Shri S.P.Malaviya, Hon’ble Cabinet Minister for Petroleum and Chemicals and Parliamentary Affairs.

  “I have rarely seen such an officer who is so highly result oriented, and with tremendous executive flair with qualities of excellent team work… He virtually assisted me in handling the dual responsibilities in the Ministry of Petroleum & Chemicals & Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs. His grasp of the subtleties and complexities of the Petroleum & Petrochemicals and Pharmaceuticals sectors within such a short period proved to be a great asset in the discharge of the responsibilities of the ministry at this crucial juncture. His written as well as oral briefings in the meetings were always specific, meaningful and articulate. The suggestions made by him were found to be balanced, practical and of long term benefit in terms of its impact on the national economy. A high degree of crisis management capability and acumen in meeting with the gulf situation was displayed by the officer… Exhibiting excellent overall coordination…The integrity of the officer is absolutely above board by his great dedication and rigid honesty he has improved the moral tone of the ministry as well … His coordination and personal rapport with Secretaries of both the departments as also with Chief Executives is really par excellence… an outstanding officer. As a matter of fact, my overall assessment of Shri Darbari, places him in “Super Outstanding Category” if there is one”. “
