[rti4empowerment] Selection of Jawed Usmani as Chief Information Commissioner opposed : Petition sent to Governor Ram Naik

 

Selection of Jawed Usmani as Chief Information Commissioner opposed : Petition sent to Governor Ram Naik

Friends,

I, on behalf of 'TAHRIR' have, through a petition opposed the selection of Jawed Usmani, An IAS officer of the 1978 batch as Chief Information Commissioner of U.P.

I, on behalf of 'TAHRIR' have put forth following facts related to dubious past and incapacity of Jawd Usmani before Ram Naik , the Governor of Uttar Pradesh and requested him not to give a final nod to name Usmani as head of transparency regime in Uttar Pradesh :

1- Possible involvement of Jawed Usmani in 2G scam related case because documents obtained under RTI by activist Vivek Garg had revealed that In a letter dated 10th January, 2006, J.S. Sarma, the then telecom secretary, wrote to Jawed Usmani, joint secretary to the prime minister, and sent a different Terms of Refrences, which were approved by the telecom minister. There Terms of Refrences were totally different from the original Terms of Refrences, in which, the pricing of spectrum was not even mentioned. This was said to be the root cause and beginning of spectrum scam.
2- Possible involvement of Jawed Usmani in Hindalco coal Scam case as Central Bureau of Investigation had earlier decided to question Jawed Usmani, the Chief Secretary of Uttar Pradesh and a former joint secretary in the Prime Minister's Office, regarding the controversial coal block allocation to Hindalco, though "as a witness".
3- Usmani has been a habitual leave taker, a fact revealed by my RTI plea so how come he shall be able to do justice with info-seekers?
4- Usmani was recently removed from the post of Chief Secretary just after Lok Sabha Elections because of his incapacity to deliver to the state as Chief Secretary so how come he shall be able to do justice with even higher post of Chief Information Commissioner of State which is equivalent to Election Commissioner of India?
