Senior citizens welfare & maintenance act

(Querist) 01 October 2023 This query is : Resolved 
Whether a govt servant who is respondent in the complaint filed by his senior citizen mother, will face any departmental action as per Kerala Service Rules ?
Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether a government servant in Kerala can face departmental action under the Kerala Service Rules for failing to maintain their senior citizen mother. While departments generally don't intervene in personal matters unrelated to employment, non-maintenance of family can be considered misconduct. The mother can pursue relief through the Senior Citizens Welfare Tribunal, and departmental action may be considered if the complaint is proven and related to service rules.

An enquiry will be made against such an employee and the contents of the complaint will be proved then necessary action will be taken as per the inquiry report.

The complaint may not be entertained by the department against the employee becasue it is not related to his employment
However his mother can approach senior citizens welfare tribunal for relief against him.

Generally department / employer is not concerned with personal matters of the employee for institution of departmental inquiry.
What is the relief sought by complainant (mother of employee) has to be purused before forming proper opinion and oblige.
