JAMMU, Mar 2: The administration of Union Territory of Ladakh has detected unauthorized information flow and communication of official documents without due approval and unwarranted access to the non-Government functionaries, which amounts to blatant violation of Employees Conduct Rules, 1971 and instructions issued from time to time.
This conduct of the officials has been viewed very seriously by the administration and accordingly fresh instructions have been issued for strict compliance by all the employees failing which departmental action will be taken and penalties imposed.
Rule 12 of the J&K Employees Conduct Rules, 1971 states: “No Government employee shall, except in accordance with any general or special order of the Government or in the performance in good faith of the duties assigned to him, communicate, directly or indirectly, any official document or any part thereof or information to any Government employee or any other person to whom he is not authorized to communicate such document or information”.
