A working employee of FCI is suspended by his Area Manager by using powers conferred U/R 66(1)(a) by FCI(Staff regulation),1971 on the basis of a letter (influenced by some misrepresentation also) written by a Manager,who was as a supervisor. The suspension order was not self contained speaking and reasoned(violation of FCI Cirular 94/2011). No inquiry for the truth of letter was made by Area Manager before suspension of employee. The Employee has submitted his representation to CMD, FCI being the competent authority for making decisions against Category-officer, under intimation to GM(R) and ED Zone(NZ) requesting High level inquiry as the order was devoid of merit and no complaint/SCN/Memorandum was issued to the employee. The subsequent representations have already been sent by employee to higher authorities but no inquiry has initiated. However as per previous record the employee was counted in good workers of the corporation.
Further No chargesheet has been served upon the employee even after completion of 4 months(violation of FCI Circular No.104/2015). but the suspension is still continued. the delay in serving of chargesheet is also violating FCI Circular No. 105/2015.
