CCI commissions IIM study for ways to address talent shortages
been grappling with significant shortage of people in the last few years. As many as 96 posts remained vacant in 2011-12 financial year (ending March 2012), slightly lower than the count of vacancies seen in the previous fiscal, according to CCI's latest annual report.
These include shortage of staff at the Director General (DG) office, investigative arm of the fair trade regulator.
In 2010-11, there were about 100 vacancies and one year down the line, the number came down to only 96.
Speaking at a public function recently, Chawla had said that autonomy and accountability are equally important for regulators, as it can't be anybody's case that regulators are a "mini-state" and they can get away with anything, because they are not accountable to anybody.
Some of the major orders passed by CCI in the recent past include those against cement companies on charges of cartelisation, as also those about players in the real estate and entertainment sectors. Besides, most of the major merger and acquisition deals also need to be cleared by CCI.
