S.G.KORGAONKAR THE COMMISSIONER OF COMMERCIAL TAXES MUST BE SHOWN THE RED CARD
By Aires Rodrigues
The newly appointed Chief Secretary of Goa Kewal Sharma has been urged to immediately suspend the Commissioner of Commercial Taxes S.G.Korgaonkar for failing to file as directed a First Information Report (F.I.R) in the 2011 Commercial Tax Inspectors recruitment scam.
S.G.Korgaonkar has malafiedly failed to comply with the circular dated 14th March last year which had directed all heads of departments to file a F.I.R wherever illegality or fraud was committed in the staff recruitment process from 1st November 2011 to 30th March 2012.
Ironically S.G.Korgaonkar who was also the Chairman of the Departmental Selection Committee has in a letter dated 9th January 2015 to the Government Advocate himself admitted that the recruitment of the Commercial Tax Inspectors was found to be a recruitment scam. S.G.Korgaonkar being the prime accused in the alleged scam, it was incumbent on his part to get the Finance Secretary or Joint Secretary to file the F.I.R in compliance with the government circular. He should now explain his gross dereliction of duty and dishonesty in discharge of his official duties.
Despite there being an Additional Commissioner of Commercial Taxes to take charge, the very tainted S.G.Korgaonkar known to bend and break the rules to the pleasure of his political masters is currently under his third extension in service. He has managed and manipulated to get these extensions although a probe against him is currently pending before the Anti-Corruption Branch of the Vigilance department and besides two other cases pending against him at the office of the Goa Lokayukta.
The Goa government repeatedly publicly vows on Zero tolerance to Corruption but this sordid state of affairs is there all over for all to see. Let us hope Chief Secretary Kewal Sharma intervenes to ensure that the functioning of the administration does not become a casualty and get derailed from the much needed aura of Good Governance.
