Monetary rewards are often granted by law enforcement agencies and the government to individuals, including employees of various undertakings, who provide valuable information or assistance leading to the detection and prevention of serious crimes. However, monetary rewards are not restricted solely to non-gazetted Government servants; they can be admissible to gazetted officers as well, although rules regarding amounts and eligibility may differ. Furthermore, civilians are also eligible for such rewards.

– Statement 1 is correct: Employees of industrial undertakings, like any citizen, can be rewarded for assisting in crime detection, especially regarding crimes affecting their premises or industry.
– Statement 2 is incorrect: Monetary rewards for detecting crime are not admissible *only* to non-gazetted government servants. They can be given to gazetted officers and civilians as well, based on various scheme rules.

Various government departments and police forces have schemes to reward individuals for their contribution to maintaining law and order and preventing/detecting crime. The eligibility and amount of reward depend on the specific scheme and the significance of the assistance provided.
