The SCSC, formed to speed up the selection of full-time NTPC chief, has shortlisted applicants and called them for personal interaction slated for Monday.
"The SCSC (search-cum-selection committee), after scrutinising the applications...has shortlisted some applicants for personal interaction on December 21, 2015," Power Minister Piyush Goyal said in a reply to Rajya Sabha. The panel was set up by the government to shortlist suitable candidates for the post of Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of the state-owned National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC).
"Yes, Sir. government has decided that to speed up the process of selecting a successor, CMD, NTPC recourse has to be taken to the...SCSC mode rather than the PSEB process," Goyal said.
