Missing IRS Officers - what happened to them?
SOMETIME back DDT had reported about 19 missing IRS officers, which news was picked up and widely circulated.
It had its echo in Parliament too.
In the Lok Sabha Prof.Saugata Roy asked,
Will the Minister of FINANCE be pleased to state?
(a) whether some senior officers including a Commissioner rank officer in Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC) are missing and not reported for duty since the last five years;
(b) if so, the details thereof and the action taken by the Government to trace such senior officers and achievements made therefrom;
(c) whether the Government has taken any disciplinary action in this regard; and
(d) if so, the details thereof?
It is heard that in a written reply, the Government had informed that out of the 19, two have been dismissed and one had resigned. What happened to the 16 others? God Knows!
