Ltd.) the Committee has recommended stoppage of payments to certain employees as they have taken advances from the Corporation. 9. Re. Flag - Z (Bihar State Construction Corporation), it is virtually an audit para on behalf of the Committee. The Committee has placed on record that it appears that this Corporation never maintains service books; information supplied to the Committee has been prepared at one sitting and not prepared in the ordinary course of business and, thus, at present, the Committee is not in a position to come to a conclusion whether the employees shown in the statements are regular employees or fake names of employees have been inserted. The Committee also records that about 19 employees after having been appointed in this Corporation were on deputation/adjusted against other organizations and, thus, those employees are not being considered for payment. When the Committee visited the office of the Corporation only two persons were present in the office. One employee was employed by the Corporation but then he was sent on deputation to another Corporation known as Bihar Hydro Electric Corporation. Only payments as have been recommended by the Committee, are to be disbursed in the context of this Corporation. 10. Let a copy of this order be supplied to the Counsel for the Central Bureau of Investigation, Comptroller and Auditor General of India/Accountant General, Bihar, and Assistant Registrar Companies, as prayed for. So far the State counsel is concerned, there is already a standing order of the Registrar General that a copy of the order on these matters be delivered to him.
