Leave Rules- FAQ

51.  What is the position in case if no casual leave on account for debiting to late attendance? If the leave sanctioning authority does not want to condone the delay, what action can be taken?

Ø  If an official who has no casual leave to his credit comes late without sufficient justification and the administrative authority is not prepared to condone the late coming, he may inform the official that he will be treated as on unauthorized absence for the day on which he came late and leave it to the official himself either to face unauthorized absence or to apply for earned leave or any kind of leave due and admissible for the entire day, the same may be sanctioned. This is the order of the Ministry of Home Affairs dt. 05.03.82. As such Question of Dies non will not arise in such cases.

52.  How many days an official can avail Earned leave at a stretch?

Ø  Since 12.10.1990, it has been increased to 180 days.

53.  Whether the Fitness certificate should be obtained from the same doctor who certified the illness?

Ø  Not necessary. The rules do not envisage that the fitness certificate should be given by the same doctor who gave the medical certificate. 

54.  If an official is directed for 'Second Medical Opinion' to D.M.O, whether he is entitled to claim TA/DA or not? It is not paid anywhere. Why?

Ø  As per Rules, any employee who has been asked to proceed to some other station for second medical opinion, he should be granted T.A. for the journey period and D.A for a maximum period of two days calculated as on tour. This facility is allowed only in cases of Second medical opinion for grant of original leave and not for extension of leave.

55.  An employee is having just five years of service for his superannuation. He applied for EL which has been rejected. Is it correct?

Ø  As per DOPT orders dt 29.09.86, Earned leave should not ordinarily be denied to any employee, especially in the last ten years of his career.

Govt tells all depts to improve officials’ competence

New Delhi July 09, 2012(PTI): Aimed at improving competence of government officials, the Centre has asked all its ministries, public sector units and departments to “urgently undertake” a detailed training programme for the purpose.
It will also carry out a thorough review after three years of training and skill development programme conducted by each of them as part of the initiative under the National training Policy (NTP).
“The overarching training framework enunciated in the National Training Policy, (NTP) 2012 is ‘Competency Framework’.“Implementation of this concept by ministries or departments would bring to light various competency gaps of employees that need to be bridged through a range of training interventions to enhance their performance,” the DoPT said in an office memorandum.
To meet the quantum of training requirement arising out of the adoption of competency framework, each ministry, department or Cadre Controlling Authority would have to urgently undertake the appointment of training manager and creation of training cell to institutionalise the training and development activities, it said.
The government has also suggested development of Annual Training Plan (ATP) by each ministry or department for all employees working under it, development of domain or sector specific trainers and training institutions as ‘Centre of Excellence’.
“A review of the impact of these training and development activities should be undertaken once in 3 to 5 years to ensure that there is a conscious periodic effort of critically evaluating them to meet the needs of the individual and aligning them with those of the organisation,” said Upma Srivastava, Joint Secretary (Training).
