Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Sept 24: The Finance Department said today that most of the officers have not taken any action despite clear instructions regarding remittance of unauthorized retention of various receipts/funds received from the Government and other agencies in different bank accounts by September 19.
“While some officers have taken necessary action in the matter, most of the officers have not taken any action despite clear directive issued through a Circular dated September 17,” a Finance Department order said.
It again reiterated to all Departments that all funds diverted unauthorizedly into bank accounts or revenue receipts retained in bank accounts without authority may be remitted immediately failing which necessary disciplinary action will be initiated against the defaulting officers.
The Finance Department will again review the matter on September 27.
