New Delhi – 110105

Congratulations, as reported in today’s Hindustan “Daily Hindi News Paper” Director, DMSRDE, Dr. A K Saxena claimed that they developed a chemical compound which can withstand 2000 °C & more. In fact the claim of the said compound has surpassed the limit of the compound used for heat shielding of space shuttle.

The Space Shuttle thermal protection system (TPS) is the barrier that protected the Space Shuttle Orbiter during the searing 1,650 °C (3,000 °F) heat of atmospheric reentry. A secondary goal was to protect from the heat and cold of space while on orbit.

So, this website request you to become member secretary of the committee headed by top Indian chemist Bharat Ratna Professor CNR Rao with members of Honorable Prime Minister and Honorable Defence Minister and recommend the innovation of Dr A K Saxena for Nobel Prize 2014 in Chemistry.

With Good Wishes

Subject: Effect of RTI Act 2005

Withdrawn of Tuglaki Farman/Talibani Fatwa by Tuglaki/Talibani Director Dr. Arvind Kumar Saxena, DMSRDE, Kanpur 

Sir,

       You will be surprised to know that under your regime in 21st Century in which India is going from developing to developed country with all efforts of honest and hardworking Indians. However there are some ineligible and corrupt officers managed to get the chair of Director. One of them in this category is Dr. Arvind Kumar Saxena, Director, DMSRDE, Kanpur. He is stigma on DRDO as he dragged the DMSRDE in condition which is un repairable. He is very poor administrator, manager & Scientist.

There are more than 15 parking shades in DMSRDE,Kanpur made of bricks & concrete roofs in all over DMSRDE as DMSRDE premises is spread over 45 Acres area. Everything was running as such but all of sudden Dr. Arvind Kumar Saxena, Director, DMSRDE gets impulse which changed his state of mind and he issued an Order dated AE/Gen Admin/13/0578 dated 26 September 2013 regarding Parking of Vehicles by Officers & Employees of DMSRDE. He issued order “All officers & employees of establishments are ordered to park their vehicles in parking area/shade near CSD Canteen Building“.

This create panic (hurry-skurry) among officers & employees as these two shades were insufficient to park all vehicles of DMSRDE. Handicapped officers & employees face too much difficulty by Tuglaki Farman of Dr. Saxena. In these two shades only 20 cars could be parked, while there are 60 cars, 200 two wheeler & 100 bicycles with officers & employees of DMSRDE.

This Talibani Order & Tuglaki Farman forces me to file an application under RTI Act 2005 dated 04 October 2013 to CPIO, DMSRDE, Kanpur. The immediate effect of this RTI took place on Dr. A.K. Saxena. He called Group/Division Head meeting on 07 October 2013 at 11:30 to 13:00 hrs.

Dr. A.K. Saxena told to officers present that an RTI has been filed on issue of Parking of vehicles in two newly constructed shades as ordered by order dated 01 October 2013. Thereby I have decided to withdraw my orders dated 01 October 2013 and now status quo will be maintained. All officers & employees can park their vehicles as such before issue of this order.

He also decided in meeting that he will dismantle these two shades as designs of these are not proper. Sir you can see how my RTI forces your Director to change decision with in one day. It means his order was illegal, improper and against welfare of official of DMSRDE. Similarly Dr. Saxena is issuing Tuglaki Farman daily and changing them very frequently.

Dr. A.K. Saxena having some vested interest in Gupta Construction, Gandhi Gram, Kanpur. It is matter of investigation to find out connection between Gupta Construction & Dr. A.K. Saxena. Please direct your vigilance director to explore the facts or wait for further expose of Dr. A.K. Saxena’s act and deeds. These two shades should be constructed either by MES or CCE (R&D) but due to vested interest Dr. Saxena issued orders to M/s Gupta Constructions to erect this shade by purchasing raw material to erect the shade by issuing supply order to M/s Gupta Constructions. This whole construction was illegal and smacks corruption in the matter. Thereby Dr. Saxena is feeing disconcertment due to expose of his corruption and illegal construction with in DMSRDE by misusing his powers.

Now Dr. A.K. Saxena decided in Group Head meeting that he will dismantle these shades, it establish & indicates Dr. Saxena wants to destroy the evidences & tempering with files & documents related to purchase of materials for these shades by Estate & Works Division, DMSRDE. I am submitting you the photographs of these two shades recently constructed illegally by Director, DMSRDE as for this work he was not authorize and empowered. Depute an enquiry team to DMSRDE, Kanpur for inspection of this illegal construction carried out by Dr. A.K. Saxena, Director, DMSRDE, Kanpur. So that his corrupt practices would be exposed and he should be penalized as per Rules.

