9 May 2014 A boisterous scene in the campus of IIT Madras at Chennai
Part III (in continuation of the earlier two Presentations) 9 May 2014
TIME: FIRST WEEK OF MAY, 2014 PLACE: ADMINISTRATIVE WING OF THE IITM CAST: THREE OFFICERS 9 May 2014
¡°Ha ha! Ha ha! Ha ha!¡± ¡°Heh he! Heh he! Heh he!¡± ¡°Hoh ho! Hoh ho! Hoh ho! Hoh hoh ho! Hoh Hoh ho!¡± 9 May 2014
Noise of three officers laughing aloud reverberates the entire area around the administrative wing. . We peep in. The noise becomes louder with every passing moment. 9 May 2014
¡°Yeah! It serves them right! Hah hah haa! Hah hah ha! The Promotion Notice is now on the website. It serves them right!¡±, says Mr. A. 9 May 2014
¡°Yeah! The timing is perfect! This is May! We have published in our website the Promotion Notice for the post of Junior Superintendent. Nobody can go to Court now and ask for stay¡±, said Mr. A. ¡°Yes, yes! This being the period of vacation, it is difficult for anyone to move the High Court and get stay¡±, said Mr. B. ¡°But, we must be alert. We have announced that the last date for submission of application is 23.05.2014. That was a tactical move on our part¡±, said Mr.C. ¡°Tactical move? People say it was a cunning move on our part. But, why should we care? We must hold the so-called written examination immediately and conduct the interview also on the same day. We must publish the result also on the same day and make the people of our choice join duty before 31.05.2014. We must act fast¡±, says Mr. A.
? Hah hah ha! Why bother yourself about it? We have already done so in the case of Superintendents in February 2014. We can do so again. And again and again. Nobody on earth can question our motive¡±, said Mr. C. ? ¡°But, people, now a days, have understood our motive and have the temerity to challenge it too. That is what is shocking¡±, said Mr. B. ? ¡°Why do you bother about their understandings or awareness. As long as we are able to continue with our irregularities without being questioned by the MHRD, we can do whatever we want¡±, said Mr. C. ? ¡°The very act of rushing through the promotion process is the indication of our mala fide motive. But, nobody can prevent us from doing what we want. This IIT has been given to us and we can play with it in any manner that we choose¡±, said Mr. A.9 May 2014
? ¡°Hah hah hah haa! These people do not know how omnipotent we are. We have become experts in committing so many irregularities for the past twenty years that committing irregularities has beecome a habit for us now¡±, said Mr. A. 9 May 2014
¡°I only feel concerned that our staff members have become courageous to question our actions in the Court of Law. It becomes difficult for us to defend ourselves there¡±, said Mr. C. ¡°Do not worry about court cases! As long as we do not file counter-affidavit, we need not fear court cases¡±, said Mr. A. ¡°But, how long can be pull on without filing counter- affidavit?¡±, said Mr. B, with real concern. ¡°Why do you worry about it again? Just call for the list of cases in which we have not filed counter-affidavit for months and years and years. That list itself will give adequate encouragement to you and embolden you not to file counter-affidavits for a very long time. Hah hah hah haa!¡±, said Mr. A, rolling with laughter. 9 May 2014
¡°I am happy that we have such a nice strategy. As long as courts do not pull us up, we can commit any kind of irregularity and escape accountability. Moreover, we have now got power delegated by the Board of Governors to the Director to make ?administrative changes? in the educational qualification and experience. So, we can hereafter do whatever we want¡±, said Mr. B. ¡°No. You are not well-informed. The Board cannot give power to the Director through Resolution. Any power given to the Director must come to him only through Statutes. If the Director invokes the power conferred on him through the Resolution of the Board, it would be in violation of Sec. 17 (4) of the Institutes of Technology Act, 1961. We would be pulled up. Yet, we do not care for those provisions, because our MHRD is with us. Hah hah haa!¡±, said Mr. C. 9 May 2014
? ¡°If you take action to run the Institute as per law, you must amend the Statutes to aler the Conditions of Service and then you must obtain the approval of the Visitor for that, before enforcing that amended provision. Sec. 27 (3) of the Institutes of Technology Act, 1961 says so¡±, said Mr. A. ? Mr. B looked puzzled. He could not understaand what Mr. C was saying. He asked, ¡°Visitor? Who is that Visitor? Why should we get the approval of the visitors for our Statutes?¡± ? ¡°Hah hah haa¡±, laughed Mr. A. ¡°Hoh hoh hoh hoh ho¡±, laughed Mr.C. 9 May 2014
