Is there any remedy for Final reward available to the Informant if the Informant alleges injustice in the decision of the competent authority?

Ans. In case an informant alleges grave injustice in the decision of the competent authority for final reward due to either non-adherence to the Reward Scheme issued by the Board or due to factual incorrectness, he may file a review petition within one month of receipt of the decision, before the DGIT (Inv.).

In such petition, he has to clearly bring out the basis of the alleged grave injustice with specific reference to the provisions of the Reward Scheme, which have not been followed by the reward committee or instances of factual incorrectness. No cognisance will be taken of a review petition if it is not mentioned as to which provision of the Reward Scheme was not followed or instances of factual incorrectness.​
