Sir,

 

Is he being charged under these offences in the performance of his official duties? If the answer is yes then he can be suspended .

 

Warm Regards

Hello Sir - Thanks for response.

No, he is not charged for his offical duty. Honorable court has ordered to register a crime against him due to suspect of having collusion with Police in another seriouse matter. There are Police Personnel who are also accused in the said crime and based upon your comment I think Police Porsonnel should be suspended.

I am confused about another govt. servant who is also accused of said crime and not Police personnel. I have seen couple of examples where accused of IPC 498a and OTH. are suspended from duty by concerned Department during course of trial and hence want to check if this is applicable for each criminal case?

 

Regards!

if a governement servant is arrested for committing some cognizable offence immediately the department in which he is working will keep him under suspension

Not fully disagreeing with above.

 

A govt servant is deemed suspended if he is in a custordy for 48+ hours.  CHarges may be any connected/not connected with dury, true/false and custody may be lega/illegal.

 

Based on partial facts (rather no facts) no more views can be expressed.

Many thanks Saravanan Sir/ Sudhir Sir. In brief if I understood rightly, for a suspension of a govt. servant, custody is neccessary. Just existance of criminal case is not sufficient ground for suspension.

Kind Regards!

Sorry you are very badly misinterpreting.  I never said what you wanted to hear.

 

48+ custody    -----  suspension is deemed even if not ordered by the deptt.  the deptt has no                                        choice.  The deptt can only order reinstatement and take him back on duty.

 

less than 48 custody or no custody or not even a crimina case    --- deptt can order                                                                                                                                     suspension

Respected Suthir Kumar Sir,

In your reply quoted above, you have indicated that " less than 48 Hrs custody or no custody or not even a criminal case- Dept. can order suspension." If so, kindly let me know under which rule/section, this suspension can be ordered?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Deepthisudan

If central Govt employee : read rule 10 of CCS(CC&A) Rules

 

If state Govt then there is bound to be paralell and identical rule.