? Mr. C composed himself then and said to Mr. B, who felt annoyed at being laughed at by his colleagues, ? ¡°Dear friend, I do understand your question. I do not blame you. The way we have been functioning here, we have forgotten the very existence of the Visitor. All our amendments to the Statutes must be approved by the Visitor, the President of India, as per Sec. 27 (3) and (4) of the I.T. Act, 1961. Have you forgotten that?¡± 9 May 2014
Mr. B felt a sense of relief. ¡°Oh! That Visitor? I have really forgotten about his existence. Anyway, we never read the Act and Statutes while making recruitments or giving promotions. None of our actions in new recruitments and promotions of the teaching and non-teaching faculty was as per the provisions of these Act or Statutes, for the past twenty years. We never amend the Statutes in the matter of appointments. Naturally, the way all of us have forgotten the existence of the Act and the Statutes, I had forgotten the existence of Visitor too¡±, said Mr. B. 9 May 2014
¡°Yes, we never amend the Statutes. We just get Resolutions passed by the BOG and enforce it. It is plain unlawful. But, because the MHRD which channelises Government money to us does not worry about it, we are free.¡±, said Mr.C. Mr. A interjected to console B who, however, had some sense of embarrassment at his own ignorance. 9 May 2014
¡°Oh, Mr. B! Do not worry so much about your lapse of memory. We do not worry even about the Court Judgment which pulled us up and ordered that we should not choose the Resolutions path without amending the Statutes and obtaining the approval of the Visitor before hand. We are consciously violating Sec. 17 (4) and Sec. 27 (4). Nothing happened to us till date. Why worry then?¡±, said Mr. A. 9 May 2014
¡°Court Judgment? What judgment is it?¡±, aksed Mr. B. ¡°It is the judgment of the Hon?ble High Court of Chennai in the case filed by our faculty Mr. R. Krishnamurthy. The judgment had been delivered on 14.10.2003. It was about ten years ago. The Court explained the legal position to us. The court did not approve our stand that the Resolutions were enforceable in the matter of conditions of Service. The Court advised us to amend Statutes before doing whatever we wanted to do. But, we did not care. We are doing just what were doing and we are doing whatever we want to do. Nobody could do anything with us, so far. Hah hah hah hah haa!¡±, laughed Mr. A. 9 May 2014
¡°That is why we have issued the Promotion Notice now for the post of Junior Superintendent now after so many years, instead of doing it every year as per the order of the DOPT. And, we have done it in our own usual style¡±, continued Mr. A. ¡°Can you please explain it to Mr. B?¡±, asked Mr. C. ¡°Yes, yes. Why not? For the post of Junior Superintendent, we have prescribed the following qualification: The experience qualification for applying for that post is ?6 years as Senior Assistant in GP 2800? Or ?6 years in Junior Assistant n GP 2400 through MACP and above? in an administrative cadre post in IITMadras? 9 May 2014
? ¡°Now, we have equated the Junior Assistants who got MACP with the Senior Assistants who have put in large number of years of service. It is only the Senior Assistants who constitute the Feeder cadre for promotion to the post Junior Assisants. The lower cadre people with MACP cannot be considered, as per the DOPT Norms. MACP does not make a person a promotee to the higher cadre. Categorical instructions are there. Yet, we do not care. We can do whatever we want. We want to do in on purpose. This advertisement would create an initial stand off between the Senior Assistants and Junior Assistants¡±, said Mr. A ? ¡°But, why do you call it as the ?initial stad off?? They would remain permanently divided, I feel¡±, asked Mr. B. 9 May 2014
? ¡°No, they won?t be. Because, it won?t, actually, benefit all the people in the cadre of Junior Assistants. In the name of Selection Process, we do overlook the seniors and bring up the Junors. We choose only the persons who would put up filenoting as per our directions without any hesitation and without citing the rules on the subject. As the seniors get overlooked in the process, the seniors in the cadre of Senior Assistants and the overlooked seniros in the cadre of Junior Assistants would again join together after the Selection Process is over. The initial stand off would vanish soon. But,..¡±. 9 May 2014
