STAFF RULINGS – 64 Leave Rules
217. Is there any provision to apply for conversion of leave at any time or before the date of retirement as was in the earlier practice?
As per Rule 10 (1) of CCS (Leave) Rules 1972, the request for conversion of one kind of leave into another should be submitted within a period of 30 days after joining the duty on the expiry of the relevant spell of leave. The earlier practice of applying a conversion of leave at any time has been withdrawn.
218. An official is having EL at his credit. He desired to keep it for retirement benefits. He has no credit in HPL account. Whether he can be sanctioned LND even if EL is at credit?
The availability or otherwise of Earned leave has no bearing on sanction of LND. LND is nothing but advance credit of HPL that will be earned in the rest of his service. So it may be sanctioned provided that there is every prospect of his earning that amount of HPL in his left over service.
219. An employee is having just five years of service for his superannuation. He applied for EL which has been rejected. Is it correct?
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 carrier.
220. From whom medical certificate shall be obtained for the grant of leave on medical grounds?
Government servant (Gazetted or non-Gazetted) – Who is CGHS beneficiary and residing within the limits of CGHS at the time of illness should produce a medical certificate/fitness certificate from a CGHS doctor.
[Rule 19 (1)]
Who is not CGHS beneficiary and CGHS beneficiaries who proceed outside the Headquarter on duty, leave etc., should produce the certificate from the AMA, and in such cases, a non-Gazetted Government servant may produce a certificate from RMP, if there is no AMA available within a radius of 8 kms of his residence.
[Rule 19 (2)]
Where a non-Gazetted Government servant finds it difficult to obtain medical certificate / fitness certificate from CGHS / AMA, the leave sanctioning authority may consider granting of leave on the basis of the certificate from an RMP after taking into account the circumstances of the case.
In the case of hospitalization / indoor treatment permitted in a private hospital recognized under the CGHS/CS (MA) Rules, a Government servant (Gazetted or non-Gazetted) may produce MC / FC from the authorized doctor in such a hospital in case his hospitalization / indoor treatment is on account of the particular kind of disease (e.g. Heart, cancer, etc.,) for the treatment of which the concerned hospital has been recognized. This relaxation is not admissible in case of any day-to-day / outdoor treatment or indoor treatment in respect of any other disease. [Rule 19 (3)]
