(2) Every contract shall be affixed with the common seal of the Panchayat. (3) If the expenditure involves more than one thousand rupees in the case of execution of a work or procuring of goods or of rendering a service, the Contract therefor shall be in writing and the details in respect of the work that shall be executed, the particulars of the goods that shall be supplied, the standard of quality thereof, the details as to the manner in which and the period upto which the service shall be rendered, the date on which the work shall be completed, the last date for supply of the goods etc., as the case may be, shall be clearly stated therein. (4) The common seal of the Panchahyat shall be kept by the Secretary and it shall not be affixed in any contract or other document otherwise than in his presence. (5) No Contract entered into otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of this rule shall be binding on the Panchayat.

7. Exempting from some defects.

If the units cannot be ascertained precisely in the case of a contract for the execution of work at unit rate, it shall not be treated as having contravened the aforesaid rules only for the reason that the work had eventually exceeded the financial limit.

. After accepting tenders but before supplying goods or before rendering services, as the case may be, the Secretary shall, with the approval of the President in writing, get from the Contractor sufficient security in accordance with the terms of the contract for the full compliance of the terms and conditions of the contract to be executed. If this provision is not complied with and consequently the Panchayat sustains any loss, such loss shall be realised equally from the President and the Secretary.
