“Umashankar’s suspension smacks of victimisation”

AIADMK general secretary Jayalalithaa has alleged that suspension of IAS officer C. Umashankar smacked of victimisation by the DMK government.
In a statement here on Wednesday, Ms. Jayalalithaa questioned the powers of the State government to place an IAS officer under suspension on the pretext that he had entered the Civil Services using a bogus community certificate.
“All civil service appointments in the country are done by the Union Public Service Commission. It is the responsibility of the UPSC to vet the antecedents of every recruit and verify their certificates,” she said.
She said the DMK government’s claim that Mr. Umashankar, belonging to Dalit community, had entered the service using a forged community certificate had given room for speculation on the reasons behind this.
Ms. Jayalalithaa recalled the government’s decision to launch Arasu Cable Corporation and the appointment of Mr. Umashankar as its Managing Director, and said the real motive behind it was to pose a challenge to the Maran brothers’ Sumangali Cable Vision (SCV).
Scapegoat
Ms. Jayalalithaa said after an agreement was suddenly reached between the warring cousins of Mr. Karunanidhi’s family, the IAS officer was made the scapegoat and shunted out.
She alleged that though Mr. Umashankar was appointed as the MD of Electronics Corporation of Tamil Nadu (ELCOT), he was removed from the post because he questioned the disappearance of ETL Infrastructure Ltd., a subsidiary of ELCOT, along with Rs. 700 crore assets.
Explanation sought
Demanding an explanation from Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi on what happened to ETL and the fate of the Rs. 400 crore invested in Arasu Cable Corporation, she wanted to know why was a Dalit officer in government service being victimised.

Does Prime Minister of INDIA want to LEGITAMIZE eProcurement scandle ?
IT Secretary RAO of AP writes: You are absolutely right on this one. We gave totally misleading figures.
NISG formation is the MASTER PLAN of Mr. R. Chandrashekar, the Add’l Secretary at MIT along with Mr. J. Sathyanarayana CEO of NISG. Both comes from AP Cadre.
NISG knows how to hire Consultants who writes TENDER to suit particular companies favored by Mr. R. Chandrashekar and Mr. J, Sathyanarayana.
Mr. R. Chandrashekar and Mr. J. Sathyanarayana knows how to RIG a TENDER !!
Mr. R. Chandrashekar and Mr. J. Sathyanarayana are making sure eProcurement is not done by Govt. of INDIA and Govt. of Respective States by RIGGING the TENDER.
Mr. R. Chandrashekar and Mr. J. Sathyanarayana making the COUNTRY to be SLAVES of these PRIVATE COMPANIES.
Mr. R. Chandrashekar and Mr. J. Sathyanarayana have inroad into these FRADULENT PRIVATE COMPANIES.
eProcurement of AP information is not on Govt. SERVER. All the information of eProcurement information of AP State is on the SERVER of the PRIVATE COMPANY.
IS this what AP State wants it done ? To sell the STATE eprocurement information to PRIVATE COMPANIES. It is happenning because of Mr. R. Chandrashekar and Mr. J. Sathyanarayana combination.
Even the formation of NISG is in question ?
Even the UNDP funds that were FUNDED for formation of NISG are being MISUSED by NISG !
