Memo.No:92580/C/1768/FR. I/76-1, Dated:31st Jan. 1977
Sub: Instructions
regarding encashment of leave by the Retiring / Deceased Government servants.
In
the G.O. Ms. No. 208, Finance and Planning (Fin. Wing) FR. I. Department dated
16th August 1975 orders have been issued permitting Government
servants to encash leave at their credit the date of superannuation subject to
a maximum of 120 days by the authority competent to sanction pension. To
liberalise the rules, further, Government have now decided to dispense with the
procedure of sanctioning the leave by the pension sanctioning authority with
immediate effect as this kind of procedure was not laid down in respect of the
decease Government servants.
Further,
the intention of the Government is to pay the leave salary admissible to a
retiring Government servant automatically without any procedure of such
sanction. Therefore, the Head of office may himself sanction leave, draw and
disburse the leave salary after obtaining formal application from the retiring
Government servant and after duly arriving at the leave title.
In
respect of self-drawing officers viz., All India officers and other Gazetted
Officers who are working in the twin cities the officers themselves may draw
the leave salary after obtaining the leave title from the Accountant General, Andhra
Pradesh Pay and Accounts Officers as the case may be and on the strength of the
formal sanction order.
The
above instructions may be followed scrupulously.
