Ludhiana: Bailiffs reach DEO’s office to attach assets

Hindustan Times  

Bailiffs reached district education officer Jaswinder Kaur’s office on Monday to attach assets kept there after she failed to comply with a local court’s order to release interest to a retired driver for delay in receiving retirement benefits. The court of civil judge, junior division, Rajbir Kaur, had ordered that assets kept at the DEO’s office, including chairs, tables and air-conditioners be attached, as per a list submitted by the plaintiff Satinder Singh. Ultimately, on April 19, 2022, the court ordered that the assets kept in the DEO’s office be attached. In February, a local court had attached the district education officer’s salary for failure to pay 9% interest against delay in releasing retirement funds to a former block primary education officer, following which the finance department released the long-simmering bills.
