Case Law Details
Nowrangroy Agro Private Limited Vs Union of India (Calcutta High Court)
The officer holding the enquiry shall receive the documents after preliminary scrutiny thereof and should release the person producing such documents immediately thereafter without detaining him for recording any evidence. The officer shall make a full study of the documents so produced on 29th January, 2021 and shall communicate to the petitioner as to whether any further documents are required to be produced.
The petitioners shall be bound to produce such documents which may further be asked for, provided the same are in their possession on the date and time that may be specified by the Inquiry Officer. The Inquiry Officer shall not ask for personal presence of any of the officials of petitioner no.1 till the stage of production of documents continue.
After the Inquiry Officer is through with the documents, he will call the person or persons from the petitioner no.1 for recording of statement or evidence as the case may be.
This modification to the procedure is made owing to the present pandemic situation when a person or persons should not be called to be present before the Inquiry Officer at New Delhi within very short span of time and presence of more than one person at a time should also be avoided.
