Section 79(a) in University of Udaipur Officers (Conditions of Service) Rules, 1976

(a)Where the delinquent officer has pleaded not guilty to the charges, at the commencement of the enquiry, the Enquiring Authority shall ask the Presenting Officer appearing on behalf of the Disciplinary Authority to submit the list of witnesses and documents within 10 days, who shall also simultaneously send a copy to the delinquent officer. The Enquiring Authority on receipt of such list shall summon the relevant evidence as per the list and record the evidence giving opportunity to the Presenting Officer for Examination-in-Chief, and also to the delinquent officer or his assisting officer, whosoever may be present, for cross-examination. The Presenting Officer shall be entitled to re-examine the witness on any points on which they have been cross-examined, but not on any new matter, without the leave of the Enquiring Authority. After the close of the prosecution evidence the delinquent officer shall be called upon to submit the list of the witnesses and the documents within 10 days which he would like to produce in his defence. The Enquiring Authority after considering the relevance of the witnesses and the documents shall summon only the relevant witnesses and the documents and record the evidence thereof while giving opportunity of Examination-in-Chief and cross-examination/re- examination to the parties and then close the evidence. The Enquiring Authority shall consider the relevance of the witness and the documents called for by both the parties and in case of his refusal to summon any witnesses or documents, he shall record the reason in writing. The Enquiring Authority may also put such questions to the witnesses of the parties as it thinks fit in the interest of justice. An opportunity for hearing the arguments shall be given to the parties.
