INSPECTION BY OTHER AUTHORITIES
(i) Inspection by Munsarims
C.L. NO. 26/2-C DATED 17TH MARCH, 1951 AND
C.L. NO. 145/VE-42 DATED 23RD NOVEMBER, 1971

It has been brought to the notice of the Court that irregularities have been
committed in a number of judgeship resulting, in some instances, in the defalcation of
government money. It appears that the prescribed rules are not strictly followed and the
assistants are able to disregard the rules because their work is not regularly inspected by
the Munsarims.
The Court considers it necessary that Munsarims should inspect in detail the work
of all clerks and more particularly of clerks dealing with accounts, preparation of bills
and payment orders at least once every six months.
District Judges are, therefore, requested to give necessary instructions to all
Munsarims in their judgeship. The inspection notes should be submitted to District
Judges and the Court expects them to see that inspections are made regularly and are
detailed and effective.
