Consequences for a government servant found guilty of sub-letting their allotted government accommodation
What are the consequences for a government servant found guilty of sub-letting their allotted government accommodation, in addition to the penalties under the allotment rules?
According to the Department of Personnel & Training Office Memorandum No. 11013/14/85-Estt (A) dated 06.03.1986, government servants found guilty of sub-letting residential accommodation are liable for departmental disciplinary action. Once the Directorate of Estates (or the relevant controlling authority) confirms a case of sub-letting and takes action under the Allotment Rules, they must intimate the details to the administrative authority concerned. The disciplinary authority may then initiate proceedings for the imposition of a suitable penalty on the grounds of "unbecoming conduct," as it constitutes a violation of Rule 3(1)(iii) of the CCS (Conduct) Rules, 1964 (or similar rules governing the employee). This departmental action is independent of and in addition to any penalties or evictions carried out under the Allotment Rules.
