Verbatim |
 Shashi Kant Sharma, Defence Secretary, is a surprise appointment as the new Comptroller and Auditor General following the retirement of Vinod Rai. the fact that as a senior officer in the Defence Ministry he had been a vital part of the decision-making process involving the most controversial purchase of Tatra trucks and the Agusta Westland helicopters, it ought to have automatically ruled him out for appointment as CAG. Conversely, the fact that as a bureaucrat he was a party to these deals may be precisely why he was appointed the CAG. He cannot be expected to pick holes in the very deals he had sanctioned as a senior bureaucrat in his new role as the CAG. Simple. But this shows how brazen the UPA has become in trying to put a tight lid over its scams. However, the last word on Sharma's appointment as CAG is still to be said. A conscientious citizen has challenged the appointment through a PIL in the Supreme Court.
