APPENDIX VII  

RULES RELATING TO CASUAL LEAVE  

(Referred to in Rule 111 of Part I)  

🆀 Appendix VII deals with rules relating to :  (A) Heads of Dept  (B) Special pay  (C) Casual leave  (D) Agreement 🆀 Casual leave is......... leave.  (A) Recognized as (B) Not recognized as  (C) Ordinary (D) Extra ordinary  🆀 From the following which one is not an ordinary leave:  (A) Casual leave (B) Earned leave  (C) Commuted leave (D) Leave without allowance 🆀The period of leave treated as duty for all purposes:  (A) Casual leave  (B) Maternity leave  (C) Hospl. leave  (D) Spl. disability leave

1. Casual leave is not provided for in the rules as it is not recognised as leave.  Technically therefore an officer on casual leave is not treated as absent from   duty and his pay and allowances are not intermitted. The grant of such   leave need not be reported to the Audit Officer, nor is it necessary for the   officer to submit charge certificates when he proceeds on or returns from   casual leave.

 

അവധി എന്ന് അംഗീകരിക്കാത്തതിനാൽ നിയമങ്ങളിൽ കാഷ്വൽ അവധി നൽകിയിട്ടില്ല. സാങ്കേതികമായി അതിനാൽ കാഷ്വൽ അവധിയിലുള്ള ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥനെ ഡ്യൂട്ടിക്ക് ഹാജരാകാത്തതായി കണക്കാക്കില്ല, കൂടാതെ അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ ശമ്പളവും അലവൻസും തടസ്സപ്പെടുന്നില്ല. അത്തരം അവധി അനുവദിക്കുന്നത് ഓഡിറ്റ് ഓഫീസർക്ക് റിപ്പോർട്ട് ചെയ്യേണ്ടതില്ല, അല്ലെങ്കിൽ സാധാരണ അവധിയിൽ നിന്ന് മടങ്ങുകയോ മടങ്ങുകയോ ചെയ്യുമ്പോൾ ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥർ ചാർജ് സർട്ടിഫിക്കറ്റുകൾ സമർപ്പിക്കേണ്ട ആവശ്യമില്ല.

2. *(i) No officer may in any case be absent on casual leave for more than   twenty days in the course of one calendar year. But the members of   the teaching staff of educational institutions shall be eligible for   casual leave only for fifteen days in a calendar year.  

ഒരു കലണ്ടർ വർഷത്തിനിടയിൽ ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥനും ഇരുപത് ദിവസത്തിൽ കൂടുതൽ കാഷ്വൽ അവധിയിൽ ഹാജരാകരുത്. എന്നാൽ വിദ്യാഭ്യാസ സ്ഥാപനങ്ങളിലെ ടീച്ചിംഗ് സ്റ്റാഫിലെ അംഗങ്ങൾക്ക് ഒരു കലണ്ടർ വർഷത്തിൽ പതിനഞ്ച് ദിവസത്തേക്ക് മാത്രമേ കാഷ്വൽ അവധി ലഭിക്കാൻ അർഹതയുള്ളൂ.

*(ii) All officers including teaching staff of educational institutions may   be allowed to combine casual leave with Sundays and other authorised holidays provided that the resulting period of absence   from duty shall not exceed fifteen days at a stretch. The fact that a maximum has been fixed for the amount of casual leave which may  be taken within a year, does not mean that an officer is entitled to   take the full amount of casual leave as a matter of course.  

വിദ്യാഭ്യാസ സ്ഥാപനങ്ങളിലെ ടീച്ചിംഗ് സ്റ്റാഫ് ഉൾപ്പെടെയുള്ള എല്ലാ ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥർക്കും കാഷ്വൽ അവധി ഞായറാഴ്ചകളുമായും മറ്റ് അംഗീകൃത അവധിദിനങ്ങളുമായും സംയോജിപ്പിക്കാൻ അനുവദിക്കാം, തത്ഫലമായി ഡ്യൂട്ടിയിൽ നിന്ന് വിട്ടുനിൽക്കുന്ന കാലയളവ് പതിനഞ്ച് ദിവസത്തിൽ കൂടരുത്. ഒരു വർഷത്തിനുള്ളിൽ എടുത്തേക്കാവുന്ന കാഷ്വൽ അവധി തുകയ്ക്ക് പരമാവധി നിശ്ചയിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ട് എന്ന വസ്തുത, ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥന് മുഴുവൻ കാഷ്വൽ അവധി എടുക്കാൻ അർഹതയുണ്ടെന്ന് അർത്ഥമാക്കുന്നില്ല.

