The article has given only a surface view and that too is inflicted with a prejudiced opinion. The writer is an IAS officer of Punjab Cadre, accused of corruption in Punjab on various fronts and incidents. The view expressed is completely infested with this personal interests and ambitions devoid of neutral analysis. Rather than addressing the merits that could come into the system through lateral entry, the article looks like an opinion of a disgruntled officer looking to protect his turf.

Both of them were lacking in maners and proper behaviour. Even their beglhaviour towards my father who is 90 years old was disgusting. Also two IAS officers are CEO of Smart City project of Odisha. What these guys know about town planning. They are tgere to pocket money and pass a part of it to the politicians and ministers.

Perhaps, as the Report Card starts getting drafted, it is time to introspect on how power and opportunities have been converted into beneficial outcomes rather than seeking to sharpen the tools of governance.