Bye the way Dr. A.K. Saxena is not doing something strange, this practice is already exercised or exercising in various labs. Like Director, DEAL busy with replacing the good perfect tiles in all campus, RTI is there but no worries in face of Sh R C Agarwal. Same in CEPTAM when MES handover the building and very next day all tiles were removed and wood paneling started and all alteration were made without proper sanctions and literally wasted the poor tax payers money.

GOVERNMENT OF INDIA
MINISTRY OF DEFENCE
RAJYA SABHA
QUESTION NO 1286
ANSWERED ON 05.12.2012

Restricting financial powers of Chief of DRDO

1286 SHRI NAND KUMAR SAI

Will the Minister of DEFENCE be pleased to satate :-

(a) whether Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) enjoys a huge amount of autonomy because of it strategic nature of work;

(b) if so, the details in this regard;

(c) whether Government proposes to impose any restrictions on the financial powers of Chief of Defence Research and Development Organisation;

(d) if so, the details in this regard; and

(e) if not, the reasons therefor?

ANSWER

MINISTER OF DEFENCE
(SHRI A.K. ANTONY)

(a) Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) is a subordinate Organisation under the Department of Defence R&D in the Ministry of Defence and is governed by Central Government rules and regulations. Therefore, DRDO as an Organisation does not enjoy any special powers or autonomy because of its strategic nature of work.

(b) In view of the reply given at (a) above, Question does not arise.

(c) to (e): Financial powers of DG DRDO are being exercised by the Secretary, Defence R&D in the capacity of higher Competent Financial Authority (CFA) with the concurrence of Additional Financial Adviser (R&D) in the Ministry of Defence (Finance), pending final decision by the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) on implementation of Rama Rao Committee recommendations. Revised delegation of financial powers of DG DRDO was carried out in 2010 to address a long standing requirement and was done after due process and deliberation. The process of exercise of these powers has been further rationalized and, to this effect, a corrigendum has been issued by Department of Defence (R&D) on 21st November 2012 as a partial modification to the earlier financial powers as issued on 30th July 2010.

CAG pulls up DRDO for irregularities in new projects

Leave a comment

Agencies : New Delhi, Thu Nov 29 2012, 20:41 hrs The Indian Express

The CAG has pulled up the DRDO pointing out “deficiencies” and “procedural irregularities” committed by it in taking up new projects and splitting sanctions for them to bring it within financial powers of the organisation head.

“Scrutiny of project sanctions issued by DRDO revealed procedural irregularities relating to misleading nomenclature of sanction issuing authorities, absence of data base of sanctions and splitting of sanctions,” the CAG said in its report tabled in the Parliament today.

“The above audit findings underscore that the efforts of the Ministry of Defence to bring in transparency and objectivity in functioning of its departments remain unachieved as of now,” the report said.

The CAG noted that financial powers of Director General, DRDO and Secretary, Defence Research and Development were enhanced to the range of Rs 25 crore to 50 crore and Rs 60 crore to 75 crore respectively and both these offices are held by one person only.

“Audit of sanctions revealed non-adherence with established norms and procedures for issue, circulation and recording of sanctions authorising expenditure out of public funds for various purposes,” the report said.

On the splitting of sanctions, the Government auditor said, “We observed that after the enhanced delegation of financial powers in July 2010, sanctions were spilt up to bring them within the delegated financial powers of the DG R and D (DRDO Chief) that is up to Rs 50 crore in consultation with the Integrated Financial Advisor.

” “DRDO splitting such sanctions is tantamount to selecting financial advisor which clearly erodes the integrity and independence of financial scrutiny of expenditure proposals,” the report said.

The CAG noted that in some cases, the cost of DRDO projects was brought down below Rs 50 crore by reducing the number of deliverables and curtailing its scope enabling the DG, DRDO to issue the sanction within his delegated powers.

“Clearly projects were being split up to keep the sanction below Rs 50 crore,” it said.

The report said, “instead of obtaining the revised sanction for existing projects by approaching the competent financial authority at the next higher level, fresh projects were sanctioned.”

The project cases cited by the CAG included the Project Akashdeep of DRDO for developing indigenous Aerostat radars and Project ADITYA for the vehicles mounted high power laser directed energy weapons.

The report said the enhancement of delegated financial powers has resulted in concentration of financial powers with the DRDO headquarters which has a “tendency to split projects to avoid reference to higher CFAs.

” The CAG also noted that the DRDO “did not maintain a control register of sanctions issued and there excited no mechanism to track the number and total amount of sanctions issued for projects.”

“In absence of minimum control records, the possibility of sanctions being issued in excess of funds, splitting of sanctions, issue of multiple projects for the same objective could neither be ruled out nor noticed in normal course,” the report observed.

In the recent past, an internal audit report of the Defence Ministry had made similar observations there which were refuted by the DRDO saying they were only preliminary in nature.
