PMO overlooking transfers

During UPA regime Ministers had a choice to bring their own people to ministry and even places like Railway Board money to change hands. Now PMO is overlooking all transfers and nothing like UPA regime is happening now.


D P Devgan IPS (Retd)

Can Modi government think out-of-the-box to listen to non-IAS officers? Is this Government afraid of real statistics? Then why is Statistics Ministry not in such a pitiable condition? DG CSO has no value, DG NSSO has no value, CSI & Secretary has no value, only an Additional Secretary belonging to IAS clan has all the commands. Even the Office of the DG NSSO has been taken over by an only Joint Secretary in the Ministry. The entire ISS community is a mute spectator to all this farce and drama. Please wake up if real economic development is what the BJP government wants.

Pay Commissions recommendations

I disagree with A Srivastava that Pay Commission's recommendations are without going into the practicality of the situations. On the contrary, Pay Commission is actually an expert body that studies the system of GoI in great details and after due deliberations/consultations give its recommendations. These recommendations are further scrutinized minutely item by item by Committee of Secretaries [wherein, Secretary Expenditure and DoPT Secretary etc. are also members] and then approved by Cabinet. Cabinet in India is supreme and anything approved by Cabinet is binding on all GoI Departments. Once a recommendation is approved by Cabinet it is not open for DoPT to study the practicality but to implement the Cabinet decisions. It is another matter that DoPT played with the system and high-ups also ignored DoPT's hypocrisy and tax-payers money is wasted by taking work of stenographer [UDC equivalent] from a PSO [director equivalent]. 6th Pay Commission had recommended PSOs' post as a temporary measure to give relief to stagnating officials until merger is effected. Now even take the case of practicality why 3-4 officials ranging from PS to PSO are required in a Secretary's office when there are only two telephones in his office? How many persons are required for dictation from one Secretary? How many persons are required for keeping engagements of one Secretary???
