(iv) Para xxi — with a view to prevent the malpractices, reservation requests received from various quarters should be checked from time to time and in cases where, there is doubt about the genuineness of the request/letter, the position may be checked up by speaking to the persons concerned on phone for ensuring the genuineness of the requisition.
