Supriya
Sahu, IAS, has been recommended by the Prasar Bharati Board as the next
DG Doordarshan. She will take charge after approval from the ACC. But
in the meantime, there seems to be a lot of talk over her selection for
the coveted job in the nearly dead organisation. A large chunk of
professionals refuse to accept her credentials as fit to lead a huge
force of techno-programme cadre. The Chairman of the Board too was heard
to be fuming over the coup. He even had a showdown with the CEO.
Sources reveal that to bring Doordarshan back on rails, he was set to
promote a professional culture by inducting internal candidates. It is
also learnt that he had sounded both the Ministers, who gave a nod to
his scheme of things. In such a situation, the unexpected somersault in
the guise of Sahu’s appointment has raised many an eyebrow. The haste to
push the case of the lady officer as the lone candidate is also being
frowned upon. Is a group of bureaucrats apprehending inconvenient times
ahead, behind this move? Are these bureaucrats trying to hide something
that is already known to others!g
