Commission asks them to finish the train newest by November 30 or face disciplinary motion
The Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) has expressed “deep concern” over a prolonged delay in filing of property returns by authorities officials and has directed them to finish the train newest by November 30. Non-compliance might outcome in disciplinary motion.
“Timely filing of property returns by the officials of ministries, departments and organisations is one of the mandatory requirements under Conduct Rules. Property returns are also a good tool for CVOs [Chief Vigilance Officers] to detect the source of funding of the assets of the officials and to find out whether these have been acquired through legal means,” stated the CVC.
The Commission, in its order, stated non-filing of property returns constituted good and ample causes for instituting disciplinary motion in opposition to the delinquent officials.
“While examining the reports submitted by some of the CVOs, the Commission has observed that in most of the organisations, many of the officers are yet to file their Annual Immovable/Movable Property Returns (IPR/MPR) for the previous year i.e. 2019,” stated the order, including that in most organisations, the final date for filing of returns was January 31.
“Almost nine months have since lapsed and the organisations are yet to secure 100% compliance in this regard,” stated the Commission, expressing concern over the delay.
Accordingly, the CVC directed the officials that if they didn’t file the returns by November 30, applicable disciplinary motion might be initiated in opposition to them. All the CVOs and administrative authorities have been requested to make sure strict compliance to the instruction.
