This's a very good query.     Law says sanction from the government is necessary.      Government means?      I think the appointing authority of the public servant is government.

If the offence is in relation to his duties only, sanction is necessary.

If a public servant administers a kick while doing his duties, sanction is not necessary because kicking is not his duty.     If a public servant forges a document, it's not purported to be his duty and no sanction is necessary.

I invite criticism against me.

I reiterate my query: How this sanction is to be obtained ? How can a citizen obtain such sanction ? For a state govt employee probably the chief secy is the sanctioning authority ( this however can be found out later).

Thanks but none of this touch upon the question as to how a citizen can obtain such sanction. As per the material you suggsted it is only the authorities/investigating agencies taking sanction from the other authorities.

"  ........  none of this touch upon    .... ".     Why?     Didn't my Reply touch on the question?

I replied, " You've to apply for Sanction.

Government means: Appointing Authority.     This's my opinion only.

But I have no hesitation to agree with you.     You think government means Chief Secretary of the State.

Forward an Application to him.   Simple.
