Can a subordinate issue a show cause notice under direction?

Can a show because notice be legally issued by an officer of the same rank as the recipient if directed by the disciplinary authority? Is it mandatory for the disciplinary authority to sign the notice themselves, and can the issuance of such a notice being legally challenged if signed by a subordinate of the disciplinary authority?

Sir, as show cause notice can be issued by an officer of the same rank if directed by the disciplinary authority. It is not mandatory for the authority to sign personally, but challenges may arise if delegation violates legal or procedural norms. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
