Bengal Presidency - Subsection

Section 695(21) in Police Regulations, Bengal , 1943

(21)At headquarters, the Superintendent shall either himself inspect the guard or cause it to be inspected by his Assistant or other officers at short intervals. The Armed Inspector shall visit the sadar treasury guard at least once in every 24 hours, and he shall visit it between the hours of midnight and 3 a.m., once a week. His visits must be at uncertain hours and shall occasionally be so timed that he will be present at the time of the relief of sentries. Where there is a Sergeant or a Sub-Inspector in the District Armed Police, this officer may be occasionally deputed instead of the Inspector, but in no case shall the Inspectors visits be less than three by day and one by night in the week. In addition an officer shall be told off daily to visit all guards (see regulation 696), similarly, at Sub-divisional headquarters, the Circle Inspector, and in his absence, the Court officer, shall depute an officer once by day and once by night to visit the treasury guard. He shall also himself visit the guard at least twice by day and once by night each week when at headquarters. In subdivisions where a Sub-divisional Police Officer is posted, that officer shall visit the sub-treasury guard at least twice a week at night. It is the duty of superior officers to see that all officers visiting rounds are thoroughly acquainted with their duties and the points to which they should attend. Round officers shall invariably turn out the guard and not merely content themselves with visiting the sentries at night. They shall test the ability of the sentry to call out the guard from his post.
