To respond to a warning letter, standing orders must be studied thoroughly. Any vague orders can be challenged. It is better to answer point-wise. In the given scenario, is there any standing order that anyone can collect the keys? Or only authorized person can do so? What was the escalation report as envisaged in standing orders? Please go through the standing orders to safeguard your interest.
