Subject: CEPTAM is another den of corruption and nepotism in DRDO
Sir,
The History of CEPTAM is everyone know but now the time of Internet Era the corruption and nepotism is not possible buried in the dump of files. Great Dr AK Singh did lot of misadventure while he was Director,CEPTAM the cases started coming out one by one like Ms Mishra case, more than half dozen recruitment of single village, driver Sh. Sunderpal case is on, Sh Rajesh Goyal did lot of corruption in purchasing with his favorite firm and the compulsory SMS of CEPTAM-06 the clear example but as history of saving corrupt official in DRDO is still in top.
It is not necessary to send you examples because you have already lot of complaints were pending in different stages.
Please find enclosed article of Yathawat magazine for perusal, it is up to whether take action or just pass gave blessing to DRDO officials that not repeat next time like as earlier MoD treat the Sh Rajesh Goyal, Ex Dircetor, CEPTAM-06 SMS case which submitted with all documentary evidences. Dr. Sudhir Gupta, director, CEPTAM is another great feather of DRDO, and showed his best scientific caliber in CEPTAM- 07, if you investigate his complete service book than it will reveal his manipulations in government funds and allowances like LTC etc while serving in AGRA Lab.
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
Reply by CVO, MOD regarding CEPTAM -06 DRDO Recruitment Scam
To Date 10th December 2013The CPIO Centre for Personnel Talent Management (CEPTAM)DRDO, Ministry of Defence, Metcalfe HouseDelhi-110 054
Hello,
Kindly provide me with the following information requested under the purview of the Right to Information Act, 2005 in respect of CEPTAM-06.
Copy of all supply orders in respect CEPTAM-06 recruitment drive, like SMS registration, Data entry and other orders.
Total amount of all orders given to M/s MILLENNIUM SYSTEMS, Delhi after taking charge by Shri Rajesh Goyal, DIRECTOR, CEPTAM since 01 April 2012
Note: above required information is directly related to corruption and not come under schedule –II. As you aware that my complaint regarding CEPTAM-06 recruitment drive already registered with CVC vide complaint number 30714/2013/Vigilance 9.
Shri Avinash Chandra Ji, after you joined as DRDO boss, honest and neutral official expected and hoped for good decision, good administration, good cohesive environment, hope you will shake DRDO with your full strength to get rid of incompetent stuff.
But sorry to say you disappointed the honest scientists/ staff/ officials and they are not finding any reason to stay or giving their 100% output to DRDO.
Avinash ji, collect all your good energy and get rid of the nexus of culprits who are controlling SPIC, CCE, Department of Personnel, RTI Cell, RAC, CEPTAM and some Lab heads.
Every DRDO official knows acts and deeds of these corrupt officials but sake of their carrier not coming forward but sending anonymous or fake signed letters ( inputs are correct) to Prime Minister, Defence Minister and other government agencies and of course to you also, I have also received some from various labs. (Sending bunch to Honorable Defence Minister)
The increasing numbers of court cases are also perfect examples of mismanagement in DRDO.
The decision of giving responsibility of administration/material management to scientists is also going to be a big problem in the coming time.
Perfect administration and perfect procurement is not cup of scientists. They are not able to match with laid down rules of government of India. Day by day increasing number of anomalies / audit objections in recruitments / procurement are going to be a big issues.
Dr. P S Goel’s DO letter implementing of interaction for promotion from Sc ‘ F’ to Sc ‘G’ without approval from cabinet is a clear cut case of violation of Article 309 and the repercussion now started in shape of court cases which was hampering the progress of DRDO and created demotivation among senior scientists
Same in RAC/ CEPTAM encouraging recruitment of incompetent / fake degree / diploma appointment of such candidates who are not eligible as per SRO/ appointment on the basis of nepotism/ in this respect you only see the RTI’s on these issues, you will find clear picture of the future of DRDO.
You are under the impression that corrupt CPIO, Dr A K Tyagi is protecting DRDO. It is not true, instead of exposing the corrupt practices, he is trying to bury the information and very soon these corrupt practices will sink the DRDO ship. As you aware CVC already issued advice to CVO, MoD against the Dr A K Tyagi for “Regular Disciplinary action is recommended on: 9/9/2013“and you are not taking any action to remove him for the post of CPIO, DRDO. What does it mean, it means still you are in grip of corrupt officials. A honest advice is first change your staff officer and old staff of Dr Sarswat’s time, than only you will be find some change in DRDO’s scenario.
Avinash ji, we all very well know that you are washing dirty linen of Dr V K Sarswat’s several misdeed which are the outcome of mismanagement of Dr Sarswat, because he was only on? Government agencies very well know about that, and why he was not able to get extension, Ms R. AMRUTHA VANI, SC ‘F’’s (‘Below the Bench Mark’) case, Dr Neelam Bhalla’s, Sc ‘F’ (Workplace Humiliation, Harassment, Gender discrimination & Victimisation) case etc. but problem is that you are dealing all issues with same set of officials ( Dr Sarswat’s & Dr. W Selvamurthy’s gang) who created and responsible for these kinds of hurdles in DRDO for their own wasted interest.
CEPTAM Director enjoys all type of corrupt practices like he is engaging his wife and relatives in different recruitments boards as experts. Recent CEPTAM recruitment process he introduced mandatory SMS registration (cost Rs 3 to each applicant) for his personal benefit (he worked this out this without proper procedure) and due to this almost thousands of aspirant were not able to get their admit cards. In this process lot of SC/ST candidates also suffered, you can check with records, where Government of India facilitates to SC/ST candidates in recruitments without any fee. Almost 5 lakhs candidates applied nearly one lakh rejected and thousands of candidate could not appear due remote centre problem, candidates were not given asked choice centers, they received admit cards with centers like Goa, Mizoram, Chennai, Patna.
Please go through the following letters which are self explanatory of your labs environment and administrative ability of your scientist.
Example Responsibility of Administration to Scientist – DMSRDE ION Dated 31st December 2012 a true example of DRDO helpless position – a perfect documentary evidence of how incompetency promoting in DRDO.
