CHANDIGARH: Whistleblower IAS officer Ashok Khemka could be dismissed from service if the Haryana government accepts adverse remarks against him by his superiors in his latest performance appraisal report.Sources said that not only have Khemka's bosses proposed a rating of just five out of 10 for the period between October 15, 2012 and March 31, 2013 for him, the report terms his integrity as "doubtful". During this period, Khemka was managing director of Haryana Seeds Development Corporation (HSDC).Khemka has been at the receiving end of the Haryana government after he exposed alleged shady land deals involving Congress chief Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law, Robert Vadra Sources quoted the PAR saying Khemka "does not hold a good integrity". Punjab and Haryana Bar Association ex-president Kulbir Singh Dhaliwal said comments related to "doubtful integrity" could lead to an officer’s dismissal.The adverse remarks in his PAR may also affect Khemka’s prospects for central deputation as well even though he secured outstanding ranking in his appraisals during the past five years (2007-08 to 2011-12).The government had not assessed his PAR for six months in 2012 when he had exposed Vadra's land deals in Gurgaon.Haryana chief secretary SC Choudhary said the government would examine Khemka's papers when asked about his central deputation. "We are not against the deputation of any officer. It is good that an officer of the state contributes to the central government." He claimed Khemka’s PAR has not been finalized and said "the question of his appraisal being spoilt does not arise".Khemka had written to Choudhary on Thursday and urged him that an average of the grades he earned in previous years may be taken as the assessed grade of his latest PAR.He said the PAR ratings were not disclosed to him even though the limit for it was January 15 as per the rules. Khemka had submitted his self-appraisal for this period but the government has chosen to "file (close) it".He wrote he had taken action against a scam in the purchase of seeds and a fungicide during his tenure as HSDC chief. The CBI has carried out a preliminary inquiry on his complaint regarding the misappropriation of central subsidies. Khemka has alleged a senior agriculture department officer is complicit in the scam.
