New Delhi
Sub: Audit at CCS NIAH Baghpat, UP, regarding.
Respected Sir,
One question often boggles me -why not a single audit has been done in CCS NIAH Baghpat under DAHDF, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers welfare?- The Institute came into existence in 2003 and 17 years have gone since its establishment without any audit. It was established after investing hundreds of crore rupees and is run on dozens of crores every year with public money without any audit. Why?
Sir, when I was working there as Act. Director, May-November 2014, I wrote several times for audit and audit team came but returned without doing the audit.
I suspect that embezzlement of hundreds of crore rupees has been done there, the staff is enjoying without doing any work for which the institute was established. 
Sir, I request you to kindly look into the matter at the earliest to see, why audit has not been done in last 14 years, who got benefitted through avoiding the audit, what has been gained after establishing the Institute? 
Sir, I request you to kindly order an early general and scientific audit of the Institute as I felt since long that it is just a burden on Tax Payers of India.

2. To,
The PM of India

Subject: Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) supporting corruption, reg.

Respected Sir,
I wrote dozens of time to DG ICAR and Honourable Minister of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, President ICAR, ICAR through proper channel but of no avail. The matter is of rampant corruption and supporting the corruption at the top levels. 
Sir, as Director CCS NIAH I ordered testing of the quality of foot and mouth disease-FMD- vaccine used under an ambitious program of Govt of India FMD-CP running with thousands of crore rupees since last 14 years but without any impact on disease spread. In testing the vaccines were found to be substandard in 2014 and reported in the first week of November. But corrupt lobby ordered the retesting of the disputed FMD vaccine batches found substandard in my report on 5th November 2014. The committee was constituted under the chairmanship of Dr. Gaya Prasad, then ADG AH ICAR to retest the same batches and samples. The committee ordered retesting of FMD vaccine samples taken from the disputed firms directly by the people not knowing the sampling and not authorized to collect the samples, instead of retesting of the legally collected samples available both at CCSNIAH, Baghpat and archived at Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Bengaluru campus, or testing of the samples collected legally from other places. For retesting Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar, a laboratory, and place not authorized to test FMD vaccine by DCGI, was selected as the venue of the FMD vaccine re-testing with apparent malefic intentions. The illegally collected FMD vaccine samples were tested at Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar between 23-11-2014 to 06-02-2015 and Indian Veterinary Research Institute submitted report thrice on 29-12-2014; 06-01-2015 and 07-02-2015 that is two reports were submitted before completion of the testing. Reality is that samples never brought for testing and reports were forged. Dr. Gaya Prasad submitted the final report on the basis of so-called testing on 12 January 2015, that is 25 days ahead of the completion of the so-called FMD vaccine testing. The report was submitted to High Court, Lucknow, bench saying that it was accepted by the Council. However, council replied to me that the committee report is still under inquiry. From High Court, the same report was made available to IIL, Hyderabad but has not been given to me either on my requests or on my RTIs. On the basis of which IIL has filed a case against me, CCSNIAH, Baghpat, and Secretary, Agriculture, New Delhi at Civil Court Hyderabad).
The formulator of the committee, DDG AS and the Chairman of the committee to forge the fake report in support of producers of low-quality vaccine, both have been rewarded to benefit the producers of substandard vaccines by the post of Vice Chancellors and Expert in the Committee Dr. B Pattnaik is Director of ICAR-PDFMD despite doing embezzlement, charge-sheeted for forgery and facing a personal criminal case for doing forgery and I was made to resign within a week of my truthful report. 
Sir, I request an early inquiry preferably by CBI to expose all involved in maligning the image of your honest government and syphoning the public money into their own accounts, please.

