Jha, who is presently working as Sub-Area Manager, W.C.L., Kamptee Sub-Area. It is contended that disciplinary proceedings are not initiated by the W.C.L. since W.C.L. has not yet received report of investigation conducted by the C.B.I. in respect of involvement of Shri Jha and others in the corrupt practices, etc. However, no sooner copy of the report regarding investigation conducted by the C.B.I. in respect of concerned Officers of W.C.L. is received, necessary action against the erring Officers according to law shall be taken.
