A period of one month and 29 days commencing from 1st January will expire in an ordinary year (in which February is a month of 28 days) on the last day of February because a period of 29 days cannot obviously mean to exceed a period of full calendar month and leave for two months from 1st January would end on the last day of February. The same would be the case if February were a month of 29 days or if the broken period were 28 days (in an ordinary year).

Note 1:-The term ‘Probationer’ does not cover an officer who holds substantively a permanent post in a cadre and is appointed ‘on probation’  (പ്രൊബേഷനില്‍ ഇരിക്കുന്ന ആള്‍) to another post.
ഒരു കേഡറിൽ ഗണ്യമായ സ്ഥിരം തസ്തിക വഹിക്കുകയും മറ്റൊരു തസ്തികയിലേക്ക് ‘പ്രൊബേഷനിൽ’ നിയമിക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുന്ന ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥനെ ‘പ്രൊബേഷണർ’ എന്ന പദം ഉൾക്കൊള്ളുന്നില്ല.
 
Note 2:-No person appointed substantively to a permanent post in a cadre is a probationer unless definite conditions of probation have been attached to his appointment such as the condition that he must remain on probation pending the passing of certain examinations. 
ചില നിയമനങ്ങളിൽ വിജയിക്കുന്നതിന് ശേഷിക്കുന്ന പ്രൊബേഷനിൽ തുടരേണ്ട നിബന്ധന പോലുള്ള നിയമനത്തിന് കൃത്യമായ വ്യവസ്ഥകൾ നൽകിയിട്ടില്ലെങ്കിൽ, ഒരു കേഡറിലെ സ്ഥിരം തസ്തികയിലേക്ക് സ്ഥിരമായ നിയമനം ലഭിച്ച ഒരു വ്യക്തിയും പ്രൊബേഷണറല്ല

നിയമങ്ങൾ‌ നിർ‌ദ്ദേശിക്കുന്നിടത്ത് ഒഴികെ ഒരു പ്രൊബേഷണറുടെ സ്റ്റാറ്റസ് ഒരു സാരമായ സ്റ്റാറ്റസിന്റെ ആട്രിബ്യൂട്ടുകൾ ഉള്ളതായി കണക്കാക്കണം.

Note 4.-The instructions in Notes 1 and 2 above are to be taken as complementary and not as mutually exclusive. Taken together, they contain the essence of the tests for determining when an officer should be regarded as a “Probationer” or as merely “on Probation”, irrespective of whether he is already a permanent officer or is merely an officer without a lien on any permanent post. While a probationer is one appointed in or against a post substantively vacant with definite conditions of probation, a person on probation is one appointed to a post (not necessarily vacant substantively) for determining his fitness for eventual substantive appointment to that post. 

മുകളിലുള്ള കുറിപ്പുകൾ 1, 2 എന്നിവയിലെ നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ പരസ്പരവിരുദ്ധമല്ല, പരസ്പര പൂരകമായിട്ടാണ് എടുക്കേണ്ടത്. ഒരുമിച്ച് നോക്കിയാൽ, ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥനെ “പ്രൊബേഷണറായി” അല്ലെങ്കിൽ “പ്രൊബേഷനിൽ മാത്രം” ആയി കണക്കാക്കേണ്ട സമയത്തെ നിർണ്ണയിക്കാനുള്ള പരിശോധനകളുടെ സാരാംശം അടങ്ങിയിരിക്കുന്നു, അവൻ ഇതിനകം ഒരു സ്ഥിരം ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥനാണോ അതോ ഒരു അവകാശവുമില്ലാത്ത ഒരു ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥനാണോ എന്നത് പരിഗണിക്കാതെ തന്നെ സ്ഥിരം പോസ്റ്റ്. ഒരു പ്രൊബേഷണർ‌ ഒരു പോസ്റ്റിൽ‌ അല്ലെങ്കിൽ‌ എതിരായി നിയുക്തനായ ഒരാളാണെങ്കിലും, പ്രൊബേഷന് ഒരു നിശ്ചിത വ്യവസ്ഥകളോടെ ഒഴിഞ്ഞുകിടക്കുന്നു, പ്രൊബേഷനിലുള്ള ഒരു വ്യക്തിയെ ഒരു തസ്തികയിലേക്ക് നിയോഗിക്കുന്നു (ആ പദവിയിലേക്കുള്ള കാര്യമായ നിയമനത്തിനുള്ള യോഗ്യത നിർണ്ണയിക്കാൻ ഒരു പോസ്റ്റിലേക്ക് (അവശ്യമായി ഒഴിഞ്ഞുകിടക്കേണ്ടതില്ല).
