Order Under Section 144 Cr.P.C.

Chandigarh, 7th April, 2016: It has been made to appear to Ajit Balaji Joshi, IAS, District Magistrate, Chandigarh that domestic servants and other domestic helpers often have a large part to play in crime and that they are sometimes themselves the perpetrators or active conspirators in committing of offences.  If, antecedents of domestic servants are not verified, in the event of any crime taking place involving them, there is every apprehension of grave danger to human life and safety and injury to public property besides breech of peace and disturbance of public tranquility.

It has been noticed that many residents do not cooperate with the police, and are reluctant to give details necessary for verification. Under these circumstances, Sh. Ajit Balaji Joshi, IAS, District Magistrate, Chandigarh, am of the opinion that some check should be put on residents/landlords/tenants/commercial establishments so that anti-social elements in the guise of ordinary domestic servants/helpers/maid servants may not pose a threat to their own employers and to other citizens and that immediate action is necessary for prevention of the same.

Therefore, Sh. Ajit Balaji Joshi, IAS, District Magistrate, Chandigarh in exercise of the powers vested with him under section 144 Cr.P.C. do hereby order as on emergency measure that the residents of Union Territory, Chandigarh, including land-lords, tenants and those running commercial establishments shall not employ any domestic servant, helper, part time maid servant, unless his/her particulars are furnished to the Station House Officer (S.H.O.) concerned in writing in the form designed by the local police.  Any breach of this order would invite action under section 188 of the Indian Penal Code.


In view of the emergent nature of the order, it is being issued ex-parte and is addressed to the public in general. This order shall come into force with effect from zero hours on 08.04.2016 and shall be effective for a period of sixty days up to and including 06.06.2016.
