New Delhi (07.08.2025): If some well-placed sources are to be believed, a Parliamentarian has initiated the process of raising question in Parliament citing recent selection interviews for CMDs in CPSEs under Power and Oil ministries in particular.

The way PESB in recent past asked the concerned ministries of the important Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) to take Search-cum-Selection Committee route for selection of its top leadership, many concern and questions popped up. If over a dozen people interviewed and rejected, do these organisations have real dearth of talent or this is an attempt of passing the buck or something else. The gravity of the matter is such that it has been taken up in Parliament with questions like ‘what steps are being taken to strengthen the internal talent pool and nurture the future leadership within CPSEs’ and ‘if the government intends to review the existing selection process for CMDs of CPSEs to ensure greater transparency and predictability.’
