATERIALS MANAGEMENT GROUP (2011-2012),
  2. MR. SHIELANDRA KUMAR  SCIENTIST ‘E’, HEAD MATERIALS MANAGEMENT GROUP (2013),
  3. DR. R. K. TIWARI, SCIENTIST, ‘F’, HEAD LIGHT ENGINEERING DIVISION (LED)
  4. DR. D. N. TRIPHATI, ‘F’, HEAD RUBBER AND ADHESIVE DIVISION
  5. MR. AK, SCIENTIST ‘D’ COMPOSITE MATERIAL DIVISION
  6. MR. ARUN KUMAR SINGH, SCIENTIST ‘D’ COMPOSITE MATERIAL DIVISION & TECHNICAL STAFF OFFICER TO DIRECTOR
  7. DR. DARSHAN LAL, CHAIRMAN, ‘STORES PURCHASE COMMITTEE’(SPC)
  8. DR. DARSHAN LAL, CHAIRMAN

Sir,

BRIEF FACTS OF THE COMPLAINT

  1. Defence Materials & Stores Research & Development Establishment (DMSRDE), Kanpur is an establishment under Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO), Min. of Defence, DRDO Bhawan, New Delhi.
  2. Purchase Management 2006 is applicable for procurement of store items in DRDO. Gross irregularities and violation of Purchase Management 2006 was made in procurement of Dyneema Fabric in year 2011-2013 when the cases were indented by officers of Composite Materials Divisions  under illegal orders of Head, LED & Composite Division, Head MMG & Dr. A. K. Saxena, Director, DMSRDE.
  3. Dr. A K Saxena Director is an incompetent, arrogant and corrupt administrator who has violated all the rules and regulations of purchase.  In earlier complaints pending with Central Vigilance Commissioner at New Delhi and now in the present case, it becomes amply clear that he is the ‘CENTRE OF GRAVITY’ of corruption menace in DMSRDE.  Para 5.1.1 of DRDO PURCHASE MANUAL 2006 clearly states that  following cautions shall be observed for purchasing stores:
  • Bulk purchases will normally fetch quantity discount. This should, however, not lead to over-stocking resulting in expiry of shelf life or redundancy due to obsolescence.
  • Purchase orders will not be split-up to avoid the necessity for obtaining sanction of the higher authorities.
  • Open tendering should be adopted to ensure fair competition, unless it is considered expedient to follow other modes of tendering due to urgency. Purchases will be made from the lowest acceptable tenderer. Adequate care would be exercised to ensure that delivery from the vendor is within the specified time schedule.
  1. Mr. R. K Tiwari,  Head Composite Division and also Head Light Engineering Division, Dr. D N. Triphati, Head Rubber and Adhesive Division, Mr. Amit Sariaya, Head MMG (2011-2012), Mr. Shielendra Kumar Accordingly Head MMG (2013), Mr. AK, Scientist ‘D’ and Mr. Arun Kumar Singh, Scientist ‘D’ possibly under heavy pressure entered into a criminal conspiracy with Dr. A K Saxena, Director  & CFA of splitting demands of the same items, details of which are mentioned below:
  2. PROCUREMENT IRREGULARITIES OF DYNEEMA

Dyneema worth total estimated cost of Rs. 1.05 Crore was procured on limited tender basis by splitting requirement

  • 11 demands below Rs.10 lakh (to avoid TPC) were raised during 16 months period (from May 2011 to Sep 2012) which were cleared by the SPC (Store Procurement Committee) dealing cases below Rs. 10.0 lakh, headed by  Dr.  Ashok Ranjan, Joint Director and Mr. Darshan Lal, Joint Director,  as Chairman of SPC 2011 and SPC 2012, Respective   supply orders placed during Aug 2011 to  Aug 2012.
  • One demand raised by Mr. A. S. Parihar and Dr. D.N. Tripathi, Joint Director in Apr 2013 for which supply order is placed on Manglam Traders in July 2013 worth Rs 7.06 Lakh. One demand raised by Mr. Arun Kumar Singh and Dr R. K. Tiwari, Joint Director, in Feb 2013 for which supply order is  placed on SMPP Pvt. Ltd. in Nov 2013 worth Rs 25.8 Lakh.
  • Point to be noted that there is no requirement for this store in such a huge quantity as there is no running project work on Bullet Proof Jacket with DMSRDE.
  • Details are as show in table-1

