New Delhi: The appointment process for the Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC), the country’s largest upstream oil and gas company, is still in limbo. As per regulations, the vacancy announcement should have been published in December itself, considering the current CMD’s tenure ends in December this year. However, even after two months, there’s no sign of the advertisement. The big question is—why the delay?
For a position as crucial as ONGC’s CMD, such an unusual delay has raised eyebrows. Is it just an administrative hold-up, or is there a bigger game at play? Is someone being strategically positioned for the role?.
But why is this crucial appointment stuck in red tape? Is this merely a procedural delay, or is there a larger power play behind the scenes? With speculation mounting, all eyes are now on how soon the advertisement is released—and, more importantly, who will be the next CMD of ONGC!