†Exception:-The maximum period of absence combining casual leave with Sundays and other authorised holidays will be twenty days at a stretch  for the State Government employees working in New Delhi.  

കാഷ്വൽ അവധി ഞായറാഴ്ചകളുമായും മറ്റ് അംഗീകൃത അവധിദിനങ്ങളുമായും സംയോജിപ്പിക്കാനുള്ള പരമാവധി കാലയളവ് ന്യൂഡൽഹിയിൽ ജോലി ചെയ്യുന്ന സംസ്ഥാന സർക്കാർ ജീവനക്കാർക്ക് ഇരുപത് ദിവസമായിരിക്കും.

(iii) All officers including those who have put in less than a year’s service  will be allowed casual leave at the rate of 20 days during a year without  taking into account the length of service put in by them subject to the discretion of the sanctioning authority 

അനുമതി നൽകുന്ന അതോറിറ്റിയുടെ വിവേചനാധികാരത്തിന് വിധേയമായി അവർ നൽകുന്ന സേവനത്തിന്റെ ദൈർഘ്യം കണക്കിലെടുക്കാതെ ഒരു സേവനത്തിൽ ഏർപ്പെട്ടിട്ടുള്ളവർ ഉൾപ്പെടെയുള്ള എല്ലാ ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥർക്കും ഒരു വർഷത്തിൽ 20 ദിവസത്തെ നിരക്കിൽ കാഷ്വൽ അവധി അനുവദിക്കും.:

†[G O(P) No. 51/1989/Fin., Dated 30/01/1989]

*Provided that the teaching staff of educational institutions may be granted casual leave for fifteen days only during a year.

വിദ്യാഭ്യാസ സ്ഥാപനങ്ങളിലെ അദ്ധ്യാപക ജീവനക്കാർക്ക് ഒരു വർഷത്തിൽ മാത്രം പതിനഞ്ച് ദിവസത്തേക്ക് കാഷ്വൽ അവധി നൽകാമെന്ന് വ്യവസ്ഥ ചെയ്യുന്നു.

† The amendment shall be deemed to have come into force with effect from 1st January 1970.

In cases in which the casual leave is intended to be spent outside the jurisdiction of the officer, the previous sanction of the competent authority should be obtained.

കാഷ്വൽ അവധി ആവശ്യമുള്ള ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥൻ അത്തരം അഭാവത്തിൽ ഓഫീസ് മേധാവിയുടെ ഉത്തരവ് എടുക്കണം. ഒരു ഓഫീസ് മേധാവിക്ക് കാഷ്വൽ അവധി ആവശ്യമായി വരുമ്പോൾ, അവധി എടുത്ത് വസ്തുത തന്റെ ഉടനടി ഉയർന്ന അധികാരിയെ അറിയിക്കും. ബന്ധപ്പെട്ട വകുപ്പിൽ സർക്കാരിന് കാഷ്വൽ അവധി എടുക്കാനുള്ള ഉദ്ദേശ്യം വകുപ്പ് മേധാവികൾ അറിയിക്കണം. കാഷ്വൽ അവധി ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥന്റെ അധികാരപരിധിക്ക് പുറത്ത് ചെലവഴിക്കാൻ ഉദ്ദേശിക്കുന്ന കേസുകളിൽ, യോഗ്യതയുള്ള അതോറിറ്റിയുടെ മുൻ അനുമതി നേടണം.

4. # A Casual Leave Register shall be maintained in every office in !Form No.19. When an Officer is transferred from one department/ office/section to another, the Controlling Officer of the former shall forward the extract of Casual Leave Register pertaining to the Officer, duly authenticated, to the latter. No Officer shall be granted further casual leave during the rest of the calendar year before getting the above extract.

