Aviation ministry to send back all junior staff on deputation from various PSUs to save sensitive data

NEW DELHI: The civil aviation ministry has for the first time decided to send back all executives below the rank of assistant manager who are on deputation to the ministry from various public sector undertakings, an attempt to further tighten loopholes that could lead to leakage of sensitive information.

"The decision to send back the subordinate staff on deputation was taken on Thursday at a meeting of senior officers to make security at the ministry foolproof," said a senior official. The staff on deputation at the offices of both Union civil aviation minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju Pusapati and the minister of state Mahesh Sharma will also be asked to return to the PSUs, added the official, who did not wish to be identified. Airports Authority of India, Pawan Hans Helicopters and Air India,the three PSUs under the civil aviation ministry, have staff on deputation to the ministry. "There are a large number of such employees working in the ministry and a list will be prepared in some time," said the official.
