Indianmandarins has reliably learnt that Rear Admiral
Shekhar Mital (Retd), former CMD of Goa Shipyard Ltd, may take over as Member, Public
Enterprises Selection Board (PESB) on January 01, 2020. The NaMo administration
had announced his appointment as Member, PESB on 18.11.2019. At present the Board has only one Member (former CRB M K
Gupta) which along with the Chairman (former Petroleum Secretary K D Tripathy) merely
completes the mandatory corum for selection interviews. Mital’s presence on
Board would ease out the selection for CPSEs. Recently, selection for Board-level
positions in CPSEs were on hold for want of the ‘corum’ as the lone Member M K
Gupta was on long leave which kick-started on December 02; the first selection
after November 15. The four member Board, headed by Chairman, requires one more
Member to gather full-strength for which selection committee has already made
its recommendation in the month of October.
