Sources said government has received complaints that officials in departments are showing “callousness” in fulfilling their duties. “Many officials especially in Rural Development Department, Roads and Buildings, Schools Education and Health are coming to directorate offices from subordinate offices without proper permission. Their callousness is leading to poor working in their respective departments and grievances of people remain unaddressed,” an official of General Administration Department said. The official said that government has taken a serious note over “dereliction” of duties by employees. “Employees have been warned not to come to directorate offices without any reason. Officials have been directed that they should not come to headquarters until they get a call from seniors related to official work,” the official said. Tightening noose around employees, government in a recent order said, “Subordinate offices are not maintaining the official hierarchy protocol and are making direct correspondence with higher authorities bypassing their immediate offices as it takes away the prerequisite of the department.” The officials have been warned to refrain from such type of practices in future “falling which disciplinary action shall be taken against erring officials”. In another order, government said, “It has been observed that the officers/officials are leaving the stations (headquarters) without any knowledge and formal permission from the competent authority which is contrary to the provision of standing services conduct rules and norms. Any deviation in this behalf shall be treated dereliction of unauthorized absence from duty while action shall be initiated against the erring officials.” There are 4.50 lakh government employees in the new Union Territory.
