Recruitment in PSUs needs to be streamlined. All CPSEs should have a uniform Recruitment Rules. Presently, each CPSEs have made their own Recruitment Rules. In some of the CPSEs the Recruitment Rules itself allow them to recruit candidates without even advertising the positions. In some CPSE in Oil sector, this has happened even at senior level at the level of GM. Where the candidate was known to the CMD & even when the candidate has not applied against any news paper advertisement, he was selected & initially posted in a JV & then after some time transferred to the CPSE. This is nothing but backdoor entry without following the Govt guidelines on Recruitment in CPSEs. An audit by CVC of all recruitment in Oil sector CPSEs done before 2014 will reveal a lot of scam. Further, recruitment to Group A posts upto the level of Managers should be mandatorily done through written test only. The present Govt has made it mandatory to recruit in Group B posts only through written test. This is a very big step & has removed corruption in recruitment to Group B posts in CPSEs. This same order should be made applicable for recruitment to Group A posts upto the level of Managers. Along with this a uniform Recruitment Rules should be made by Department of Public Enterprise & be made applicable to all CPSEs. more

Tenders are being misused. Say the tender opening authority stealthily informs the person to whom he is favoring shares the tender details and also gets tender in another company's name so that the person favored by the officer surely getting the order. Scrap sales are also a good money earner and the company must concentrate proper sale of scrap through fool proof tenders. more

Corruption can be checked if all tender details & purchase orders are made online. CVC has given a circular in this regard but it is not properly implemented. Details are not published for months to avoid detection. All the Govt Depts should be strictly asked to implement the same. more

1. Political appointments and any appointment by recommendation at any level, must be reason to debar the specific candidate and simultaneously take punitive action against the recommendee. more
