My dear Friend



With reference to illegal gratification - acceptance or being caught in the process of accepting - and subsequent "suspension pending enquiry" by the company/department concerned; I would like to inform you that there has been a change in the way such "allegations" (till proved) are being dealt with.



Now, such accused employees are no longer put under suspension (in general). The reason is, during suspension they become eligible for subsistence allowance (which may reach upto two-thirds of salary); without doing any productive work.



As you are aware; CBI cases or other criminal cases. may continue till years together. So the accused employee keeps on getting substantial subsistence allowance. If by any chance, he is exonerated; he gets all the pending salaries, benefits, promotion etc. withot having to put in any work.



Therefore, now there is a tendency not to suspend (unless circumstances so warrant) till the time of final decision by Courts.



Also, I would like to inform you that it is not judicious to have a Departmental Enquiry or impose punishment by the Department. This is because many accused have taken the plea in the court that they have already been punished for this act and further punishment would amount to double punishment for the same misdeed.



I hope I am able to make you understand what I intend to convey without hurting your feelings on some action on the accused who are caught red-handed.



Warm regards.

Thanks.
But i was put to suspension for about one and half year on the basis of a charge memo the only violation of company rules against me that i left headquarters.
They do no follow the rule of subsistence allowance increase after 3 or 6 motnhs,they state they have discretion to decrease the allowance from 50 to 25 percent.
They dismissed me without considering the fact that no opportunity of cross examination of witnesses was allowed to me.

In effect the corrupt employees become more privileged than the whisle-blowers

Dear Udupa
I shall try to answer both your queries here.
Q1. In such cases, the Enquiry is proceeded with, in due course.
- The Chargesheet is "deemed" to have been delivered.
- The proceedings are conducted in-absentia of the Charge-sheeted-employee, or as is also known as "Ex-Parte".
Q2. In case of the sad demise of the charge-sheeted-employee, no further proceedings are held. In view of the Principle of Natural Justice, that a deceased employee can not DEFEND himself, the matter is set aside, at that stage itself. "Status Quo" is maintained.
I hope the above suffices, and gives clarity on the issues raised.
If any of my professional friends here, have any contrary opinion, or would like to furnish additional or supplementary information, they are welcome!!!
With warm regards to all.
