GENERAL ADMINISTRATION (SERVICES - C) DEPARTMENT
U.O. Note No.4590/Ser.C/57-1. dated 23rd
December, 1957
It
has been noticed that sometimes considerable time is being wasted by many
departments in arguing as to who should deal with a particular case. In the
time taken to put forward the arguments of each department, it might well have
been possible to finish action in that particular case. In order to check such
waste of time and energy, the Chief Secretary has desired that whenever any
difference of view as to which department should handle a case arises, it
should be informally put up to the Secretary of the Department (where the case
was first received) who will get into touch, with the other Secretary concerned
and take an agreed decision, if possible. Failing this, the case should under
rule 28 of the Business Rules, be submitted to Chief Secretary for a decision
at the earliest possible moment, and without letting the file travel from one
Department to another more than once.
