PMO

‘No sign’ of Army cheque donated to PMO

Leave a comment

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT – NEW DELHI, May 15, 2015- The Hindu
Months after Chief of Army Staff General Dalbir Singh presented a cheque of over Rs.100 crore to the Prime Minister’s Relief Fund, the Army says it has no information of any such donation.

On January 15 this year, Gen. Singh presented Prime Minister Narendra Modi the cheque “raised by officers and soldiers of the Army donating a day’s salary each” on the 67th Army Day. The photo of Gen. Singh presenting the cheque is on the website of the Press Information Bureau, as is an accompanying press release.

After reading media reports about several Army men expressing unhappiness about the Gen. Singh’s decision to hand over the cheque without first taking their consent for the deduction, Dehradun-based activist Prabhu Dandriyal filed an RTI petition with the Army on March 20.

Mr. Dandriyal told The Hindu that he sought information on the whether the cheque has been deposited in the fund, details of the bank, the account head of the Army from where the money had been debited, and if the cheque was not deposited, then whether it had been returned to the Army.

On May 12, a response from Lt. Col. Rajiv Guleria, the Public Information Officer said: “…no amount on account of contributions from salary of any Army personnel has yet been donated to the Prime Minister Relief Fund. The matter is under consideration.”

Mr. Dandriyal has now sent an RTI query to the PMO. An Army spokesperson refused to comment on Thursday.

Parliament Question No 789 Regarding DRDO Projects

Leave a comment

Dear friends please go through the parliament question 789 asked by Hon  Shri  Nishikant Dubey and others regarding DRDO projects. Our Hon Defence Minister Shri Manohar Parrikar answered the question as a same way like Ex defence Minister Sh A K Anthony because both only read the paper supplied by Dr. J.P. Singh, Scientist ‘G’ Director of Parliamentary Affairs. As a matter of fact Dr. J.P. Sigh is highly qualified scientist of DRDO with M.Sc. (Physics), MLISC and Ph.D. but since several years he is posted at DRDO HQ and looking after Parliamentary Affairs in DRDO. Dr. J.P. Singh was promoted as Scientist ‘G’ wef 01 July 2012 and having seniority no. 346 among all Scientist ‘G’ of DRDO as seniority roll as on November 2013,  still by superseding all his seniors he was appointed as Director, Dte of Parliamentary Affairs , DRDO HQ with blessings of his God Father.

You all be happy to see the answer same old story repeating since last 15 years friends we have great hope from Shri Manohar Parrikar because he is IIT’ans but without investigating the answer supplied by Dr. J.P. Sigh he state read same way like Sh A K Anthony.

It is requested that to our Defence Minister please see the answers earlier given by Sh A K Anthony on same matter. Also request don’t believe the reply given by Dr. J.P. Sigh some time he also not know the real facts, he only does galvanizing the inputs. We want to see the difference between technical qualified politician with other one. It will the great loss for our country if DRDO incompetent scientists are able to bluff the technical sound person like Parrikar ji.

DRDO lab Directors expert in manipulations whether it is Software Radio or Atrocities on SC/ST

Leave a comment

An official of DEAL, DRDO Sh. Jagdish Kumar, Technical Officer ‘C’ reported to SSP, Dehradun against the crime committed by Sh. R K Agarwal, Scientist ‘H’ Principal Associate Director, (Farzi Designation because as per RTI information there is no such gazette notification), DEAL.

Thanks to RTI Act 2005 which is strong and effective weapon against corrupt officials.

RTI revealed that Sh R C Agarwal fully supported and extended all his official powers to protect his Agarwal bandhu Sh. R K Agarwal, Sc ‘H’

  1. SSP, Dehradun same day i.e. 4/6/2014 sent Sh. Jagdish Kumar, Technical Officer ‘C’ to Thana Raipur for inquiry.
  2. SHO, Raipur Thana assigned the task to Sub Inspector B P Singh on same day i.e. 4/6/2014
  3. Sub Inspector B P Singh did not look into the matter seriously. After many requests he visited DEAL, DRDO campus on 3/7/2014 and met Sh. R K Agarwal in his office, in the company of Sh K Sivakumar, Sc ‘G’, Dr R S Pundir,  Sc ’G’, Sh Dilip Kumar, Sc ’F’, Sh Atul Dev, Sc ‘F’, Sh VVS Panwar, TO ‘C’, working as Security officer, Sh Balwant, Senior Security Assistant.
  4. Sub Inspector B P Singh submitted his investigation report with conclusion that matter is not worthy of further inquiry and is not fit for registration of FIR.
  5. As per RTI reply it clearly shows Sub Inspector B P Singh sent his final report on 3/7/2014.

