None on behalf of the respondent-department. ORDER:- Inspite of the order of this Commission dated 11.8.2008, Shri Tejvir Singh, IAS, Director Information and Public Relations, Punjab, Chandigarh has not appeared. However, a letter dated 22.8.2008 was delivered in the Commission which was addressed to Shri Jagdeep Singh Chowhan, complainant.

Subsequently Shri Hem Raj Kalia, Joint Director-cum-PIO alongwith Shri Nand Kishor, Senior Assistant appeared and submitted an affidavit wherein it has been stated that the information mentioned in the letter in tabular form supplied by Publicity Cell is true. A copy of this affidavit has been handed over to Shri Chowhan. In the said affidavit it has also been clarified that the documents for printing of the calendars numbering 5000 and later on 2,80,000 are not available in the record. It has further been clarified that no copy of the so-called act and unauthorized directions issued by Shri Chowhan is available in the record of the Public Relations Department, Punjab. 3. A copy of the document relating to issuance of order dated 12.1.1996 to M/S Nikhil Enterprises, SCO No. 215, Sector 36, Chandigarh for publication of 2,80,000 calendars has been produced before this Commission. A copy of note-sheet initiated by the Assistant and approved by the Publicity Supervisor; General Manager (Public Relations), Secretary Mandi Board and the Chairman, Mandi Board has also been produced. According to this note-sheet, the Chairman had desired that the publicity material should be got published in large scale and distributed to various Market Committees and it was approved by all the concerned officers as mentioned above. Shri Chowhan admitted that copies of the said letter and also of the note-sheet are already available with him. For the purpose of record, a photo-copy of the same has been kept on the Commissions file. It was further contended by Shri Nand Kishore, Senior Assistant of Publicity Cell that neither the documents relating to placing of the order for printing of 5000 calendars were received from the Mandi Board alongwith the draft charge-sheet nor it was available in the Public Relations Department, Punjab. He further stated that no such documents were produced before the Inquiry or submitted to the Punjab Public Service Commission. In view of this, nothing is left to pursue the matter further and the case stands disposed of as such. 4. Before parting with the case, I would like to place on record that Shri Tejvir Singh, IAS, Director, Information and Public Relations, Punjab, Chandigarh was asked to appear in person before the Commission and submit his affidavit but he failed to do so. Instead of him, Shri Kalia, PIO appeared and submitted the affidavit in question, which has been discussed in detail above. The senior functionaries of the Government of Punjab are expected to comply with the directions of the Commission and not to try to evade their appearance before the Commission. A copy of the order may go to the Chief Secretary to Government of Punjab, Chandigarh for issuing necessary directions to the concerned in this behalf. ( R. K. Gupta) August 25, 2008.