ഫോം നമ്പർ 19 ലെ എല്ലാ ഓഫീസുകളിലും ഒരു കാഷ്വൽ ലീവ് രജിസ്റ്റർ സൂക്ഷിക്കും. ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥനെ ഒരു ഡിപ്പാർട്ട്മെൻറ് / ഓഫീസ് / സെക്ഷനിൽ നിന്ന് മറ്റൊന്നിലേക്ക് മാറ്റുമ്പോൾ, മുൻ കൺട്രോളിംഗ് ഓഫീസർ ഓഫീസറുമായി ബന്ധപ്പെട്ട കാഷ്വൽ ലീവ് രജിസ്റ്ററിന്റെ എക്‌സ്‌ട്രാക്റ്റ് യഥാസമയം പ്രാമാണീകരിച്ച, രണ്ടാമത്തേതിന് കൈമാറും. മേൽപ്പറഞ്ഞ എക്‌സ്‌ട്രാക്റ്റ് ലഭിക്കുന്നതിന് മുമ്പ് ബാക്കി കലണ്ടർ വർഷത്തിൽ ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥനും കൂടുതൽ കാഷ്വൽ അവധി നൽകില്ല

5. (i) An officer may be allowed causal leave for half a day at his request, provided that casual leave for half a day shall not be granted to the staff of the department of Museums and Zoos who work in shifts.

6. † Casual leave cannot ordinarily be taken in combination with any leave   recognised by the rules, with joining time or with vacation. Heads of  Departments may, however, sanction such combination in special cases,  provided there is no evasion of rules, for instance, when an officer obliged to be absent owing to the prevalence of infectious disease in his residence  

and placed on special casual leave, himself contracts the illness and has to  be granted regular leave in continuation.  

നിയമങ്ങൾ അംഗീകരിച്ച ഏതെങ്കിലും അവധിയുമായി ചേരുന്ന സമയത്തോ അവധിക്കാലത്തോടൊപ്പമോ സാധാരണ അവധി എടുക്കാൻ കഴിയില്ല. എന്നിരുന്നാലും, വകുപ്പുകളുടെ മേധാവികൾ പ്രത്യേക കേസുകളിൽ അത്തരം കോമ്പിനേഷനുകൾ അനുവദിച്ചേക്കാം, നിയമങ്ങളിൽ നിന്ന് ഒഴിഞ്ഞുമാറില്ലെങ്കിൽ, ഉദാഹരണത്തിന്, ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥൻ തന്റെ വസതിയിൽ പകർച്ചവ്യാധി വ്യാപിക്കുന്നതിനാൽ ഹാജരാകാൻ ബാധ്യസ്ഥനാണെങ്കിൽ  പ്രത്യേക കാഷ്വൽ അവധിയിൽ പ്രവേശിച്ച അവർ സ്വയം രോഗം പിടിപെടുകയും തുടർച്ചയായി അവധി നൽകുകയും വേണം.

7. Casual leave, not being recognised as leave, cannot be retrospectively  commuted into any other kind of leave, but when an officer who proceeded  on casual leave under the ordinary circumstances takes some other kind  of leave in continuation, such leave will be held to have commenced from  the date on which he proceeded on casual leave.  

കാഷ്വൽ ലീവ്, അവധി ആയി അംഗീകരിക്കപ്പെടാത്തതിനാൽ, മറ്റേതെങ്കിലും തരത്തിലുള്ള അവധിയിലേക്ക് മുൻ‌കൂട്ടി മാറ്റാൻ കഴിയില്ല, എന്നാൽ സാധാരണ സാഹചര്യങ്ങളിൽ കാഷ്വൽ അവധിയിൽ പ്രവേശിച്ച ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥൻ തുടർച്ചയായി മറ്റേതെങ്കിലും അവധി എടുക്കുമ്പോൾ, അത്തരം അവധി ആരംഭിക്കും കാഷ്വൽ അവധിയിൽ പ്രവേശിച്ച തീയതി മുതൽ.
