Union Power ministry has finally appointed a full time chairman at the State-run Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC). R N Sen, Chief Executive Officer of NTPC SAIL Power Corporation Ltd, took up the reins of DVC with effect from June 10.
DVC Chairman’s post has been lying vacant since July 20, 2010, when its previous Chairman Subrata Biswas and IAS officer was prematurely repatriated to his parent cadre, that is Kerala.
Before Biswas had taken over as the Chairman of DVC, the State-run power utility had been without a full time chairman for ten months also.
DVC Officers’ Forum spokesman Ashok Mukherjee told FC, “It has been our long pending demand before the union power ministry and union finance minister, Pranab Mukherjee, that someone with engineering background should be at the DVC’s helms to steer the organisation’s ways clear through this crisis. We are happy that the Centre has responded positively.”
