Jammu & Kashmir High Court Directs Staff to Wear Prescribed Uniform

The Jammu & Kashmir High Court has issued a directive mandating all officers, officials, and staff members to adhere to the prescribed uniform while attending office and performing official duties.

Registrar General (Officiating) MK Sharma noted that several employees were reporting to work in casual attire, leading to indiscipline and affecting the smooth functioning of the High Court.

The circular, dated August 12, specifies that this dress code applies to both gazetted and non-gazetted employees, including personal staff attached to registry officers, e-courts, IT sections, orderlies, ushers, and drivers.

Non-compliance will be viewed seriously and may invite disciplinary action. Controlling officers have been directed to ensure strict implementation of the uniform rules.
