A letter No 4(2)/2015 – D (Q SoC) from Government of India, Ministry of Defence dated January 7th 2015 ordered the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) and the Director General of Defence Estates (DGDE) to open blocked roads in Cantonment, which were closed without following the statutory procedure and has asked for a compliance report within 30 days from the date of that letter.

It is almost over 16 months and neither the COAS nor the DGDE has implemented the above Ministry’s order to open the closed roads in Secunderabad Cantonment.

If the above Order was not carried out by the Central Government Employee and that erred employee is an army personal then it amounts to disobedience and insubordination to his superior’s order in accordance with Section 40 & 41 of Indian Army Rules 1950. If it is a civil servant then it amounts to misconduct in accordance with the Rule 3 (1) laid down in the Central Civil Services (Conduct) Rules.

It is the earnest Endeavor of the present Central Government to ensure clean and efficient administration at all levels. The PM has already directed that wherever connivance, negligence, dereliction of duty of the Government employee is noticed, the Competent Authority shall take prompt action for such misconduct.

You being the Competent Authority, May I request you what prompt disciplinary action against the erred employee (s) was taken by your good office for their non-compliance with the Ministry of Defence letter dated 7th January 2015 and for their dilatory tactics or willfully causing delays in disposal of the work assigned to them.

In the event you are yet to take action against the erred employee(s) you are requested to act immediately and confirm your action by not later than May 30th 2016, failing which, you will be held liable as a competent authority, for not taking action and necessary legal proceedings will be taken up at the appropriate forum at your costs.

It should be clearly understood at the highest level of the government that over 2.0 million civilians in Secunderabad Cantonment are put into great inconvenience, mental agony, waste of time & money due to erring of some central government employee.

This is a notice served to you under the Section 80 of the Indian Civil Procedure Code.
