slips pending the sanction of the Government should be made through the administrative
department under the signature of the head of the office.

Subscriptions and refunds should be shown separately in appropriate
columns.

CLAIMS
C.L. No. 81/VIII-f-23- dated 17th January, 1958
District Judges should ask their Account Section and the assistants concerned to
follow strictly the instructions contained in the different sets of rules specially the
Financial Handbook and Treasury Manual and to be prompt and careful in making
payments with a view to avoid congestion of pre-audit bills of the Office of the
Accountant General. Whenever a request is made to the Court or Government for
investigation of claim under para 74 of the Financial Handbook, Volume V, the reasons
for delay in preferring the claim should be fully explained.

C.L. No. 20 dated 28th March, 1966
The following instructions should strictly be complied with in respect of personal
claims of government servants:-
1.
As required under para 74(a) of the Financial Handbook, Volume V, Part I,
claims of Rs. 5 or less which are less than a year old, having not been preferred
within six months of their becoming due, should be passed by the District Judges
themselves and thereafter sent with all the papers complete in all respects direct
to the Accountant General, U.P., Allahabad for investigation.
2.
As required under para 74(b) (1) of the Financial Handbook, Volume V, part I,
claims which are more than a year old but less than three years old should be
submitted by the District Judges direct to the Court for orders for their
investigation by the Accountant General, U.P., Allahabad. Such claims should not
be submitted direct to the Accountant General, U.P., Allahabad by the District
Judges. Under the aforesaid provision, order for investigation of the claim can
only be made by the Head of the Department.
3.
As required under para 74(b) (ii) and (iii) of the Financial Handbook, Volume V,
part I, claims which are more than three years old should also be sent to the Court
for onward submission to the Government for the orders for investigation by the
Accountant General, U.P., Allahabad. The practice of sending such claims direct
to the Government must be put a stop to.
4.
(a)
As required under the Court's circular letter No.8/VIII-f-23, dated January
17, 1958, causes of delay in preferring the claim should invariably be given along
with the claim itself.
(b)
As required under C.L. No. 30/VC-75, dated March 30, 1951, it is also
necessary that all such claims under para 74, Financial Handbook, Volume V,
Part I, should be looked into and taken up with as little delay as possible.
5.
In case of there being a claim constituted of several parts, it should be split up
into various parts according to the period covered, and then each part dealt with
suitably in accordance with the aforesaid rules. For example, if there is a claim,
part of which is less than a year old and part of which is more than a year old, but
less than three years old the District Judge should pass orders himself, about the
part which is less than a year old and send it direct to the Accountant General,
and that part of the claim which is more than a year old but less than three years
old, be submitted to the Court for orders for being investigation by the
Accountant General.
6.
Petty claims not exceeding Rs. 5/- should be avoided if they do not affect the
pension of the claimant under rule 74(b) (IV) of the Financial Handbook, Volume
v, part I.
7.
Munsarim of the District Judge and the Munsarim of Additional District Judges
not at headquarters shall check up once every three months with a view to see that
claims of this nature, which have accumulated in the meantime are put up before
the District Judge/Additional District Judges not at headquarters for proper
orders.
