CBEC Charge of Members
IN recent months, the charge held by Members of the CBEC had been changed several times mostly due to new Members joining.
It has now been decided with the approval of the Competent Authority to issue a consolidated charge order of the Members of CBEC.
There is a fairly stable Board now with most of the Members having more than a year of service left. This is a great opportunity to do some great work, if the Board can function as one cohesive unit.
There seems to be a mysterious Competent Authority lurking in the dark in every department. They don't tell us who this Competent Authority is. Most probably it is the Minister; if it is so, why are they shy of revealing his authority?
The Members of the CBEC with their charges and date of retirement are as:
Sl.No. | Name | Member's Charge | Date of Retirement |
|---|---|---|---|
1. | Mr. Najib Shah | Chairman | 31.03.2017 |
2. | Ms. Neerja Shah | Central Excise | 30.09.2016 |
3. | Ms. Vanaja N. Sarna | Administration | 30.06.2018 |
4. | Mr. Ram Thirath | Budget | 30.04.2017 |
5. | Ms. Ananya Ray | Legal & IT | 31.08.2017 |
6. | Mr. BK Bansal | Customs | 31.10.2016 |
7. | Mr. Krishna Kumar Sharma | TPS, ST & GST | 31.03.2017 |
Incidentally, the Chairman Mr. Najib Shah seems to be continuing as PDG, DRI. Couldn't the Government find one Chief Commissioner capable of heading the premier investigative agency? Now who does the DG, DRI report to? Is he an officer without a boss? Mr. Najib Shah, as DRI Chief will report to Mr. Najib Shah, the Chairman of CBEC.
