| 'Powerful' JE clings onto chair for 15 years | | Would be transferred soon, says ACD | | Ajay Sharma
Early Times Report
Rajouri, Mar 14: A Junior Engineer of Rural Development Department (RDD) has not been transferred for the past 15-years from Sunderbani sub-division.
Sources told Early Times that recently the Director RDD issued transfer orders of many JEs who had not been shifted from their places for the past five years. “But this powerful JE, who ostensibly enjoys the blessings of some senior officials and politicians was not touched,” sources claimed.
They said that the official in question is so “bold and daring” that he doesn’t pay any attention to the directions of his senior officials. “He (the JE) claims that no one can touch him as he is well connected,” sources alleged.
To a query, why this JE was not transferred during the recent reshuffle in the RDD and how come he has been stationed at one place for the past 15-years, Block Development Officer Raman Sharma couldn’t give a satisfactory answer. Without providing any reply, he disconnected the phone.
Assistant Commissioner Development (ACD) Sunderbani Sushil Khajuria while talking to Early Times said, “You have brought this matter into my notice. If the JE has not been transferred for the past so many years, the issue will be looked into and he will be shifted.” |
