2. The manual aims at describing in a concise and classified
form the powers and duties of village otficers in all departments
and it their relations with the public. The provisions on this
subject are now scattered in a number of Regulations, Rules
framed under them and Standing Orders of Government. The
tabular statement of authorities will indicate the sources for each
chapter. Matters not provided for in the existing rules have
been suitably dealt with and on these points, village officers will
be guided by this manual. .
8. The principles on which the manual haa been connpiled
ate as follow:—
(a) That it should deal primarily with the functions, rights
and duties of village officers. Part I, accordingly deals with these
toatters and Part II containa the Village ‘Accounts and other forms
referzed.to in the first part.
a (t) That where for the proper exercise of these functions
and discharge of their duties a knowledge of other laws and
tales is required, a brief reference has been made to them instead
of reproducing them verbatim in the text of this manual, except
in the case of a few important Regulations and Rules which are
quoted in full for facility of reference and guidance.
