Pay and other claims due to and claimed on behalf of a deceased municipal employee may be paid without the production of the usual legal authority:
(i) to the extent of Rs.5,000/- (Rupees five thousand only) under the orders of the Municipal Commissioner or Chief Officer as the case may be, responsible for the payment after such enquiry into the right and title of the claimant as may be deemed sufficient and;
(ii) above Rs. 5,000/- (Rupees five thousand only) under the orders of the Municipal Council and on the execution of an indemnity bond with such surety or sureties, as it may require, if it is satisfied, after such enquiry as it may consider sufficient, about the right and title of the claimant and considers that undue delay and hardship would be caused by insisting on the production of authority like legal heir certificate. In case of dispute, legal action shall be taken.
