On the expiry of the specified period the employee who took the security shall release it from the pledgee in his favour and pass it on to the Head of the Office to which the employee has been transferred, requesting him to return it to the pledger to get a fresh security bond executed by him and to have the security duly pledged in favour of the proper authority to the extent necessary.
