The registries were checked by the Inquiry Officer and 34 sub-registrars and joint sub- registrars along with 22 clerks and 176 patwaris of Gurugram, Rewari, Mahendergarh, Karnal, Kaithal, and Panipat districts were found guilty. Acting on the same orders, when the officers proceeded with the investigation, an explanation was taken from the accused. Thereafter, action was taken against the accused for providing an unsatisfactory reply and orders have been given today to initiate administrative action against such 34 officers along with 22 clerks and 176 patwaris of Gurugram, Rewari, Mahendergarh, Karnal, Kaithal, and Panipat districts under Rule-7.