Sincerely yours
BR Singh


3. To,
The PMO, New Delhi
Subject- Request for an inquiry into ongoing corruption in vaccine testing and production at ICAR-Indian Veterinary Research Institute, regarding.
Respected Sir,
Despite the use of vaccines, preventable diseases in animals are out of control every year killing millions of animals throughout India and thousands of cows dying even on Farms Managed by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research under Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare. Sir, it is due to ongoing corruption in quality control of Veterinary vaccines carried out at –ICAR-Indian Veterinary Research Institute as vaccine failure is the major cause of disease outbreaks and such incidences occurred on Government Farms, Private Farms and on Military Dairy Farms.
Sir, my humble request is that a high-level inquiry by an independent agency should be carried out for-
1.         Up to 2011, Indian Veterinary Research Institute used to produce veterinary vaccine in name of lack of GMP at Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar and old facility at Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Bengaluru. The facility for vaccine production at the Bengaluru unit was sold to a private company at a throw-away price; the same facility is in use for vaccine production by the purchaser company.
2.         For creation of GMP compliant facility, at Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar for production of vaccines, a full building was raised spending dozens of Crore rupees about a decade ago, and 36 Crores of rupees were given for furnishing the facility about four years back, but nothing has been done and Nationals Hard money has gone waste. Why is this going on-
ICAR-Indian Veterinary Research Institute is the only agency for quality control testing of veterinary vaccines and biologicals in India and there is a lot of money in passing the vaccine without doing any testing. Testing is either not done or done in a biased way is clear by the facts-
a.         Tested samples are not archived for more than a month at Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar or anywhere else for retesting in case of dispute.
b.         The vaccines intended to be used as injections are never tested for their physical qualities like stability and emulsion quality.
c.         Vaccines are never tested for Sterility as per prescribed protocol through testing 20 vials of a commercial batch. It is evident from the records that in only rarest of the rare instance they test more than 3 vials.
d.         Vaccines are tested, if any, without following the guidelines for safety and potency.
Therefore, I request to kindly initiate an investigation to understand why the agencies to save the country have become traitors, to understand the circumstances under which spending billions of hard-earned rupees GMP facility is not functional even after decades of its installation at Indian Veterinary Research Institute, to identify the traitors and their motives. It is very urgent as we are aiming to double of farmers’ income through profitable livestock farming. If diseases will remain Farmers cannot sustain animal farming.
Yours Sincerely
BR Singh

Grievance Description:Sir, I have filed complaint several times to all the officials in ICAR and President ICAR, Cabinet Minister Shri Radha Mohan Singh time and again to condemn the report of GOI Committee which gave a false report against me defying all the evidence just to harass me. On giving a truthful report about the quality of FMD Vaccine used in India, ICAR formed a committee against me. In case of disputes on quality of vaccines and other medicine, the Drug Controller General of India is the only authority to form such committees but the GOI committee for retesting of the vaccine was formed illegally by ICAR. The request on 10th November 2014 made by me to form an independent inquiry committee was not given any ear where I requested that the committee should have experts with experience in vaccine production, vaccine testing and a member from the DCGI. It was because of the mala-fide intentions to benefit the producers of substandard vaccines The illegal GOI committee having members with expertise in forgery forged the report. The report is based on illegal re-testing of the disputed vaccine batches. The facts are, that Samples tested at CCS NIAH by our team were not re-tested by the committee. Reserve copy of the samples, tested at CCS NIAH, available at IVRI, Bengaluru was also not tested by the committee. Defying all the rules of natural justice and free and fair proceedings, the disputed vaccine samples were collected a fresh directly or provided by the producers of substandard vaccine with prior information to them rather than collection from state depots where vaccines were available, or from State veterinary Hospital where vaccines were being used or from the market. Samples, if collected, were collected by unauthorized persons. Samples for retesting were never received at IVRI Izatnagar and IVRI failed to provide any proof of sample receipts in writing and also failed to show the samples physically. The samples were tested at IVRI, Izatnagar, a place not authorized to test FMD vaccine by DCGI. The testing, if any was done at IVRI, Izatnagar was completed on 6th February 2015 and the report by IVRI, Izatnagar was submitted on 7th February 2015. However, the GOi committee submitted its report based on the said testing 25 days ahead of the completion of the vaccine testing. The report is still with ICAR vigilance since last 2.5 years but it was submitted on 6th February 2015 to High Court at Lucknow claiming that it has been accepted by the Council to malign my image and to protect the substandard vaccine producers. Sir, here I request a high-level inquiry by CBI or any other suitable agency as this is the matter of embezzlement of thousands of crores. Moreover, the FMD causes more than 20 thousand crore rupees loss to country and Indian Government has invested thousands of crores since 2003 without any relief to the cow rearers. Sincerely yours Bhoj Raj Singh

Grievance Description:Why ICAR Supports Corruption and Protects Corrupts? Respected Sir, I want to know the reasons why no action has been taken against people doing corruption in Indian Council of Agricultural Research. The best example is Dr. B. Pattnaik, Project Director ICR-PDFMD, Mukteshwar who has done forgery, who has embezzled the government funds, who has misappropriated the Institute funds, who has minted money through payment of fake bills, who has forged the reports, agreements and official documents? Question is who is the breeder of Corruption at the Council maintaining the nucleus seeds?

