But she has neither reported to duty before the Collector, Ananthapuramu nor applied for any kind of leave and thereby unathorizedly absented to duty form 12.5.2014 to 19.3.2017. Thus being responsible Government servant, she has shown gross negligence toward her legitimate duties and thereby violated Rule 3 of Andhra Pradesh Civil Services (Conduct) Rules, 1964.

But she has not reported to duty in Ananthapuramu District as per the orders of the CCLA Dt.8.5.2014. She has not applied for any leave either before the Collector, Ananthapuramu or before the CCLA.
ANDHRA PRADESH GAZETTE, March 14, 2018 3Subsequently, she has submitted joining report on 20.3.2017 before the CCLA & Spl.CS, A.P, Vijayawada, stating that she was posted as Tahsildar, Ananthapuramu District in CCLA Prcdgs.Dt.8.5.2014 and could not join in Ananthapuramu District as she had to attend to her mother-in-law, who is paralytic & cancer patient and needed Chemotherapy at Hyderabad. Therefore, inevitably she has applied for permission and went on E.O.L from 15.4.2014. She has further stated that, since her mother-in-law has recovered after treatment she wish to join duty. She has requested to issue posting orders preferably in Kurnool or Chittoor District.
Vide CCLAs Ref.No. Ser II (1)/XX1/375/2011-2, Dt.3.4.2017 the individual was informed that, no leave application was received either in CCLA Office or in Collectorate, Ananthapuramu for grant of E.O.L as stated by her and therefore directed to produce proof /evidence for applying E.O.L said to be filed by her on 15.5.2014 otherwise action will be initiated as per CCA Rules, 1991.
The individual in her reply Dt.10.4.2017 stated that, due to inevitable circumstances she was forced to go on leave from 12.5.2014. She has further stated that the proof/evidence of Leave application filed by her on 15.5.2014 could not be traced out as the same was misplaced in the course of shifting of her house from Panjaguta to Banjara Hills Road No.3. She has requested to treated the period of absence from 12.5.2014 to 19.3.2017 as E.O.L.

Further submitted that, no leave application has been received from the Individual for grant of E.O.L and no action was initiated against her, since she has not joined duty at Ananthapuramu.
Thus it is evident that Smt.Y.S.Bharathi, Tahsildar is habituated in absenting to duty. On repatriation from HMDA, Hyderabad, she has not joined duty as Tahsildar in Ananthapuramu District as per the orders issued by the CCLA & Spl.CS, Dt.8.5.2014.
