Head of Lokpal search committee opts out of the job

New Delhi: In a major embarrassment for the government, the man heading the search for the nine members of the Lokpal or national anti-corruption ombudsman has quit his assignment.

In a letter to the Prime Minister's Office, Justice KT Thomas complains that the committee he chaired "cannot make any independent search to find out the most deserving persons" but has to restrict its review to a list of candidates submitted by the central government. (Read letter)

"I wonder why there should be a Search Committee at all," he adds, pointing out that the Search Committee's nominations can be vetoed by another Selection Committee headed by the Prime Minister. Justice Thomas retired from the Supreme Court in 2002.

Last week, noted jurist Fali Nariman refused the government's invite to be a part of the Search Committee. (Read)

The Lokpal is meant to include four former or serving judges. Famous legal experts have objected to the fact that judges have been asked to apply for the posts.

The law that creates the Lokpal was passed by Parliament in December. The need for an ombudsman empowered to investigate corrupt government officials was championed by activists Anna Hazare andArvind Kejriwal in 2012 in a high-profile movement which caught the imagination of middle class India.

But the Lokpal proposal was stalled in Parliament for several years, allowing Mr Kejriwal and his new Aam Aadmi Party or AAP to accuse major political parties of disinterest in checking graft.

AAP, which vowed to combat systemic corruption, was heavily favoured by voters in the state elections in Delhi in December and he took over as Chief Minister. But he resigned last month when he failed to push through the Delhi iteration of the Lokpal law in the state legislature.

AAP's electoral success forced other larger parties to ape its anti-graft agenda. The Congress has attributed the clearance of the Lokpal Bill by Parliament to the efforts of its young vice-president, Rahul Gandhi.

Current govt should shelve this process & let the new govt take over! Leave Mr Modi to take care of the selection process. Congressis can't even organize piss-up in a brewery.

Yet another scam of BJP

Chhattisgarh govt involved in Rs 5000 crore sanitation scam


Raipur: Chhattisgarh Congress on Sunday alleged that the state government has awarded Rs 5,029 crore contract for maintaining sanitation of Raipur city for 30 years to a Bangalore-based firm under the influence of a senior BJP leader without considering its drawbacks.

"The state government ignored the objections raised by the Raipur Mayor and Congress corporators before awarding the contract to Bangalore-based firm Kivar Environ Private Limited," former MLA and AICC national spokesman for Chhattisgarh affairs Md Akbar said in a press conference here today, alleging tender scam worth Rs 5,029 cr.

The contract was allotted at behest of a senior BJP leader of Karnataka, Akbar said.

He, however, declined to disclose name of the leader saying it would unnecessarily create controversy.

Suspecting role of Chief Minister Raman Singh in the matter, Akbar demanded CBI inquiry into entire tendering process.

"Kivar company is running with 48 per cent of foreign investment, and what is surprising is the fact that its director Subhash Menon with whom the contract agreement was made, had left the company on March 20, 2013," Akbar said.

The tender was done for the period of 30 years that is from September 2012 to September 2042, he said.

As per the agreement, the company has to lift all types of garbage from the city and then process and recycle the garbage to produce fertiliser for sale.

It was also allotted 66 acre land for disposal of garbage.

"But the company had been violating all contract norms," he alleged.

The payment has to be made to the company only after it completes all those processes, Akbar said, adding the company was being paid full amount only for lifting the garbage from the city and dumping it elsewhere.

BJP's new Scam in Madhya Pradesh

Multi-crore wheat scam in Madhya Pradesh


BHOPAL: Wheat procured at 60 procurement centres of Hoshangabad district during 2013-14 worth Rs 5.4 crore has gone missing! Fears are being expressed that the missing wheat is only a tip of the iceberg. A similar scam valued at Rs 6.8 crore in 2012-13 had come to light in Datia, lending credence to suspicion that absence of adequate monitoring system for co-operatives is giving scamsters a free run.

