Subject: Suicide
by one of our officers in Surat.
Sir,
With heavy heart, an incident of suspected
suicide by one of our officers namely Sh. M. Srinivas stationed at Surat is
brought to your kind notice. He was
posted as Superintendent in Surat Commissionerate and committed suicide. His
dead body was found on 07.10.23. Earlier, he was posted in Vadodara-II
Commissionerate at Bharuch.
2. He was a
reputed and sensitive officer but was repeated to a non-sensitive charge
against the policy by putting star mark against his name. This demoralised and
humiliated him because of his reputation being brought down. The star mark was
removed later after his death. It is not understood how administration can be
so insensitive and indifferent forcing our officer to take such extreme step.
3. Our
officers are already working under tremendous pressure due to over work,
shortage of working hands, shortage of infrastructure, inefficient system
software/AIO, every minute futile reports, the poorest career prospects etc.
Every responsibility has been imposed on Superintendents instead of making
equitable work distribution among all cadres like Income Tax and State GST.
There is no revenue related work assigned to Commissioner and above in GST but
they are enjoying 8-9 promotions in the career and headship/membership of any
commission/tribunal after retirement.
4.
Transfer/postings guidelines are not being followed. Their ego is more
important to the concerned authorities instead of following the norms. They
behave merely like administrative heads instead of family heads without
understanding that they are our welfare officers also. Their behavior is
totally high-handed and inhumane. Every Chief Commissioner/Commissioner molds
the guidelines as per his/her individual pleasure without thinking impartially
about the stake holders. This is not kept in the mind that now in “on line work
system” sensitive and non-sensitive postings have lost the meaning.
5. We are
unable to express what and against whom action should be initiated after suspected
suicide by Sh. Srinivas. Our request is to kindly get the matter investigated
thoroughly to punish the guilty not to repeat such sad incidents. The copy of
the letter written by the General Secretary (also President of this All India
Association) of our Vadodara Unit to the Principal Chief Commissioner of
Vadodara Zone is also enclosed for further details alongwith enclosures.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
Encl: As above.
(HARPAL SINGH),
Secretary
General.
