Section 422 in Bihar Board's Miscellaneous Rules, 1958
422. Acceptance or rejection of supplies.
- The advance party is responsible for the actual acceptance of supplies, the passing in of which should be done in the presence of the civil official. The military authorities will then be responsible for the payment of the demand made by the civil official for the above accepted supplies. Rejections should only be made when the articles tendered are unfit for consumption owing to their being below the standard usually consumed by the persons or animals for whom they are intended. Supplies which have been accepted by the advance party will not be subject to further passing in the decision of the Officer Commanding the advance party being final. If the supplies become unfit for consumption owing to the late arrival of the unit or to causes outside the control of the supplier, a receipt for the supplies must be granted by the officer commanding the troops to the civil official concerned.
