Post of PSPCL director generation lying vacant since May

The post of director (generation) in the Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL) has been vacant since May 8 when previous incumbent SK Puri retired.

In the absence of a regular appointee, the charge is held by director (finance) Jatinder Goyal. In June, the recruitment for the post was stalled despite the fact that 23 engineers and power sector experts applied for it. The Punjab government then had rejected the entire panel, saying none was found eligible and the process will be initiated afresh soon.

“It has been two months when the panel was rejected, but nothing has moved forward,” said a senior engineer in the power corporation.
