BANGALORE: With Narendra Modi’s government taking the centre-stage, the UPA appointed members are resigning or asked to quit. National Commission for Protection of Child Rights Chairperson Kushal Singh disclosed how she received phone calls from Sarada Ali Khan, Joint Secretary in the women and child development ministry, and Anil Joshi, Additional Secretary in the ministry, asking her to quit from the post; and regarding this, she moved the court. The court has issued a notice to the ministry regarding this, reports Business Standard.
Apart from this, Chiefs Of Statutory National Commissions, several members of the National Disaster Management Authority and chairperson of the National Commission for Women are under pressure to resign. Reports were also in that Karan Singh, president of Indian Council for Cultural Relations has also been told to resign from the office, though the news is still to be confirmed.
The pressurized members have highly criticized the new government and said they cannot remove anyone from the post with such measures. They should follow the whole lawful legal procedures. Appointments to National commissions are political and NCPCR Chairperson Kushal Singh says that the current development in regard to the resignations and removal of the members of various commissions highlights the flaks in the bodies and remarked that there’s a dire need to bring transparency in the appointments of members in these commissions.
Most of the commissions under the government are statutory bodies, but the national commission for scheduled castes is a constitutional authority, and thus needs solid grounds to remove the chairperson assigned. Its chairperson, PL Punia supported the members of the commission asked to resign and criticized the new government saying that, using such third degree measures of pressurizing people to resign is not in good terms.
