Date : 12.04.2018

Appointing Authority should obtain application well in advance from the GDS for payment of ex-gratia/severence amount etc. and sanction the dues before discharge : Rule 6.23 of Conduct & Engagement Rules,2011

It has been decided that it should be made mandatory for the Appointing Authority to intimate the GDS before the date of his discharge from employment in writing that he is required to apply for payment of ex-gratia gratuity/severance amount etc, due to him and also obtain an application at the appropriate time from him and process the case well in advance so that ex-gratia gratuity /severance amount etc, can be sanctioned by the time GDS actually discharge from employment.

Appointing Authorities should ,therefore,ensure that a proper watch is kept on all potential claim cases and action is intimated expeditiously at the appropriate time.
