-To prevent injury occurring to the older records by damp, white ants, etc. the almirahs and steel racks shall be thoroughly examined once in six months and all Sub-Registrars shall submit immediately thereafter a certificate to the Registrar and Inspector General of Registration to the effect that records in their charge have been examined. If any injury happens to any of the records, whether by white ants, fire, rain, water or otherwise, or if any of them be lost, an immediate report shall be made to the Registrar and Inspector General of Registration. The Registrar shall record at the same time his opinion as to whether anyone, and if so, who is to be blamed, and also the measures to be taken to repair the injury or loss so far as may be possible and send a report to the Inspector General of Registration.
