Hunt for AIR chief: Prasar Bharati turns to pvt sector

[icernet-admin at listserv.cddc.vt.edu]

There are nearly a 1,000 joint-secretary-level officers serving the
government of India, but few are interested in heading the All India Radio,
it seems. The AIR director general’s post has been vacant for one year and
six months, with the CEO, K S Sarma holding additional charge all through.
It’s sister concern, Doordarshan has also been rendered headless earlier
this month. Prasar Bharati has gone into an advertising spree, hunting for
an eligible candidate of the rank of at least a joint secretary for both posts.
