Central Civil Services (Leave Travel Concession) Rules, 1988 - Summary
Any location within India’s boundaries, whether on the mainland or abroad, is recognized as “a place in India.” The term “controlling officer” refers to an officer designated under Supplementary Rule 191.
“Disciplinary Authority” holds the same definition as in Rule 2 of the Central Civil Services (Identification, Control, and Appeal) Rules, 1965.
Understanding Central Civil Services Leave Travel Concession Rules
These rules apply to everyone:
- Individuals working for state governments but on deputation with the central government
- Those employed on a contract basis
- People returning to work after retirement
- Officials assigned to civil services and roles in the Union’s affairs, including civilian government workers in the Defense Services
Special Provisions of Leave Travel Concession
For officers hired on a contract basis, the entire length of the contract will be considered for leave travel concession if the initial contract lasts for one year and is then extended. If an officer has already enjoyed the concession for visiting any place in India during a block of 4 years before their retirement and is re-employed without a break, they will not be eligible for the concession until that block of four years concludes.
