No
The chairman has a general responsibility to oversee the functioning of the board and to ensure that all matters properly to be considered by the board are in fact brought before it. The chairman should have extensive involvement with the chief executive in order to be appropriately familiar with what is happening in the company.
Whereas role of independent director is limited to Scrutinise the performance of management in meeting agreed goals and objectives and monitor the reporting of performance. He is not extensively involved in day to day functioning of the company.
