IT dept ‘suits up’
The Income Tax department has prescribed a dress code for the employees of its Delhi office. Sources say the move was triggered by a recent incident when a young officer turned up in a pair of faded jeans for an official function. A principal commissioner who attended the event took umbrage and released an order urging employees to wear “appropriate, formal, clean, modest and decent clothes”. Those who don’t follow the code would invite corrective action, the order said.
