Hi All,
I am fwd an article written by a former IPS officer. Since he had served as a DGP in a State , and also of BSF, ideally he should be knowing what he is suggesting here.
To give a bird's eye view of the flab ( and the resultant rot ) . As per the author, just in one state (UP ) , there are 14 DGsP and 42 ADGsP !. Not to be left behind , the UP state bureaucracy has 29 Chief Secretaries, 28 Principal Secy and 61 Secy to the state .Not to be outdone, the Centre boasts of 91 Secretaries ( Not counting the ones on the panel of some autonomous bodies ) and 21 DGs P .
Each of these Secy to the GOI and the Chief Secretaries of the various states claim to be equivalent to the Army/ Navy / IAF Chiefs in protocol and in pay - notwithstanding the chasm between their operational and logistical responsibilities or the span of their command . So, you now can imagine how many persons in the babudom of IAS, IPS and other AIS claim equivalence with the Service Chiefs at any given moment .
And, when you multiply the above hierarchy of one state, with the number of states / UTs in India, one gets an idea of the huge unproductive load and the rot in the babudom . And, the financial demands on the nation.
What is worse, once a person gets into the AIS, he/ she is assured of a rise to the very top in the normal circumstances- unless he / she gets caught red handed with their hands on the till.It is this system ( which the author of the article must have seen from close quarters ) that is suggested to be changed radically for accountability and results .
As things stand, only a bulldozing Modi can bring about such a radical change in our Babudom!.But, considering the hurdles enroute, even he may not find the going easy- unless he wins a massive mandidate in the next general elections and then decided to take the bull by the horns !.
Read on.
Bala
