He informed that during the hearing, Sh. Vijay Singh, Kanungo submitted that demarcation was delayed due to late delivery of the map by the operator of DGPS machine who was a private person hired by the complainant. On the other hand, the complainant, Sh. Vijay Pal submitted that he had followed up with the Kanungo regarding the demarcation report but didn't receive a positive response even after multiple reminders. Further, the Kanungo never informed him regarding the non-availability of the map from the operator, he tried to misguide him by telling him that his signature on the application were missing.

RTS Secretary stated that the Commission has carefully considered all the facts and found that substantial delay has been caused in the matter due to dereliction of duty on the part of Sh. Vijay Singh, Kanungo, Badli for keeping notified service pending for more than 6 months.