यदि आपका उत्तर हाँ में है तो आप इस भ्रम से जितना जल्दी हो सके बाहर आने का प्रयास करें वरना बहुत देर हो चुकी होगी.
नमूने के तौर पर आपके बच्चों को पैदा होते ही चिकित्सकों द्वारा दी जाने वाली फ्लूरो-क्यूनॉलोन (FQ) दवाओं (सिप्रो-फ्लोक्सासिन, ओफ्लोक्सासिन, लीवो-फ्लोक्सासिन आदि) का उदाहरण लेते हैं. १८ वर्ष से कम उम्र के बच्चों को इस दवा के देने से उनके जोड़ों का विकास प्रभावित होता है और बचपन से ही मांस पेशियों एवं जोड़ों के दर्द के शिकार हो जाते हैं, स्नायु तंत्र कमजोर हो जाता है जिससे उनमे मृगी एवं अन्य मानसिक रोग हो सकते हैं. ये ऐसे रोग है जो दवा खाने के महीनों या वर्षों बाद पता चलते हैं और इलाज कुछ भी नहीं.
दूसरी बड़ी समस्या है जीवाणुओं में औषधि प्रतिरोध तेजी से उत्पन्न होता है जिससे कि आने वाले समय में कोई भी ऐंटी-बायोटिक दवा काम नहीं करती.
तीसरे, इसके अलावा भी इन औषधियों (FQ) के प्रयोग से पेट से सम्बंधित रोग जैसे कि मितली, उलटी, पेट दर्द, त्वचा पर लाल धब्बे, एलर्जी, खून में रोगाणुओं से लड़ने वाले श्वते कणों कि कमी, एवं यकृत विकार आदि उत्पन्न होते हैं परन्तु दवा बंद करने के कुछ दिन बाद सही देखभाल से ठीक हो जाते हैं.
प्रश्न यह है कि डाक्टर ये सब जानकार भी आपके बच्चे को ये दवाएं क्यों देते हैं?
कारण कई हैं, जैसे कि
. ये दवाएं रोगणुओं पर काफी असरकारक होती हैं अतः डाक्टर आपके बच्चे को फौरी आराम के वास्ते उम्र भर का बीमार बनाना बेहतर समझते हैं.
. कई बार आपके डाक्टर को इसकी जानकारी ही नहीं होती या मरीजों में अति-व्यस्तता  के कारण भूल जाते. हैं
. भारत सरकार को देश में बीमार लोगों कि आवश्यकता है जिससे कि फार्मा कम्पनियाँ चलती रहें इसीलिए तो सारी दुनिया में बच्चों के लिए इन दवाओं के उपयोग पर प्रतिबन्ध के बावजूद भारत सरकार ने इन्हे प्रतिबंधित नहीं किया है, और तो और ये दवाइयाँ डाक्टर के बगैर दिए भी आपके और आपके बच्चे के पेट में पहुंचती रहें इसका भी पुख्ता इंतजाम है जैसे कि
पशुओं में भी इन दवाइयों को ना सिर्फ इलाज के लिए बल्कि उनमे लगने वाले वैक्सीन में भी मिलाने के अनुमति दी है जिससे कि ये खतरनाक दवाएं दूध और गोश्त के रास्ते आप तक निर्बाध रूप से पहुँच सकें. वो बात अलग है कि दुनिया के सभी विकसित और बहुत से विकास-शील देशों में इन दवाओं को दुधारू पशुओं को देना तो दूर, डेरी फार्म की दवाइयों की अलमारी में रखने पर भी प्रतिबन्ध लगाए हैं. परन्तु हमारा भारत महान है, और महानता पर ना कोई प्रश्न चिह्न होता है ना कोई सवाल "समरथ को नहीं दोस गुसाईं"
  ऐसा नहीं है कि ये औषधी किसी भी हालत में बच्चों को नहीं दी जा सकतीं, OIE एवं  WHO ने कहा है कि डाक्टर इन दवाओं के दुधारू एवं गोश्त के लिए उपयोग होने वाले पशुओं में बिलकुल प्रयोग करे. और बच्चों में इन्हे तभी प्रयोग करें जब अन्य कोई भी औषधि जीवन रक्षा करने में समर्थ ना हो जैसे कि ऐन्थ्रैक्स  होने पर, खतरनाक किस्म का मूत्रनली में इन्फेक्शन होने पर, सूडोमोनास से इन्फेक्ट होने पर, जानलेवा डीसेंट्री या हैजा होने पर, या टीबी होने पर इनका उपयोग हो सकता है, परन्तु हमारे डाक्टरों को हर हारी-बीमारी जानलेवा, हर दस्त हैजा और हर खांसी में टीबी नजर आती है और धड़ल्ले से इन खतरनाक औषधियों का खुले आम प्रयोग करते हैं, हालात ये हैं कि कुछ भी हो हर भारतीय को सिप्रोफ्लोक्सासिन हर वक्त याद रहती है, और रहे भी क्यों सस्ती है, हर केमिस्ट कि दूकान पर खुले आम बिकती है. फिर हम सोचते हैं कि जब सबके बच्चे खा रहे हैं और ज़िंदा हैं मोटे ताजे हैं तो मेरे बच्चे में ही क्या कमी है, और कहीं इस बीमारी से भगवान् को ही प्यारा हो गया तब! ना जी ना, ना होने से तो रावला बावला ही भला, लगाओ जी जो भी लगाओ पर मेरे बच्चे को बचाओ. परन्तु  सोचो:
. १३० करोड़ लोगों के देश में एक भी ओलम्पियन एथलीट नहीं, होगा कहाँ से दौड़ने लायक मांस-पेशिया और जोड़ तो आपने और आपके डाक्टर ने बचपन में ही बेकार कर दिए थे.
. कितने बच्चे आज मिर्गी से ग्रसित हैं और कितने मानसिक रोगी हैं, और कितने ही तो पैदायशी तौर ही मानसिक रोगी हैं, परन्तु वो तो हमारा या तुम्हारा भाग्य ही है या फिर पूर्व जन्मों के कर्मों का फल, डाक्टर का बेचारे का क्या दोष, इसमें बेचारी सरकार भी क्या ही कर सकती है. आपने ही तो सोचा थाना होने से तो रावला बावला ही भला”.

