Do or die – otherwise favour the particular contractor!

Direct threats with immediate transfer if the officers did not pay illegal allegiance to them under the name and behest of the Hon’ble Minister for Railways!

The officers are paying the penalty of their sincerity, dedication and devotion to his duty and the Indian Government, and for not listening to corrupt contractors

Exposed red handed victimization of Chief Signal & Telecom Engineer, Construction, South Eastern Railway (CSTE/Con/SER) due to collusion between leaders of contractors running the Signalling cartel.

#Railwhispers was aware of such threats, and also informed Railway Board MR Cell well in advance. The officer concerned threatened to face dire consequences, did his duty and was punished, and transferred immediately.

Judicial┬аmisconduct┬аbreaks down the very fibre of what is necessary for a functional judiciary – citizens who believe their judges are fair and impartial. However, a Government Head of the Department can commit misconduct by engaging in personal behaviour that calls their judicial integrity into question.

The result, overnight, CSTE/Con, Garden Reach, South Eastern Railway is interchanged or shunted out within three days after threats.

Grave injustice was done in the recent past against some officers by the above collusions between leaders of contractors running the Signalling Cartel in the Railways.

#Railwhispers has been following the threatening and unjust pressure being created on the officer over last one month which included calls after office hours from Railway Board – Data of Number with date and time available from sources – threatening him to make decisions in favour of a particular contractor in Signaling work tenders of Rs. 111 and Rs. 88 crores, and purchase MSDAC through Works and not through Stores.

In fact, intercepting the call records of the Railway Board’s landline number 011 2338 2657 will prove that after office hour the calls were made to intimidate the officer with threats for his immediate transfer if he did not pay illegal allegiance to them under the name and behest of the Hon’ble Minister for Railways.

Further we have been following up from officers of SER that time and again this officer was pressurized by PCSTE/SER to favour the some Signalling contractor and decide tenders in their favour by meeting them.

This officer is paying the penalty of his sincerity, dedication and devotion to the Indian Government and for not listening to corrupt contractors. Investigation of records will prove – data available on records.

As per reliable sources, tender committee (TC) members has time and again delayed finalization of tenders by not making decisions for months and keeping the tender files with them and continuously referring back files with invalid justifications and making a scapegoat of delaying the process.

The approval of many technical requirements has been intentionally delayed and the works have suffered, and once again the officer has been charged with the false allegations. File notings reflect the facts.

According to office sources, the officer concerned was being forced by contractors and PCSTE/SER to float MSDAC tenders through Works and not Stores, and when this officer refused to accept purchase of MSDAC at double and exorbitant prices, and issued demand for purchase through Stores, and that also clubbing of demands for economical purchase, he is punished with transfer for not obeying the corruption involved.

“There is no justification for such transfer as is done just because he did not accept the threat and verbal instructions of his senior officers for the following issues to support their collusion with the particular signalling contractor!” said a senior official of South Eastern Railway.

Purchase of Axle Counter (MSDAC) at double price through Works than Stores and without clubbing the demands.

Disqualify PSUтАЩs in two tenders of SER Works so that ‘Reverse Auction’ does not take place.

Design, Manufacturing, Supply, Erection, Installation, Testing and Commissioning with the provision of Automated Signalling and Distributed Electronic Interlocking System.

a) Tender No.: ST-CON-ROU-JSG- BRPL-6EI Closing Date/Time: 25/07/2022

b) Tender No.: ST-CON-ROU-JSG- AUTO10 Closing Date/Time: 15/07/2022

“Investigating the files will reveal the timing at which he is transferred as the tenders were about to be finalised qualifying the PSU and now with his transfer the corrupt Signalling contractor who already has vigilance investigations going on in SER, ER and many other Zonal Railways for illegal variations of upto 100% of his original contract value with short supply etc can benefit”, sources said.

Investigations will reveal that he is an expert bureaucrat who has been made scapegoat of the wrongdoings of his senior officers who, have now with Approval of the GM/SER transferred him and placed the CSE/GRC/SER who – as per sources – is a doubtful integrity and tainted officer with vigilance cases in his position so that he can obey the corrupt verbal advises of the seniors.

It is known that the officer has been put in this position at the behest of his senior who is in the pay roll of illegal gratification of the Signalling contractors who has influenced the senior to recommend such transfer.

The Minister for Railways, Chairman/CEO, Railway Board, CVC, PED/Vigilance, Member Infrastructure, AM/Signal and the General Manager, South Eastern Railway is requested to immediately intervene to stop such injustice and victimization of the officers as available records on file prove the facts that such unjustified action is a totally biased and will demoralize Railway officers throughout the Indian Railways who try to fair and legal work and not get influenced by illegal verbal threatening of their seniors, and not accept illegal gratifications from corrupted cartel of contractor.
