C.L. No. 49/VIIIc-10 dated 18th May, 1959
The District Judges should arrange to provide the Chief Technical Examiners Cell
with such documents and information as may be necessary to perform its duties
efficiently. The visiting officers of the Cell should be afforded every assistance in their
work and all requests made by them for access to work, drawings, specifications,
contracts, measurement books or for any other pertinent documents or information,
should be complied forthwith. The instructions issued by the Chief Technical Examiner
for submission of necessary returns should be complied with. The Chief Technical
Examiner and the Technical Examiners will intimate their programme for inspections of
works at site to the District Judge concerned who should arrange to afford them all
necessary facilities. In case of surprise visits, the District Judge concerned will be
intimated just before the visit to the site.
G.L. No. 29/67-29 dated 15th November, 1928
District Judges are not authorized to call on the Divisional Engineer to inspect a
petty work under construction. They may call on him for opinion on matters such as the
suitability of the design or the reasonableness of the rates; but it must be on the clear
understanding that the taking of such advice does not relieve them of their own
responsibility.

[7] LEASE
(i) Allotment of land to Bar Association
C.L. No. 3 dated 27th August/2nd September, 1975
The State Government has decided that land in the civil court compounds can be
given to Bar Association for construction of buildings for purposes of Library or for
chambers for lawyers. The association will have to pay a nominal rent of Re. 1 per year
for the land. No premium will be charged. The lease will be granted by the Judicial
Department of the State Government. The requisite proposal will be sent to the
Government through the High Court. Such proposal for lease should be accompanied
with a site plan showing the existing court and other buildings as well as the site which is
proposed to be given to the Bar Association.
You may at first consider if some vacant site in the court compound can be spared
in the sense that it will not be used in future for the extension of the court buildings.
You may then contact the Bar Association and elicit if the Association is prepared
to make buildings either for its Library or for chambers for lawyers at its own cost. The