Actual facts

  1. Sub Inspector B P Singh visited DEAL on 7/7/2014 and met Sh. R K Agarwal in the chamber of Sh RC Agarwal and collected few useless, unrelated paper, un-certified papers which he annexed with his final report, he forgot the date of final report i.e. 3/7/2014.
  2.  Sub Inspector B P Singh called Sh Jagdish Kumar, applicant on 8/7/2014 at 12.00 hrs and wrote down his statement; again he forgot the date of final report i.e. 3/7/2014.
  3. Per Sub Inspector B P Singh’s report he has not asked any question to Sh R K Agrawal about the allegation made by sh Jagdish Kumar with certified proof of Sh R K Agrawal’s act and deeds, the person who was harassed  by Sh R K Agrawal
  4. Sh RC Agarwal managed the show by offering tea to Sub Inspector B P Singh or like as he already authenticated Sh R K Agarwal false claim of showing association in prestigious project ‘NARAD’ for his promotion to Sc H and because of Sh RC Agarwal illegal act of nepotism so many senior deserving scientist not get their due credits,
  5. Sub Inspector B P Singh’s report is false and produced under pressure of Sh RC Agarwal & Sh R K Agarwal but they forgot that truth cannot be hidden by any means.
  6. The CC TV footage and DEAL official’s are witness of Sub Inspector B P Singh’s visit on 7/7/2014, poor Sub Inspector B P Singh does not know the Sh RC Agarwal & Sh R K Agarwal’s capability of manipulation skills, they are fooling the country men for 100 crores project, Sub Inspector is mere insect for these duo.rep to SSP 25 aug 2014 rep to SSP 25 aug 20141 rep to SSP 25 aug 20142rti reply by policerti reply by police1rti reply by police1.1rti reply by police2rti reply by police3rti reply by police4rti reply by police5rti reply by police6rti reply by police7rti reply by police8rti reply by police9rti reply by police10rti reply by police11rti reply by police12rti reply by police13

Campus Recruitment by PS Banks Now Unconstitutional – What About Illegality Already Committed ?

Leave a comment

campus selection letterby – Danendra Jain <dkjain49709@gmail.com>AllBankingSolutions.com

This refers to Mumbai High court judgement pronounced in a case related to Central Bank of India . The Bombay high court has held that its ( bank’s ) recruitment policy, which allows campus recruitment/interview method for appointment of officers against permanent vacancies on regular basis, was illegal and unconstitutional.

Bank management of almost all public sector banks has resorted to campus hiring, not only in scale I but in scale II and scale III too. During last ten years top ranked officers of almost all banks have functioned in an arbitrary manner, recruited persons of their choice, giving favours to kith and kins of high profile persons and denying the talented unemployed youth. Recruitment of persons for some personal gain or to give favour to sons and daughters of known dignitaries has damaged work culture in banks and adversely affected the asset quality of almost all banks.

Top management in public sector banks picked up persons from campus of their choice and in the name of merit they raped those who have been working in the bank for years and decades. Not only in recruitment have they harmed the future of those existing employees who were waiting for promotion to higher cadre and higher scale. There are instances where bank management recruited officer directly in scale III whereas hundreds and thousands of officers eligible for promotion to scale III are denied their rights.

Further due to their arbitrary and unjustified recruitment of officers from campus in scale III or scale II management of bank had to pay double salary or more for the same work which could be and which hitherto has been performed by junior officers and clerks.

Is there anyone who can punish such top ranked officers whose faulty action caused huge loss to the bank??

Why these responsible and top ranked officers should not be personally punished and taken to task so that in near future no one dares violating the rights of existing employees and denying the opportunity to really talented youths.

I am unable to understand why the courts have simply warned the bank to desist from campus hiring in future and why not court thought it necessary to impose penalty of erring top officials.

In response to court verdict against Central bank and its clear warning to bank not to repeat such campus hiring, Government of India should order CBI inquiry into all recruitment which took place during last ten years in public sector banks through campus hiring and whether those officers are really better than already working officers in banks and whether there was any corrupt dealing in such type of recruitment.
