demanding and accepting `.10,000/- as a bribe for issuance of mulba

Whereas, the matter referred to General Administration Department

under :—

‘‘Returned. On consideration of the matter in the General

Administration Department, it has been observed that Jyoti

Devi, Corporator has, in active connivance with her husband

Sham Lal and after entering into a criminal conspiracy with him,

demanded and accepted illegal gratification from the Complainant,

who being a Contractor had executed works in the ward of the

Corporator. This act on part of the Corporator, who being a

public Servant, prima facie tantamounts to a grave criminal

offense attracting provisions of the Prevention of Corruption

Act and IPC. The accused lady Corporator, has abused her

official position, which entails action against her in terms of

Section 34 of the Jammu and Kashmir Municipal Corporation

Act, 2000.

On further consideration, the Competent Authority has directed

that the Housing and Urban Development Department be

advised to proceed against the delinquent Ms. Jyoti Devi,

Corporator Ward No. 3, in terms of Section 34 of the Jammu

and Kashmir Municipal Corporation Act, 2000 and furnish the

Action Taken Report (ATR) to General Administration

Department for consideration of the Government.

Consequently, the decision of the Competent Authority is

conveyed to the Housing and Urban Development Department

Whereas, vide Government Order No. 56-JK(HUDD) of 2023

Dated 12-04-2023, an enquiry was ordered to be initiated by the

Department under Section 34 of the Jammu and Kashmir Municipal

Corporation Act, 2000, wherein Mr. Anil Kaul, JKAS, Secretary

Housing and Urban Development was appointed as Inquiry Officer in

the case to conduct an enquiry into the matter of alleged misconduct

of Smt. Jyoti Devi, Councilor, for abusing official position ; and

Whereas, Smt. Jyoti Devi, was afforded an opportunity to present

her case/defence by the Inquiry Officer and she appeared before the

Inquiry Officer on 26th of May 2023 and submitted a written statement

of defense which inter alia referred to the provisions of Section 8 of

the Municipal Corporation Act, 2000 asserting therein that no action can

be taken against her ; and

Whereas, the written statement was taken on record and

considered however, it was found that the said section has no

applicability in view of the offence committed by the Corporator and

as such her assertion is not legally tenable ; and

Whereas, the Inquiry Officer vide letter PS/Secy/HUDD/Jmu/36

dated 06-06-2023 recommended as under :—

‘‘The assertion of the Corporator in her supplementary

statement that she was not present on the scene of arrest cannot

obviate the trail of events in the instant case which eventually

has led to the lying of sucessful trap of arrest by the Anti

Corruption Bureau. The act of demanding/accepting illegal

gratification has unfolded at the scene of incidence of arrest.

As per records available and statement of reply, the conduct of

the Corporator does not absolve her from the alleged

connivance involved in the offense keeping in view that ACB

has registered FIR No. 10/2022 under Section 7 of PC Act, 1988

and Section 120 IPC against Smt. Jyoti Devi, and her husband.

Moreover, the Corporator has not produced any evidence to

substanttiate her non involvement in the said offense.

The J&K Official Gazette, 15th Sept., 2023/24th Bhad., 1945. [No. 24-f

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

As such, it transpires that Smt. Jyoti Devi, Corporator has prima

facie abused her official position and is liable for action under

relevant part of Section 34 (1) (b) of the Jammu and Kashmir

Municipal Corporation Act, 2000 for having flagrantly abused

her position as a Corporator’’.

Whereas, in contemplation to proceed further under Section 34 (1) (b)

of the Jammu and Kashmir Municipal Act, a notice for affording a final

opportunity of being heard was served upon Smt. Jyoti Devi, Councilor,

H. No. 219/3, Vasant Vihar, Ward No. 53 vide Letter No. HUD/60/

2022-01(C.No. 234617) dated 01-08-2023 as mandated under Section

34 of the Act ; and

Whereas, Smt. Jyoti Devi, submitted her reply on 06-08-2023

wherein she denied the facts and further resisted from the applicability

of provisions of section 8 and further Section 34 of the Jammu

and Kashmir Municipal Corporation Act, 2000 asserting therein that

no action can be taken against her under the provisions of said

sections ; and

Whereas, the applicability of Section 8 of the Jammu and Kashmir

Municipal Corporation Act, 2000 is not attracted in the instant case and

the conduct of the councilor squarely falls within the ambit of Section

34(1) (b) which provides as under :—

‘‘Removal or resignation by Councilors.—(1) The Government

may, by notification, remove any Councilor, if in its opinion—

(b) he has flagrantly abused his position as Councilor or

has through negligence or misconduct been responsible for the

loss or misapplication of any money or property of

the Corporation’’ ; and

Whereas, on perusal of the factual details as furnished by Anti

Corruption Bureau viz-a-viz circumstantial evidences collected on the

arrest and the directions of the Competent Authority, the instant case

is covered under the provisions of Section 34 of the Jammu and Kashmir
