This is how a particular boss runs a dept where procurement of information technology related service/goods/items/material without enlisting suppliers in a transparent way by website advertisement or newspaper advertisement but by calling limited tender among arbitrary selected vendors.In a South Asian Commonwealth country's full government company in a particular state of India(specifically in India where there are vigilance guidelines/rules overlooking agencies like central vigilance commission /state vigilance commission for each constituent state) generating thermal power I think this is corrupt practice.So my question is is this activity corrupt or not corrupt specially when in a public notice of the company published in its website signed by the Company director it reads that material and services will be procured through e tender and interested bidders are directed to buy Digital Signature Certificate for participating in e-tendering. However in a power plant of this company without doing any e-tender this procurement is taking place through this corrupted limited tendering process.My question is the existing practice is okay or not that is it corrupt or not because all South Asian countries belonging to the Commonwealth have some vigilance rules regulations.The way he is conducting business is corruption or not .This is my question.I want that some eminent jurist lawyer or law scholar or knowledgeable participant in this forum clear my doubt.I not asking how to frame charges i am just asking if the standard procedure has been compromised corrupted and sabotaged or not that the process does seem to point to larger organised theft or corruption racket within the organisation or not not asking for specific charges i just want that you shed light on the fact or my doubt if in a government organisation that is a company generating thermal power in a Commonwealth country of South Asia if this is happening is this corrupt practice and if this practice points to iceberg of corruption where a ring consisting of high officials constitute organised racket to systematically loot money through cut money because the tendering process becomes noncompetitive nontransparent and invalid because all commonwealth countries have similar rules in this area.I am not asking for activism but soliciting for your knowledge to discern if this is widespread corruption or corrupt practice or it is my delusional belief. I am questioning the legality cum validity and legtimacy of any and all procurement through the process of "limited tendering" described above
