CBEC most corrupt

CBEC is the most corrupt department right from the top. I have raised several complaints but none were addressed as most in the hierarchy are recipients as well.

Ashok Menon

Ways of CBEC and CBDT are strange

The ways of CBEC and CBDT are strange, they are islands catering for themselves. They do not follow Govt policy on litigation in case of personnel and service matters. The same is going to delay the implementation of the National Litigation Policy and earn the ire of the P.M. just the way CBEC has earned it two days back. In fact such hard skinned management of both the boards needed to be given the taste of Rule 56(J) for going against the Govt policy. That is why the personnel in these departments are having low esteem. The matter is fit to be taken up by service associations and the Joint Consultative Machinery as to why these two formations are excluded from the inclusion of personnel matters in the policy. The litigation in service matters is more due to the ego clash of the senior management, and a review of the same is going to bring it out in the open. Are these people afraid that their fiefdom will be put to danger?

Gaurang Sharma

Highlights or fall out of Department of Telecommunications

1. Operators failure to resolve call drop problems, roll out obligations and EMF public perception.
2. No accountability of BBNL for slipping out NOFN project more than three years.
3. Infrastructure Providers tower companies were allowed in allotment of Govt. buildings and lands without having any locus standi as not being the licensees.
4. Alleged ir-regular appointment of DG, Telecom Export Council being too senior to occupy the chair that is too without Govt. permission for taking commercial appointment during cooling period.
5. No turn around of BSNL and MTNL.
6. Flip part of the story is successful auction of spectrum & collecting more than 1 lakh crore to reduce fiscal deficit.
Work unitedly to make digital India programme successful.

Why no Padma award for Baba Ramdev ?

Talking of Padma Awards, incidentally, a never-heard-before Chinese Yoga expert gets Padma award for spreading yoga while our very own Baba Ramdev is not considered. Not withstanding a few controversies there is no denying the fact that Baba Ramdev has made a tremendous contribution to the popularisation of Yoga in the country. His Yoga Camps all over the country from North-East to Ladakh attract huge crowds and he did help in the victory of the ruling party in elections by telling his huge following to vote for them. Is it because his outspokenness on certain issues has annoyed the powers that be? Whatever be the reason he did deserve a Padma Shri atleast.
