RAJOURI: Deputy Commissioner Rajouri Abhishek Sharma conducted a surprise inspection, here at the ARTO (Assistant Regional Transport Officer) office. During the inspection, some individuals were found inside official rooms, raising serious questions about unauthorized access to sensitive areas. Additionally, a nearby computer shop was sealed after documents belonging to the ARTO office were recovered within its premises.

Acting swiftly, the Deputy Commissioner ordered instant initiation of disciplinary proceedings and detailed inquiry into the matter. The inquiry aims to identify lapses, if any, on the part of the office staff and the involvement of external parties in handling official documents.

“The administration is committed to ensuring that public offices maintain the highest standards of integrity and accountability. Any violation of these principles will not be tolerated, and strict action will be taken against those found guilty,” said the DC.

The Deputy Commissioner also emphasized the need for stricter protocols to prevent unauthorized access to government offices and documents in the future. He said details regarding the inquiry and any subsequent actions will be shared with the public once the investigation is complete.