Payments for wheat procured in Hoshangabad have already been made from the account of co-operative societies, but the wheat purchased from farmers was not kept in godowns of Madhya Pradesh Civil Supplies Corporation.

Whistle-blower in Datia case, a local Congress leader, Narendra Yadav who sought information regarding procurement under the Right to Information Act said, "It is a scam of more than Rs200 crore in the state. Investigations should be conducted through a proper agency, because the same has been going on for years." When contacted, officials resorted to passing the buck.

Principal secretary, co-operatives, Ajit Kesri said, "It is basically Madhya Pradesh Civil Supplies Corporation which does payments and monitors procurement process and co-operatives are just agencies working for them."

Commissioner co-operatives Manish Shrivastav said, "Co-operatives are independent units and they function independently. We are just a regulatory agency. If there are any complaint, action is taken."

However, a senior official from Food and Civil Supplies Department and minister for food and civil supplies claimed that payment is done on the basis of the wheat deposited in godowns and not by how much they purchased.

Minister for food and civil supplies Kunwar Vijay Shah said, "I have heard about such anomalies, but since it is not my department I will apprise concerned minister of the issue on February 4. As far as civil supplies corporation is concerned, payment is done only against amount of which is deposited in accounts of the societies."

When contacted, co-operatives minister Gopal Bhargav said, "I will look into the matter particularly Hoshangabad and Datia. It is a serious issue and if any irregularities are found adequate action would be taken."

Explaining modus operandi of the accused officials, complainant and whistle-blower in Datia case Narendra Yadav said, "It is basically co-operative societies, which lose money and employees involved in such acts make co-operatives financially weak. The banks, which make payment against the wheat procured by the societies adjusts it with the commission received by the co-operative society, thus the society incurs financial loss and swindlers manage to earn profits."

In Hoshangabad case, district collector Rahul Jain said, "A case against 60 co-operative societies has been filed with registrar co-operatives and recovery will be done as per norms."

In Hoshangabad, 75,17,701 quintals of wheat was procured through procurement centers, but only 74,52,177 quintals was deposited in warehouses of civil supplies corporation, leaving a gap of around 65,524 quintals!

"Of this, around 23,000 quintals was poor quality wheat, which was rejected and some wheat was also lost in transportation," Jain said.

Thus around 40,000 quintals is supposed to be missing, which is worth around Rs 5.5 crore at the rate of Rs1,350 per quintal.

RJD-Congress Bihar tie-up not yet final; sources say Rahul eyeing JDU

New Delhi:

With the deadlock between Rashtriya Janata Dal and Congress on seat sharing in Bihar continuing, sources in Congress say that party Vice President Rahul Gandhi is interested in forming an alliance with Janata Dal (United).

"Rahul feels that RJD may be a liability, while Nitish is a better option," the sources said.

ALSO SEE Congress hints at not being averse to alliance with JD(U)

Congress top leadership is reportedly upset with RJD chief Lalu Prasad's muscle flexing after Lok Janshakti Party supremo Ram Vilas Paswan chose BJP over RJD and Congress.

However, the sources tell that party chief Sonia Gandhi is against the idea of stitching an alliance with Nitish Kumar's JDU.

ALSO SEE LS polls: Lalu ready to talk further with Congress on Bihar seat sharing

Lalu had on Sunday after his party's parliamentary board meet said that he was open to talks with the Congress over seat sharing. Sources say the logjam between RJD and Congress is over Madhubani and Motihari Lok Sabha seats.

Lalu had offered 11 seats out of the 40 Lok Sabha seats in Bihar to the Congress. The Congress, however, feels that the constituencies offered by RJD are not winning seats as the party had no organisation there.

Janata Dal (United) is now part of a Third Front and will fight in alliance with CPI and CPI(M).

@jha What would be the dynamics & how will this impact NDA alliance, should Congress forge an alliance with JD(U)?
