To
All General Secretaries
AICGWBEA   

Comrades,

                   With reference to proposal for appointment of  Col M.C.Joshi  as Administrative Consultancy in Central Ground Water Board. The matter was discussed in the CEC meeting  held at Hyderabad on 14/2/2013 it was decided to adopt   Nation wide agitation program  to see that Col M.C.Joshi  is not appointed as Administrative Consultancy in Central Ground Water Board. The matter has been taken up with the Chairman CGWB & Secretary MOWR to drop the proposal of appointment of  Col M.C.Joshi  as Administrative Consultancy in Central Ground Water Board.

                      As you are aware that Col M.C.Joshi  was instrumental in violation of transfer norms, for his inefficiency in administration the department suffered , he has no knowledge of administration etc. CGWB does not require services of  such retired persons, as we have more talented persons in our department, his appointment serves  no good to CGWB.  As such all branches of AICGWBEA are directed to adopt following Nation Wide Agitation Program and report the day to day agitation program to CEC. A detailed letter is sent to by post.
