Legal Corner Icon — the image was hosted by the publisher and was not captured.Former Revenue Secretary K.M. Chandrasekhar assumed charge as the Union Cabinet Secretary, the topmost bureaucrat of the Country.
As Revenue in Secretary, it was his dream that the CBEC/CBDT web sites should be the first to upload the Government notifications and circulars. The Boards understood it as “don’t release the notifications till the official web sites are able to carry them – may be after two weeks. DDT called him up and asked him the justification for suppressing government notifications. He admitted that he only wanted them to be published in the official websites and this did not mean that notifications are to be kept a secret till they are carried in the official websites. Now maybe as Cabinet Secretary, he can ask all his secretaries not to shy away from publishing the government’s proclaimed policy. DDT wishes the top Babu all the Best.
