The obvious solution is to set up a body independent from the ministry and senior to DGH. Something akin to the appellate tribunal that operates in telecom. Indeed a tribunal will act as a curb on DGH’s enthusiasm, because the director general views the ministry as almost an equal, often citing a September 2006 notification as a basis for his ‘powers’. This bureaucratic hair-splitting can continue for ever. A tribunal would, as it were, pour water over troubled oil.
