Section 976(d) in Police Regulations, Bengal , 1943
(d)In case of doubt, a scrutiny of the issue forms (B. P. Form No. 186) for two years previous will show what articles of clothing an Assistant Sub-Inspector, a head constable or constable should have (except greatcoat) as every officer of these ranks may be presumed to have in his possession a belt, holdall and the requisite buttons, badges and "B.P." letters. In the case of greatcoats a consideration of the time of year and the post at which the defaulter is stationed (vide regulation 963), together with the evidence of his fellow constables and the officers at that post, will enable the Superintendent to decide whether he had or had not a greatcoat in his possession. 1
