DEPARTMENT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE REFORMS ORGANIZATION WILL BRING THE PENDENCY OF CASES TO THE NOTICE OF CHIEF MINISTER THROUGH THE CHIEF SECRETARY OF THE GOVERNMENT.

The monthly statement of cases pending over three months is required to be submitted on the first working day of the following month and the supervisory officers have to ensure correctness, completeness, accuracy and timely submission of this statement in the same manner as the weekly arrears statement. The hold up of the cases submitted by the Sections and awaiting final disposal need special attention and action by the Branch officers/Middle level officers. They should bring such cases to the notice of the higher authorities so that the pendency is cleared. It is intended to bring to the notice of the Chief Minister, cases/references which have not been finally disposed off within three months of the date on which the statement is to be submitted. This statement is to be prepared in the prescribed form by the law code manual para 13.2.4 of chapter Xlll and it has to be submitted on the first working day of each month to the administrative Secretary by the Branch officer or the Head of the Department, as the case may be for information of the Minister in Charge, with a copy to the Administrative Reforms Organization. The Administrative Reforms Organization will bring the statement to the notice of the Chief Minister through the Chief Secretary. All cases which have not been finally disposed off in the manner stated in para above and shown as pending. Cases which have been sent to the advisory departments such as personnel, Law, Finance, etc and are pending in advisory departments are also to be included in the statement, as the receipts remains undisposed. The registers of files sent to other departments, need be consulted for making entries in column number (8), and (9) of the statement. The finance department like Finance, personnel, Law etc are also required to maintain a register of files received from other departments and files are required to be entered in this register as soon as they are received. The weekly arrears report and monthly statement of cases pending over three months prepared and sent by the advisory departments should essentially include the files (Cases) of the departments pending with them for correct reconciliation of pendency.
