C.L. No. 5/Admn. (B) Vig. dated 23rd March, 1971
On all complaints against an officer or a member of the staff sent for enquiry and
report, the District Judges should send complete report. It should invariably be to the
point, thorough and objective. Whenever necessary the record should also be perused
while sending the report and corrupt and inefficient officers/ officials should not be
shielded. A clear opinion should always be expressed on the allegations made. If the
allegations made are in respect of a pending or a decided case the opinion should be
expressed in clear words but without being too critical as Judicial Indipendence of an
officer has not to be curbed in any way. What has to be seen is whether the order passed
is or is not reasonable and also whether it was passed after taking into consideration all
the facts and circumstances of the case.
