Memo. No.
74/Ser-C/82-l, GA. (Ser-C) Dept., Dt. l-2-1982 | Joining evening colleges - Permission
to join - Further orders.
2. Experience
has shown that employees who are permitted to study in Evening Colleges have
been leaving office abruptly at 5-00 P.M. or even earlier and have been
proceeding on leave on the eve of examination or preparation, causing
dislocation to office work. It has, therefore, been decided that the following
conditions should be imposed while permitting Government Servants to Join
Evening Colleges:
(i) The permission does not ipso
facto confer any right on the member of the service who is so permitted for his
continued posting at a particular station for the duration of the course;
(ii) Pursuit of studies by the
member of the service should not be detrimental to the efficient discharge of
his official duties;
(iii) Grant of permission will not
entitle the member of the service to leave office by any particular time every
day. On occasions requiring his presence in office beyond office hours he
should ungrudgingly stay in office till the time required.
(iv) The Govt. will accept no
responsibility for his failure to complete the percentage of compulsory
attendance prescribed for the course, if any, on this account;
(v) The permission will not entitle
the member of the service to claim leave either for preparation or for the
duration of the examinations; leave, if any required for this purpose will be
sanctioned subject to the title and exigencies of work; and
(vi) The Government reserves the
right to withdraw the permission at any time without assigning any reasons.
3. The
Heads of Departments and the Departments of Secretariat are requested to take
action accordingly.
