“Today’s mantra is e-governance and HAL would implement the policies of e-procurement and e-payment of the tenders,” he said after Governor H R Bharadwaj launched HAL’s Vigilance Awareness Week at the Ghatge Convention Centre here.
Nayak said HAL had adopted the Integrity Pact, which envisages an agreement between prospective vendor, bidder and the buyer for fair practices. HAL’s Chief Vigilance Officer Anurag Sahay said the vigilance set-up in HAL was focussed on preventive aspects and getting rid of bottlenecks and time delays.
Speaking on the occasion, Governor Bharadwaj hailed the efforts of HAL in nation building and said the defence PSU had lived up to expectations with unmatched credibility.
Stating that proper procedures would bring greater transparency, the Governor said that India has a great history of leaders with high integrity. “We are inching towards developed economy and you may find one or two spoiling the show through corrupt deeds. However, vigilance departments are playing a great role in tackling them,” he said.
