Does an officer need to disclose a family relationship (such as a sibling's employment in an NGO) when seeking permission?

Conduct RulesCCS-CONDUCTRule 38

Yes. Full, voluntary disclosure of relevant personal relationships is essential for the competent authority to make an informed decision. Concealing such relationships while seeking permission can itself be a conduct violation if discovered later.
