11.4. Nazirs and their pay scales.-

The satisfaction of a decree in quite a large number of cases depends upon the Nazirs who are entrusted with carrying out the different steps in the course of the execution of a decree. Attachment of properties effected through them. Delivery of immovable property in respect of which a decree for possession has been awarded in favour of a decree-holder is also made by the Nazirs.

It is, in our opinion, essential that the officials concerned with the execution of decrees should be men of experience and, by and large, should project an image of integrity and efficiency. It is with this end in view that we might think of revising the pay-scales of these officials. It is also essential that the work of these officials should be constantly supervised by a judicial officer.1
