OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject:- Central Civil Services
(Leave Travel Concession) Rules, 1988 - Fulfillment of procedural requirements-
Clarification reg.
The undersigned is directed to refer
to para 8 and 9 of the Guidelines enclosed in this Department's O.M. of even
number dated 18.2.2016 on the above noted subject and to say that the issues
have been revisited. It has been decided that the cases where a Government
servant travels on LTC upto the nearest airport/railway station/ bus terminal
by authorized mode of transport and undertakes rest of the journey to the
declared place of visit by private transport/ own arrangement (such as personal
vehicle or private taxi etc.), may be dealt with as follows:-
(a) In all such cases the
Government servant may be required to submit a declaration that he and the
members of the family in respect of whom the claim is submitted have indeed
travelled upto the declared place of visit.
(b) If a public transport is
available in a particular area, the Government servant will be reimbursed the
fare admissible for journey by otherwise entitled mode of public transport from
the nearest airport/railway station/bus terminal to the declared place of visit
by shortest direct route.
(c) In case, there is no public
transport available in a particular stretch of journey, the Government servant
may be reimbursed as per his entitlement for journey on transfer for a maximum
limit of 100 Kms covered by the private/personal transport based on a
self-certification from the Government servant. Beyond this, the expenditure
shall be borne by the Government servant.
(d) Furnishing of false
information will attract disciplinary action under the CCS(CCA) Rules, 1965.
Note: For the purpose of these
rules, the expression 'Public Transport" means all vehicles, including
trains and airplanes operated by the Tourism Development Corporations in the
Public Sector, State Transport Corporations and Transport services run by other
Government or local bodies.
