the wording of existing query does not reveal full facts sufficient enough to giving a matur eadvised on a seriou issued like disciplinary proceeding.

further the charged officer is entitled to the services of a serving/retired employee of central/state govt.

 

He is called Defence Asstt.

 

Whether you have a Def Asstt or going to face inquiry wihout experience and knowledge.

The photocopies of any document without compared with the original for its veracity is unreliable in law even for the purpose of departmental inquiry. As suggested by expert Mr. Sudhir Kumar, you are entitled to be assisted by a person of your choice who has administrative as well as procedural knowledge, better take the aid of such facility to defend.  Further, while posting queries, make sure that you give certain details elaborately so that a proper opinion can be rendered.

If you are a student posting the query for your academic interest or if the employee has not consulted a lawyer well versed with such matters, or if an the employee has not consulted expert that knows the processes of the establishment in and out, then advise the employee to do so.

In such matters reliance on experience and knowledge of an expert of such matters is advisable.
