REASI: Deputy Commissioner Reasi Nidhi Malik has taken strong note of negligence and dereliction of duty on the part of Naib Tehsildar JR Chakalhawalan, Tehsil Thakrakote.
âIt has come to the notice of this office that, despite widespread heavy rains, thunderstorms, landslides and flash floods causing extensive damage to public and private infrastructure in the district, the said officer was not present at his station and failed to promptly report the damage in his jurisdiction. The duty of the officer was to actively carry out damage assessment for facilitating relief disbursement, but his absence led to delays in the process,â the DC noted.
Taking a serious view of the lapse, the officer has been served a show-cause notice directing him to explain why disciplinary action should not be initiated against him. He has been given two daysâ time to respond, failing which action as warranted under rules shall be taken. Meanwhile, his salary has been withheld until further orders.
The Deputy Commissioner emphasized that during adverse weather conditions such as heavy rains, landslides, and thunderstorms, the physical presence of field officers and immediate reporting are mandatory to ensure timely response and relief measures. She reiterated that dereliction of duty in times of crisis will not be tolerated and that officers must remain vigilant and responsive to safeguard the interests of the public.
