Presence of unauthorised agents handling official documents indicates serious procedural violations and possible corruption. The officials concerned were found to be negligent in discharging their duties by allowing agents to move freely in the office, he said.
A detailed report would be submitted to the government recommending necessary disciplinary and legal action against the concerned officials and others involved, the DSP added.