Who cares about Health and Wealth of Future Generations in India?
The common adverse effects of Fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin, ofloxacin, enrofloxacin, levofloxacin etc, FQ) include gastrointestinal disorders as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and abdominal cramps. Besides, skin rashes, allergies, and photosensitivity are also frequently seen. Some less common complications of FQ use are neutropenia, eosinophilia, and elevated liver enzymes (1-4%) but luckily all are reversible with proper post-therapeutic care (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3668199/). Several studies associated arthropathy in kids after use of FQ in growing age up to 18 years.
In a study in 2003, Chalumeau and co-workers reported (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12777590) from a prospective, multicenter, observational, cohort study that compared potential adverse events in 276 pediatric patients who received FQs and 249 matched controls who received an antibiotic agent other than FQ. The chances for potential adverse events in the FQ group were 3.7 times more than the non-FQ group. The most commonly affected systems were the gastrointestinal followed by musculoskeletal (arthralgias of large joints or myalgias but no tendinopathy), skin, and central nervous systems.
Even the most studies supporting the use of fluoroquinolones to cure septic cases in kids when no other alternative is left agree with the bad effects of fluoroquinolones in kids (http://www.jwatch.org/em200712210000003/2007/12/21/should-we-prescribe-fluoroquinolone-antibiotics).
FQs are approved by FDA and EU (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21949152https://ec.europa.eu/health//sites/health/files/files/paediatrics/2012-09_pediatric_report-annex1-2_en.pdfhttp://www.ema.europa.eu/ema/index.jsp?curl=pages/medicines/human/referrals/Ciprofloxacin_Bayer/human_referral_000024.jsp) for use in children for emergency use for the treatment of inhalation anthrax, complicated urinary tract infections, and pyelonephritis and cystic fibrosis caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. WHO permits FQs (http://www.who.int/maternal_child_adolescent/documents/9241546700/en/) for the treatment of life-threatening bacterial infections, such as resistant tuberculosis, dysentery, and cholera, with the caution that uses these nasty antibiotics if the benefits outweigh the risk of arthropathy. American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) suggest the use of FQs for treatment of multidrug-resistant infections for which there is no safe and effective alternative, and when parenteral therapy is not feasible and no other effective oral agent is available (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16951028).
 But who cares in India, pediatricians are prescribing these FQ drugs indiscriminately even giving any second thought and using it as the first line of treatment which otherwise should be the last option.
