***
In the reference 1st read above, Government have introduced the
slab rates of compulsory premium towards Andhra Pradesh Government Life
Insurance Scheme for the State Government
Employees.
2. In the reference 2nd read above, Government have issued orders
for enhancement of compulsory A.P.G.L.I premium slab rates as per the Revised
Pay Scales, 2010.
3. In the Government order 3rd read above, the Government have
constituted a Committee to study the possibilities of simplification of
procedures and efficient functioning of the Department to render quick service
to the Policy holders.
4. In the reference 4th read above, the Committee has submitted a
report to the Government, wherein it was recommended that “ under the present
system, deduction from monthly salary starts from the
date of second year. Government may consider covering the
employees under the A.P. Government Life Insurance Scheme from the date of payment of his / her first monthly salary”.
5. In the reference 5th read above, the Director of Insurance has
stated that as per the APGLI Fund Rule, an employee who is appointed under
10(a)(i)(1) of the General Rules for the State and Subordinate Services is
eligible to get insured with Directorate of Insurance on completion of one year
service. This condition might have been relevant in the olden days where there
were temporary appointments. Presently, almost all the appointments are made on
regular basis mainly through
A.P.P.S.C./D.S.C./Police recruitment board, Hence, the existing
condition of one year service for recovery of A.P.G.L.I. premium may not be
applicable. Also, the condition of completion of one year service is denying
the newly recruited employees from getting the benefit of risk coverage.
6. Further, the Director of Insurance has requested the Government
to kindly issue necessary orders for effecting the A.P.G.L.I. premium recovery
in the first month salary of the employee soon after he/she joins the
Government service without the condition of (1) year service completion.
7. Government after careful examination of the recommendations of
the Committee and as per the request of the Director of Insurance, Government
hereby permitted to recover the compulsory premium amount which was prescribed
in the Government orders from time to time to be deducted from
the date of payment of first month salary soon after he /she joins the
Government service on regular basis without waiting for completion of one year
service.
8. The Drawing and Disbursing Officers concerned are therefore
requested to recover the compulsory premium of A.P.G.L.I. amount which was
prescribed in the Government orders from time to time to deduct the compulsory
premium from the date of payment of first salary soon after he/she joins the
Government service without waiting for completion of one year service, who are
in the insurable age of 21-53 years.
9. The Drawing and Disbursing officer is
solely responsible for recovery of 1st premium and submission of prescribed
form immediately to concerned District Insurance Officer after recovery of 1st premium,
to enable the concerned District Insurance Officer, to issue policy within one
month.
10. Necessary amendments to the A.P.G.L.I. Fund Rules will be
issued separately.
11. This order came into force with effect from the date of issue
of the order and earlier settled cases need not be reopened.
12. Copy to this order is available on Internet and can be
