  • Tatra Truck Deal Has Blown the Lid Off a Shadowy World of Arms Dealers Who Operate with Impunity
    Cover Story DEFENCE Tatra truck deal has blown the lid off a shadowy world of arms dealers who SHOOTING IN THE DARK operate with impunity By Sandeep Unnithan & Shantanu Guha Ray n August 2009, a most unusual whistleblower flew into New Delhi. H. Hanumanthappa, 79, a former Congress MP from Karnataka, carried a letter which alleged deviations in the Iway the defence ministry was buying Czech-made Tatra trucks. He was armed with a confidential report prepared by an em- ployee of Bharat Earth Movers Ltd (BEML). The report alleged the Bangalore-based defence PSU had violated defence procurement rules by buying the trucks not from the original equip- ment manufacturer but from a UK-based agent, Ravinder Kumar Rishi. The price of the trucks was also being inflated, he said. The trucks were being imported at between Rs 40 and Rs 80 lakh each but sold by BEML to the Ministry of Defence (MoD) for twice the amount, a mark-up of over 100 per cent. This was not the first alarm on the deal. Red flags had been raised on grounds that MoD was dealing with a trading company instead of an original equipment manufacturer. Since 2006, MOD’s Defence Procurement Procedure makes it mandatory to deal with original equipment manufacturers. In 2005, Brigadier I.M. Singh in the office of the Master General of Ordnance (MGO), responsible for procuring ammunition and vehicles in the army, alleged irregularities in the purchase of Tatra trucks. He was posted out of the MGO. In 2005, a television channel reported on the deal, won- dering how a psu could deal directly with a subsidiary.

    1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Part I Chapter 1 Overview of Defence Sector and Allocation of Resources 1.1 Introductory India is the second most populous country of the world with a population of more than 1.25 billion. The total area of the Country is about 32 lakh sq km which makes it the seventh largest Country in terms of area. Its GDP in nominal terms is sixth largest in the world while in PPP terms it is the third largest behind the USA and China. 1.1.1 India has a strategic location in Southern Asia and has commanding presence over the important navigational passage of northern Indian Ocean between populous East Asia and resource rich West Asia and Africa. It has a coastline of about 7500 kms of which 6100 kms are in mainland while the remaining are in islands. The Country's land borders are twice that of maritime borders, i.e., 15000 kms of which 3323 kms are with Pakistan and 3380 kms are with China. Because of historical as well as strategic reasons, India's western, north-western, northern and north-eastern borders have remained volatile. Though we have remained a peace loving country and have undertaken earnest efforts to maintain and promote peace with all our neighbours, on account of our strategic location and volatile state of relations with some of our neighbouring countries, the defence of the Country has to be given paramount importance. 1.1.2 India has a long tradition of strategic thinking.

  • Master Plan for Kozhikode Urban Area – 2035 FOREWORD I
    Master Plan for Kozhikode Urban Area – 2035 FOREWORD i FOREWORD Kozhikode is an early bird among the cities of Kerala, which took a proactive approach towards planned urban development, as early as in the late fifties, andprepared a Master Plan. Thereafter many statutory and non-statutory efforts towards city planning followed, and the urban area has now prepared the Masterplan for the period from 2015 to 2035. Population results of Census 2011 reveals the increasing share of the districts of north and middle Kerala in the State’s population, foretelling the greater prominence the region would enjoy in the State’s future. Kozhikode, being the prime urban centre of North Kerala from ancient times, therefore, has to remain equipped to benefit from this, as well as to fruitfully perform its role in the economic and social development of the region and the State. For this, land being the most scarce and expensive resource, Kozhikode Urban Area has to formulate and implement specific scientific measures in land use planning, with a long term vision and comprehensive regional outlook, first off. Besides, provision of urban services, management of ecologically sensitive areas, disaster resilience, resource mobilization etc. are to be efficiently planned to ensure the optimal use of the limited funds at the LSGIs’ disposal. The Masterplan for Kozhikode Urban Area, 2035 is an effort towards these. I sincerely appreciate the efforts of the Town & Country Planning Department under the noteworthyguidance of Sri.EapenVarughese, Smt.T.M.Sudha, Chief Town Planners (Rtd), Sri. K Ramanan, Chief Town Planner, Sri. Shaji Joseph, Chief Town Planner (Planning), Smt.Darley D.S.