? ¡°But? ¡­ But what?¡± asked Mr. B. ? ¡°But, there would be another stand-off between the persons selected and persons overlooked. We can use one against the other always¡± explained Mr. A. ? ¡°That is called the Divide-and-Rule system. Because, the persons not selected come to know the criteria based on which the persons selected had got selected. There would always be that stand off, forever. Hah hah hah hah haa¡±, laughed Mr. C.9 May 2014
? ¡°Hah hah hah hah haa! Yes, yes. That is how we run the IIT. We do not run it in an objective way to ensure public interest by conferring whatever was due to them as per the Central Government Rules and Order. We do have our own Rules and Orders to protect our Private Interests¡±, said Mr. A. ? ¡°But, the persons selected by us for promotion to higher cadres do not know the real truth¡±, said Mr. C. ? ¡°What could be that truth? After all, they have been selected for higher posts and they must be happy about it¡±, said Mr. B. 9 May 2014
? ¡°No. We select only those who would do our bidding. So, when they put up filenotings, they would just put up in the manner in which we want it. They would not cite the rules- position. If and when the issue crops up later and some investigation takes place, we can escape saying that the Junior Superintendents, Superintendents or Assistant Registrar did not guide us properly. It is only these people who will be caught. They would not be able to explain why they did not examine the cases and put up filenoting as per rules.¡±, said Mr. A. After a pause, he said, ¡°We must take this essential precaution, because the CBI investigation will be there at any moment, although we try to stall it¡±, said Mr. A. ? ¡°Hah hah hah hah haa! I understand now how clever we are. The persons not selected for promotion will suffer now because of non-promotion. But, the persons selected will suffer later because of the very promotion. Hah hah haa¡±, said Mr. B.9 May 2014
? ¡°Yeah! I pity those people who joined IITM as Junior Assistants. They would have imagined that they could get promotions in due course as is being done in other Central Government Departments. But, once they enter, they would know that promotion here is not earned on the basis of honest work but only by pleasing us¡±, said Mr.A. ? ¡°Yes! We have simply thrown into dustbin all the instructions of the DOPT on vacancy-based promotion¡±, said Mr. C. ? ¡°We denied the scope for promotion to people who are honest and sincere to the organisation. We also made them to believe that the MACP alone was their right. We made them believe that they got higher status also because of the MACP. Is it not a joy to be a sadist? We got promotion for us but we deny promotion to others¡± said Mr. A. 9 May 2014
? ¡°Hah hah haa! The IIT is for us. We can do whatever we like. The MHRD is imagining that they have created world- class institutions. But, no institution can serve its purpose, unless the Administrative Procedure followed there is right. We have simply pooh-poohed the Government of India orders on all administrative matters. Yet, nobody dares to question us. Hah hah ha! For example,, ¡­.. Hah hah ha! Hah hah ha!¡±, laughed Mr. C. 9 May 2014
9 May 2014
? ¡°For example, what?¡±, asked Mr.B who could not control his curiosity. ? ¡°Hah hah ha! For example, nobody knows how and why we have shown that there are 5 vacancies in the cadre of Junior Superintendents. We maintain Rosters in such a way that nobody would ever know. That is why, I also do not know. Hah hah haa! You know that in the case of teaching faculty, we have already given unlawful reply to the National Commission for Scheduled Castes on 16.05.2012 that ¡°the IIT Madras has only overall Institute-wise sanctioned strength ¡­ and hence there is no roster. Yet, nobody questions us. Hah hah haa!¡±.9 May 2014
9 May 2014
? ¡°Hah hah hah hah haa! Anyway, it is for the Dealing Assistants, Superintendents and the Liaison Officer to explain how and why the vacancies are 5, and how and why there were no vacancies in the cadre of Junior Superintendents for so many years. It is not for us to explain. We can escape. Hah Hah Hah Hah Haa!, said Mr. A. ? ¡°Yes, yes. We need not explain to anyone even the unlawful decision taken by the Board of Governors on 10.12.2013 authorising the Director to ¡°make administrative changes¡± .. in terms of Educational qualification & Experience, if necessary, with information to the Board. The Board cannot do so. But, we need not explain it to anyone¡±, said Mr. C roaring with laughter. ? Mr.B joined the chorus too. ¡°Hah hah haa! Yes, yes. It serves them right. We must rush through the selection process of Junior Superintendents. It is a joy to do injustice to the subordinates. Hah hah ha!¡±.9 May 2014