Table-1ak10

  • Points to be noted that
    • The requirement split into demands below Rs. 10.0 Lakh to avoid TPC and open tender which would have fetched better quality at discounted prices.
    • Further 02 Supply Orders worth Rs 13.5 Lakhs were placed on a pet vendor Mangalam Traders, Kanpur. 02 Supply Orders worth Rs 12.5 Lakhs were placed on a pet vendor Shahi Traders, Kanpur 01 Supply Orders worth Rs 7 Lakhs were placed on a pet vendor Pee Cee Textile Stores Kanpur.
    •  06 supply orders worth Rs 58.5 Lakhs were placed on a pet vendor S M Pulp Packaging Pvt Ltd, a  manufacturer of molded pulp products, protective packaging, presentation packaging and Industrial packaging which turned to an Armour manufacturer over a period of two years  by adding  the armor division through buildup of technical knowhow in the strategic field while working with scientists of DMSRDE Kanpur on development of Bulletproof Jacket.(pls refer website http://smgroupindia.com/pulp-molded-packaging.htm).  SMPP Pvt Ltd was not registered vendor at DMSRDE from 01.01.2011 to July 2013, when the vendor supplied the Dyneema in DMSRDE.. It is interesting to see that BPJ developed by DMSRDE Kanpur is still waiting for a customer where as S M Pulp Packaging Pvt Ltd are established supplier for the same as they claim in the website that there BPJ is certified by HP White USA and TBRL Chandigarh a nodal agency of DRDO for ballistic testing.
    • Further 02 Supply Orders worth Rs 13.5 Lakhs were placed on a pet vendor Mangalam Traders, Kanpur. 02 Supply Orders worth Rs 12.5 Lakhs were placed on a pet vendor Shahi Traders, Kanpur 01 Supply Orders worth Rs 7 Lakhs were placed on a pet vendor Pee Cee Textile Stores Kanpur
    • Placement of these orders on limited tender to non-registered, known/ local vendors clearly exhibit vested interest through manipulation  in prices, quality etc so as to fetch financial benefits hence indicates financial corruption/ corrupt practices of giving business/ benefits to own firms
  • Further interesting statistics out of above is as under
    • 04 demands worth Rs. 25.5 Lakhs were raised on 15th Sep 2011 by Mr. Amit Kumar, posted in Composite Material Division, and Dr. R. K. Tiwari, Joint Director, through Light Engineering Division (LED) with a deliberate attempt to bypass Group Director of Composite Material Division, an honest person Dr. D. K. Setua for the reason that splitting of demand is not permissible as per the guide lines of DRDO’s Purchase Manual 2006.It is important to note that Mr. AK, Scientist ‘D’ is not a part of Light Engineering Division (LED). He is posted in Composite Material Division. How he can indent the cases of LED?
    • Further these demands were cleared in SPC meeting held on 28th Sep 2011 and their tender enquiry was issued on same date 03rd Oct 2011 and very magically all   the 04 No. Supply orders worth Rs. 28.5 Lakhs were fetched by the same firm M/s SMPP Pvt. Ltd. on same date  11th Nov 2011.
    • Placement of these orders on limited tender to M/s SMPP Pvt. Ltd.  clearly exhibit vested interest through manipulation in prices, quality, quantity etc so as to fetch financial benefits hence indicates financial corruption/ corrupt practices of giving business/ benefits to own firms. SMPP Pvt Ltd was not registered vendor of DMSRDE during 2011-2013.
  • In a nutshell point is that out of  Rs 1.05 crore only 02 supply order worth Rs. 16 lakhs were placed on OEM M/s DSM Dyneema BV.  Dyneema is a proprietary item of OEM M/s DSM Dyneema BV and procurement from OEM might have saved around 35% of the cost paid in form of custom duty, local dealer profit and other overheads which comes to Rs 25 to 30 lakhs of loss of poor tax payer’s money.

