OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject: Guidelines to curb practice of obtaining donations by the associations termed by either employees or their spouses etc. from the contractors, vendors, customers or other persons having commercial relationship / official dealings with the CPSE.
The undersigned is directed to state that the CVC has observed that there is a practice of obtaining donations by the associations/NGOs formed by either employees or their spouse etc. from the contractors, vendors, customers or other persons having commercial relationship / official dealing with the CPSE. Such practice of associations comprising of officials/spouses of employees of CPSEs taking donations, advertisement or sponsorships etc. from the contractors, customers, vendors or persons having commercial / business relationship with the Public Enterprises is unethical. The CVC has further observed that such practice is avoidable in the interest of transparency and fairness.
2. The Modal Conduct, Discipline & Appeal (CDA) Rules circulated by DPE vide OM No. BPE No. 2(121)/73-BPE (GM-i) dated 26-04-1974 already lays down certain acts construed as misconduct which includes taking any illegal gratification. It is, therefore, advised that the concerned Ministries / Departments having CPSEs under their administrative control may issue necessary instructions to curb such practice in their CPSEs and also instruct them to suitably amend their Conduct, Discipline & Appeals (CDA) Rules to incorporate a specific provision as under:
“Obtaining donations/advertisement/sponsorship etc. by the associations/NGOs formed by either employees or their spouse / family members etc. from the contractors, vendors, customers or other persons having commercial relationship / official dealings with the CPSE will be treated as misconduct.
