In his order, the ombudsman has made it clear that whereas he had already known as for election for the put up of president again in February, issues needed to be placed on maintain as a result of lockdown, however the course of shall be began as quickly as normalcy returns.

“It is to be introduced to note of all, as soon as once more that vide my order(s) dated 15.02.2020 it was directed that elections for the put up(s) of president of DDCA be held. Thereafter, put up of treasurer additionally fell vacant and it was directed that election for the mentioned put up be held/performed together with the election of put up of President of DDCA.

Such sort of motion, behaviour and perspective was extremely uncalled for within the AGM, extra so from a Joint Secretary of DDCA. I’m making this advice to the General Body as a result of Rajan Manchanda has been elected as Director by the General Body and it’s the General Body which should take the choice to take away him.

“Therefore, I direct that this order shall be placed before the General Body (either in Extra Ordinary Meeting or Annual General Meeting, whichever is earlier) as an agenda item and a final decision shall be taken by the General Body but till such time exercising the powers under clause (6)(iv), 7(c) and 7(d), he is hereby restrained from exercising his powers either as Joint Secretary and or member of any of the Committee of the DDCA until final order/decision is taken in this regard by the General Body,” he mentioned.

“It’s a welcome decision by the ombudsman.

In restraining the persons from functioning with immediate effect he has also prevented these people from misusing their positions to further their own interests. It’s high time for fresh elections to take place,” he pointed.
