From: Rupesh Garg <rupeshgarg20@yahoo.com> This can be replicated for every illegal / malafide transfer. FYI. RD TRANSFER OF HONEST OFFICIAL REVERSED DUE TO PUBLIC PRESSURE If people wish, they can change government's decisions in favour of public interest by using the right to information. Alert citizens in Mumbai's Chembur area set a unique example by retransferring an honest official to their area. Sudhir Naik an Assistant Corporation Commissioner in Greater Mumbai Metropolitan Council was transferred to the BMC headquarters. He had been to the ward only a year ago but had the image of a good officer due to his foresight and dedication to his work. He had initiated projects like "Zero garbage drive" to keep the ward clean and the people were very happy with the results. The cleaning staff had begun to perform their duties perfectly and the garbage dumps were changing for good. But the decision to remove him from the area after just a year was not amenable to the local residents. A member of he Chembur Citizens' forum N Ganeshan talked to an organization working for the right to information in Maharashtra and it was decided to seek information on the transfer of Sudhir Naik. Kewal Semlani of the Rights Group sought details from the BMC over - Who proposed on the transfer of Sudhir Naik, details should be provided about the person's name, position and date? - What reasons have been cited for his transfer before three years? The photo copy of the files involving the transfer be made available. Whether the recently made laws concerning transfers were taken into consideration? Whether this is a violation of that? The BMC would have been forced to reveal the circumstances under which Sudhir Nayak was removed from his position. But before the beans could spill, Nayak was reinstated in his post in the same ward. One interesting aspect of the entire episode is Sudhir Nayak had no role to play in the entire controversy. He says he is ready to work wherever he is asked to. This may be the first instance of the power of public prevailing upon the government to stop the transfer of an official who is considered honest, upright and delivering the goods. * * * Rajesh Darak Mera Bharat Mahaan...Nahi Hai, Per Yeh Dosh Mera Hai.
