The Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions has issued three new notifications Nos. 1541, 1542, 1543 Dtd. 20.06.2016. By virtue of these notifications procedural guidelines with regard to the Lokpal and Lokayuktas Act 2013 (LLA, 2013) have been provided. The guidelines include the functionaries and office bearers of NPOs for disclosure of information. All ‘Public Servants’ have to file declaration of assets and liabilities under Section 44 of LLA 2013 for 3 years as on (01.08.2014, 31.03.2015 & 31.03.2016). Under Section 45 of LLA 2013, if a Public Servant wilfully fails to declare assets and liabilities or provides misleading information then such assets shall, unless otherwise proved, be presumed to belong to the public servant and shall be presumed to be assets acquired by corrupt means.