6.  From the facts stated above, it is amply crystal clear that prima facie material regarding Abuse of Authority by arrogant and corrupt administrator Dr. A. K. Saxena, Director DMSRDE exists.

  • That he has created a robust cobweb of corruption system and that he entered into criminal conspiracy with Chairman’s of two successive SPC committee, Head Composite Division, Head Light Engineering, Head Finance Division  with an intention to cheat DRDO and exchequer’s money.
  • In pursuance of the said criminal conspiracy,  Dr. A K Saxena, Director, present Head MMG,  and Mr. A K Singh, Technical Staff Officer of Director DMSRDE are tampering with evidence / documents that shall be prejudice to fair trial, investigation, trial or any inquiry.

7.    In view of the above mentioned facts and evidences it is earnestly requested that an order for through investigation of all procurement done by Dr. Arvind Kumar  Saxena after assuming charge as Director, DMSRDE, DRDO, Kanpur to stop further corruption and wastage of poor tax payers money.

British Legacy and DRDO

10 Comments

British / Company Raj ruled this country for nearly 200 years and as result few Indian still does not believe that we are independent.

DRDO being the premier government organization, how come dishonored the standing instruction of honorable Supreme Court and the announcement made by honorable President.

The Supreme Court 10th December 2013 ruled that red beacon lights on vehicles can only be used by people listed as “high dignitaries”, that too only when they are on duty. Stating that the red beacons and multi-toned horns are reflective of “Raj mentality” and “an antithesis of the concept of a republic”

Recently Dr V K Saraswat, Ex D G, DRDO visited Gwalior   to attend a social function on 15th & 16th December 2013.

The Director, DRDE, DRDO Prof. (Dr.) M.P. Kaushik Sc.`H’ provided his Ex- Boss a Siren / Red light fitted car, A Pilot Vehicle and an Innova Car escort. May be Prof. (Dr.) M.P. Kaushik Sc.`H’ not aware of 10th December 2013 Supreme Court’s direction or ?

Dr W.Selvamurthy, Ex CC R&D, DRDO and very big scientist as quoted by Dr Ashok K Chauhan, Founder President, Amity Group and Life Sciences big boss of DRDO never preferred Prof. (Dr.) M.P. Kaushik Sc.`H’ as Director, DRDE and offered him to join as Rajbhasha Director in DRDO Hqrs. However, Dr V K Saraswat observed Prof. (Dr.) M.P. Kaushik ability of follow of British Raj legacy and Prof. (Dr.) M.P. Kaushik also honored Dr V K Saraswat’s belif on him.

Prof. (Dr.) M.P. Kaushik Sc.`H’ has  demonstrated his scientific ability through enclosed paper.

How can person involved in scientific fraud can able to run a scientific organisation with scientific ethics, what will be the quality of products out of such fraudulent research work.

Following are the links of his paper in which he has copied a major part from a foreign author, In one paper he has copied results of previous paper n shown as new compound, and surprisingly he is going to give one of the co-author of the paper as laboratory scientist of the year award for 2013.

Defence Minister AK Antony has recommended a CBI probe into an alleged recruitment scam in DRDO where several senior officers including two of its former chiefs are under the scanner.
The Defence Minister has recommended a CBI probe into the alleged recruitment scam in which two former DRDO chiefs and a former Chief Controller of the organisation are under scanner for allegedly giving jobs to their kins in alleged violation of rules and regulations, sources said on Sunday.
The vigilance wing of the Defence Ministry had been investigating the alleged wrongdoings in recruitment in the premier defence research agency for over a year.

Recently, a Director-rank officer of the DRDO was under scanner for his alleged role in an appointment made against the laid down procedures and was suspended hours before his retirement from service in May.
The official, a senior scientist, was suspended by the department as an inquiry was pending against him in a recruitment-related case where he allegedly recruited his own daughter in the organisation.
The matter had come to light after the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) recommended action against two DRDO officials for their alleged role in the case.
The official suspended was involved in promotion and selection of scientists in the organisation.
The CVC had also recommended review of the appointment of the scientist’s daughter who is now working in DRDO as a ‘Scientist C’.
