Dear Comrades,
From
today, I have decided to publish the study materials which I have compiled and
circulated to the comrades of Tamilnadu under the NCA Balu Peravai. We are
regularly conducting the classes since July 2020 and I can proud to say that
more than 100 young comrades are now thorough with the rules and capable of
drafting efficiently and beautifully and they have totally dedicated themselves
to the needy comrades in my circle. I am really proud of those youngsters. Even today, we are conducting the classes on Sundays every week and it is our aim
to develop at least another 100 comrades within one year. We are conducting question and answer session frequently and every week after the class there
will be an interaction. A special session is being conducted to improve the
drafting skill also. There should be no dearth of rule knowing comrades in this
circle in the future. I am dedicating the remaining part of my life to this
venture and I am confident that I could see the results in my life’s time. I am more optimistic, hopeful, and confident. This is my lifetime ambition and drives
to see more comrades possessing knowledge and militancy.
The materials
circulated to these comrades will be published in parts regularly from today
Hope you will
enjoy the materials
Regards and Respects,
Kayveeyes.
1. Conduct & Disciplinary Rules – An
introduction
PREAMBLE
It is said that the essence of Government service is the sense of discipline to which all Government employees are subjected and the privileges to which they are entitled to. Two sets of rules cover the dos and don’ts for Government employees. The action to be taken for failure to observe the dos & don’ts as also other omissions and commissions codified. These are the CCS (Conduct) Rules, 1964 and CCS (CCA) Rules, 1965.
CCS (Conduct) Rules
1964
The Conduct expected of Government servants is defined in CCS (Conduct) Rules 1964. Any conduct contrary to the provisions of this Rule is construed as Misconduct. Let us discuss the definition of Misconduct in General. What constitutes misconduct and what is not construed as Misconduct from judicial view in the Appendix.
CCS (CCA) Rules
1965
Every Government servant is expected to conduct himself as becoming of a Government servant as stipulated in Conduct Rules. Accordingly, any misconduct on his/her conduct is liable for penalty. The various procedures to be adopted before awarding punishment for misconduct are enumerated under CCS (CCA) Rules 1965. The lawmakers have embodied adequate protection to the workforce to ensure that innocent and honest errors in judgment are not penalized.
How and when a charge sheet could be issued, where a detailed enquiry is mandatory and what are the privileges available to charged official to prove his innocence are well enumerated in CCS (CCA) Rules 1965. But as is in vogue the officers tend to trespass the protection and inflict punishments that shake the conscience of the common man even trifle omissions and commissions to highlight their ego and supremacy. But the judicial system in India quite often comes to the rescue of affected workmen to establish what natural justice is and what amount to a violation of natural justice in departmental enquiry.
The rules provide for the charged official to take the help of a Defence Assistant. This facility is indeed a boon. This form the part of the reasonable opportunity enshrined in the constitution to a civil servant. A person in distress is seldom fit to defend himself in the long drawn process of inquiry. It may be noted that even a good surgeon does not do an operation on himself. A Defense Assistant is one who is thorough with departmental rules and regulations. He should possess a fair knowledge of the subtleties of examination and cross examination of witnesses as in criminal trials. A person who comes forward to help his colleagues in trouble gets the necessary training only through experience.
Need of the hour
The Service
Associations should mobilise more persons in this line and train them so that
they could help fellow employees in distress. The Branch/Divisional Secretaries
should play a vital role to safeguard the interest of members when perverse
officers tend to demoralize the workmen with their sadist actions/orders. For
this, it is necessary that at least the office bearers of the union are well
conversant with rules and procedures. These men should thereby invoke
confidence among his colleagues to combat the onslaught from the officers. The
role of Defence Assistant is to protect the interest of the charged officer and
to ensure fair play in domestic enquiry.
Let us begin our
session with the importance of Conduct Rules since most of the proceedings are
initiated under the Conduct Rules only.
Note: Comments are welcome - Kayveeyes
Eagerly waiting for 1st session on Conduct Rules.
