The IAS was conceptualized for this purpose only. But closeness to the politicians overpowered the humans. If happens to every human; albeit too a lesser extent in some organisations like Defence Services. A change in training pattern might bring some change.
He's Tukaram Mundhe, a 2005-batch IAS from Maharashtra.
Over the last few weeks, you might have heard his name. That is because he was recently appointed Commissioner of State’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Since taking charge, the FDA has been on an absolute warpath, raiding illegal, fake, synthetic, and adulterated products. From synthetic milk networks and adulterated paneer to illegal gutkha and unhygienic eateries, nothing has escaped his radar.
Mundhe has made it clear that even the most famous names will not get a free pass. His department shocked Mumbai by suspending the food licenses of iconic establishments, such as the 73-year-old Marine Drive ice cream parlor K. Rustom & Co., alongside famous eateries like Shalimar Hospitality, Noor Mohammadi Hotel, and Rahmaniya Restaurant, after surprise inspections uncovered severe hygiene violations, including live pests and expired ingredients.
Such is the fear of his crackdowns that, just two days ago, dairy farmers were caught on video spilling hundreds of liters of synthetic milk after rumors of an impending FDA raid spread.
This is his 25th transfer in a 21-year career, a testament to his refusal to bend to political pressure. It makes you wonder: if just one IAS officer can bring about so much change, where would our country be if every bureaucrat were as uncompromising and proactive as him?
@TheKhelIndia Utter nonsense. The official should be taken to task. And the decision maker too. After all she did jump the hurdle which took her extra second as she had to change the lane.
@DcWalaDesi@AmbSibiGeorge But the ambassador still did not answer about the PM not holding press conferences to avoid taking direct queries from the media.

In the latest #ExpertView, Wg Cdr Vikas Kalyani (Senior Fellow, CAPSS) argues that the #IAF is uniquely positioned as the lead enabler of Indian #MDO, providing the cross-domain ISR, networks, long-range precision strikes and paving the path for #C5ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance), the backbone essential for joint success.

@AmolAwate79 Simply fantabulous. There cannot be a more efficient combination than a defence officer becoming a civil servant. Kudos to his talent and dedication.

There are others as well but the previous ones, I don't remember. You can ensure a simple technician visit for a customer with Gold AMC even after multiple requests speaks very low of your customer care. Pl intervene.
