Amazing things happening in DoPT. My experience with DoPT is very bad. It is precisely this organisation which has done every thing to scuttle the spirit of Persons with Disabilities Act 1995. It has kept Gp B & A posts out of reservation in promotion by removing this benefit in subsequent memos especially in 29 Dec 2005 memo though the same was available in earlier memos. The Ministry of Social Justice is hand in glove with them for they did not oppose this section when their comments were sought before the Memo was released.
Now, despite CAT's order and several other indictments from various high courts they still are out there to scuttle it and no one is interested. Even the Prime Minister takes blame for wrongfully appointing the CVC when the Supreme Court indicts him and before this they defended it all platforms! Now we are busy fighting for every word in the new disability act being drafted. But if for implementation of every law, we have to go to Supreme Court, where are you headed ? To me this only indicates complete failure of the Government. Its the bureaucracy that governs us today with patronage from their political masters. The ordinary Citizen doesn't count for them. Don't you think the situations are very similar to autocracies in the Arab World which is witnessing citizen's movement to uproot the system. This seems to be the right time. regards Subhash On 4 March 2011 18:22, Eyeway Helpdesk <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear Rajesh Sir, > > I have sent the advertisement in PDF format to your personal ID.
