1000 TIT BITS ON DISCIPLINE -102
371. Suspension ordered by appellate authority
An authority higher than the competent punishing authority can direct placing a government servant under suspension even when such authority happens to be the appellate authority, but, it will be more appropriate if the higher authority only suggests to the punishing authority of the desirability of taking disciplinary action leaving question of suspension to the competent authority.
(DG P&T No. SPB 11/3/1951 dt. 03.05.1961.
372. Government servant should intimate his arrest/detention to his superior officer promptly.
(MHAS OM No. 00/59/54-Ests (A) dt. 25.02.55)
373. Revoking suspension and transfer the concerned official
In case of officers under suspension, the investigation should be completed and a charge sheet filed in a court in case of prosecution or served on the officer in case of departmental proceedings within 3 months as a rule. If the investigation is likely to take more time, it should be considered whether the suspension should be revoked and the officer permitted to resume duty. If the presence of the officer is considered detrimental to collection of evidence or if he is likely to tamper with the evidence, he may be transferred on revocation of suspension.
