  1. Only officers who are flexible, willing to crawl when asked to bend are much in demand. It seems there is shortage of such this kind of officers. Thus one officer holding 4 posts of CVO. In Govt those officers who taking stand are not required they are working against sidelined posts. Very unfortunate situation.
