APPOINTMENT OF NEW CCIC
The Central Information Commission is not a dumping yard for the tainted or officers loyal to any particular leader or Minister. In the past, Ms. Omita Pal joined the CIC just before the 2004 Lok Sabha elections and after the win of UPA; she re-joined back the Shri Pranab Mukherjee's staff after few days of her joining the Commission. Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Mrs. Sushma Swaraj had opposed the appointment of Shri P J Thomas as the head of the CVC because of alleged Palm Oil scam. Now, he is facing charges in one more scam i.e. 2-G spectrum. Leader of the Opposition is a member of the Selection Committee for the of CCIC and CIC's and though, it can be presumed that she will not agree for the tainted bureaucrat as CCIC but she should also be sounded in advance by meeting her personally or / and through emails by the stake holders in this matter as the term of present CCIC is expiring with the end of this year. But before that, if possible, we should also be convinced about the veracity of this news the Thomas' name is being considered for the post of CCIC.
According to today's Dainik Jagran now, name of Mr. Thomas is missing from the list of tainted officers handed over to the Supreme Court though the permission from the govt. to file charge sheet against him was solicited in 2000. His name also does not appear in such lists on the website of CVC or CBI.
