Petitions to the Authorities

To
Her Excellency,
The President of India
New Delhi.

Madam,

Sub:- Irregularities in the recruitments made by the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission under Notification No. 10/2004- Request to invoke Article 317 and call for an enquiry by the Supreme Court- Reg.

Ref:- Petition dt.18-03-10 requesting you to invoke provisions of Art 317

Encl:- 1.Copies of the marks information furnished by the APPSC.
2. News article of the English daily The Hindu dt. 28-03-10.

Madam, even before the controversies regarding the Group-I recruitment died down, equally shocking facts regarding Group- II recruitment made by the APPSC have come out in the open.

It is very shocking to notice the exact pattern of Group-1 repeat wherein people from the reserved categories who had top scored in the written secured abysmally low marks in the interview, while some who secured less marks in the written exam scored heavily in the interviews … should we call it “coincidence” or should we say “intentional”?

Madam, this data pertains to 617 posts of the Group-II examination held under the Notification No. 10/2004:

As regards 617 posts of the Group-II Services, viz. Dy. Tehsildar, ACTO, Municipal Commissioner- Grade -111, Excise S.I. etc, out of the 73 who scored less than 25 marks out of 50, 41 belong to the BCs (i.e. 56%), 15 SCs. Least marks (6) were awarded to an SC and BC candidate. The analysis of 73candidates mentioned above pertains to those who scored more than 250 marks out of 450 in the written, i.e. 55% and above. The physically challenged haven’t been included.


Madam, you would be aware that the UPSC and other Public Service Commissions in India hardly, if ever, award more than 80% in the interview to any candidate. It was shocking to note that the average marks of the selected candidates for Group-II posts belonging to a particular community was 40 out of 50 marks, which in itself is 80% (where as in Group-I it was 73 out of 90 marks) while the average marks for OCs (other than that community) was a reasonable 37; and 33 for SCs, 33 for BCs and 28 for STs.

Madam, an unbelievably high 169 out of the total 617 candidates were awarded marks equal to or more than 80% in the interviews, i.e. 40 or more out of 50. Further, a staggering 60 candidates were awarded 45 marks or more, i.e. in excess of 90%... the highest being 48. i.e., 96%.

Madam, as you would be aware, the Public Service Commissions along with the Supreme Court, Election Commission and the CAG are the bulwarks of the Constitution itself. “Impurity”, “deficiency” in any one of them should not be condoned and should be dealt with firmly.

I, sincerely, request you again Madam, to invoke the provisions of the Article 317 of the Constitution which states that, “… the CHAIRMAN or any other Member of a Public Service Commission shall only be removed from his office… on the ground of misbehaviour according to the report of the Supreme Court which shall hold an enquiry on this matter on a reference being made by the President.”

Madam, I humbly request you call for a Supreme Court inquiry by exercising the powers vested in you under the Art. 317 of the Constitution of India into this matter so that the truth is brought out into the open and the trust of the common man, at least, in Autonomous Institutions is restored.

Thanking you Madam,

Yours faithfully,

To
His Excellency,
The Governor of Andhra Pradesh,
Raj Bhavan, Hyderabad.

Honourable Sir,

Sub:- Request to invoke provisions of Article 320 of the Constitution of India in view of the obvious irregularities committed by the APPSC in the Group-I and Group-II recruitments- Reg.

Encl:- 1.Petition made to the President of India dt: 06-04-10

2.Marks sheets of Group-II under Notification No. 10/2004 furnished by APPSC under the RTI Act, 2005.

Sir, having cleared the UPSC exam you would be aware that the UPSC and other Public Service Commissions, viz. TNPSC, etc, hardly, if ever, award more than 80% in the interview to any candidate. It was shocking to note that the average marks of the selected candidates for Group-II posts belonging to a particular community was 40 out of 50 marks, which in itself is 80% (where as in Group-1 it was 73 out of 90 marks), while the average marks for OCs (other than that community) was 37; and 33 for SCs and BCs and 28 for STs.

That’s not all Sir, an unbelievably high 169 out of the total 617 candidates were awarded marks equal to or more than 80% in the interviews, i.e. 40 or more out of 50. Further, a staggering 60 candidates were awarded 45 marks or more, i.e. 90% or more with the highest being 48. i.e., 96%.

Sir, as you would be aware, the Public Service Commissions along with the Supreme Court, Election Commission and the CAG are the bulwarks of the Constitution itself. “Impurity”, “deficiency” in any one of them should not be condoned and should be dealt with firmly

Sir, the statistics as mentioned above, in addition to those already presented regarding the Group-1 recruitments, are shocking to say the least. The blatant nepotism on display, the unparalleled benevolence on a favoured few on the one hand and the ruthless discrimination shown towards candidates claiming reservation (some of them highly meritorious) on the other, raises serious questions about the integrity and objectivity of the Chairman and the Members. All this smacks of something very sinister, which only a Supreme Court enquiry can resolve. All said and done Sir, with “lower rung” political appointees “adorning” the APPSC what else can we expect ?!

Sir, it is even more shocking that despite (or should I say, for obvious reasons) all the controversies generated after 11-03-2010, the APPSC has announced the schedule for Group-1 exams et al. This in spite of the Chairman and the Members having no moral right to continue as Constitutional Authorities.

However, as a Supreme Court enquiry, even if initiated, would be a long drawn process, I humbly request you to invoke the provisions of the Art. 320 of the Constitution of India, which states that, “the Public Service Commission for the Union, if requested so to do by the Governor of a State, may, with the approval of the President, agree to serve all or any of the needs of the State.”

Sir, this would, in effect, “absolve” the existing Chairman and Members from “serving” the needs of the unemployed and the Government job aspirants and repose our faith in you and your office.

Thanking you Sir,

Yours sincerely,


(SUNAND P)
