People’s complaint
The people complained to him that the personnel were deliberately delaying the disposal of applications for issuance of new RTC and incorporation of corrections in existing RTCs. Ravi and Somashekhar, the personnel at RTC section had not turned up to work even at 11 a.m.
‘Dereliction of duty’
