Subject:- Action against subletting
of General Pool Residential Accommodation & Garage and misuse of Garage by
the allottees.
It is to inform that substantially
large number of cases of subletting of General Pool Residential Accommodation
(GPRA)& Garages and misuse of Garages by the allottees have been found in
Central Government Residential colonies in Delhi and other places in the
country. The Directorate of Estates has been inspecting Government colonies and
recommending all administrative authorities/offices to take disciplinary action
against the allottees, who are found to be subletting residential accommodation
and garages.
2. It is also found that some of the
allottees of general pool residential accommodation misuse the allotted garage,
for purposes other than the purpose for which the garage has been provided to
them. This also gives rise to unhygienic atmosphere and may involve antisocial
elements in the Government colonies and thus, pose security threats.
3. In order to curb the menace of
subletting of general pool residential accommodation & Garage, the SR
317-B-20 and SR 317-B-21 of the Allotment of Government Residences(General Pool
in Delhi) Rules, 1963 were amended recently. As per these amendments, no
officer shall share the residence allotted to him or any of the out-houses,
garages and stables appurtenant thereto except with his family and immediate
relations. Such out-houses, garages, stables and servant quarters shall be used
only for bonafide purposes. If an officer sublets a residence allotted to him
or any portion thereof or any of the out-houses, garages or stable appurtenant
thereto, he/she may without prejudice to any other action that may be taken
against him/her, be charged such damages from the date of inspection by the
Directorate of Estates, as may be determined by the Central Government from
time to time.
4. By these amendments, the
provision of sharing of accommodation has been totally withdrawn and the
allottee shall reside with his family and immediate relations only. In case,
subletting is proved against an allottee, double the rate of damages are to be
imposed from the date of inspection apart from major penalty proceedings under
CCS(CCA) Rules 1965 for violation of CCS(Conduct) Rules, 1964 and breach of
rules and conditions of the Allotment of Government Residences(General Pool in
Delhi) Rules, 1963, which could lead to dismissal from service.
5. Therefore, it is felt that there
is a need to bring awareness on ill effects of subletting of GPRA & Garages
among the existing allottees of GPRA as well as among prospective allottees of
GPRA. The Ministries and Departments of Government of India are requested to
make wide circulation of this Circular among their employees and the employees
of their Attached and Subordinate offices on the repercussion of subletting of
GPRA & Garages and misuse of Garages, so that no allottee of GPRA shall
indulge in such illegal activities.
6. CPWD is also requested to give
wide publicity of this circular among the allottees in Government colonies in all
places through their respective Service Centres.
