Subject: Action to be taken in case of trap/arrest of an official – reg.

Madam/Sir,
It has been observed that after trap/arrest of an official by Central Bureau of Investigation or Anti-Corruption Branch of State Police, complete and up to date information and relevant documents are not forwarded by field offices to Head Office. This results in delay in taking further necessary action regarding suspension/review, prosecution sanction, Regular Departmental Action, etc.
2. Therefore, a list of action alongwith timeline has been drawn and is circulated herewith as Annexure for strict adherence. All possible efforts have to be made by the field offices to obtain the relevant details/documents from the concerned authority i.e. CBI, ACB, Court, etc. at the earliest so that the same are sent to Head Office within the timeline  prescribed in the Annexure by official email ID as well as by speed Post.
Your faithfully,
(Uma Mandal)
Addl. Central PF Commissioner (HRM)
