MEMORANDUM
Subject: Requirement of taking prior permission for leaving
station/headquarters
for going abroad while on leave.
Undersigned is directed to refer to
the Office Memoranda mentioned in the
margin and to say that as per the
existing instructions, when Government servant
applies for leave for going abroad
on a private visit, separately prior permission of
the Competent authority for such
visit is also required. While granting such
permission, many factors are
required to be kept in view. For example, permission
may be denied in the interest of
security. Individuals facing investigation/inquiry
on serious charges, who may try to
evade apprehension by police authorities, or
facing the inquiry, may also not be
permitted to leave the country. On the other
hand, it is also desirable that
requests of Government servants for such permission
are dealt with expeditiously.
2. Keeping the above in view, it
has been decided that requests for permission
for private visits abroad may be
processed in the attached formats. As clarified
vide the OM dated rt September,
2008, the competent authority for granting
permission will be as per
instructions issued by the Cadre Authority/administrative
Ministry/Department. In the absence
of any such instructions, it is the leave
sanctioning authority. In case due
to specific nature of work in a Department,
administrative exigencies, or some
adverse factors against the Government servant
etc., it is not expedient to grant
permission to the Govertunent servant, such
decision for refusal should not be
taken below the level of Head of Department. It
may be ensured that the decisions
are conveyed to the Government servants within
15 days of receipt of complete
application. Any lacunae in the application should
be brought to the notice of the
Government servant within one week of the receipt
of the application.
3. If in case some modifications are
considered necessary due to specialised
nature of work handled by any
organisation, changes may be made with the
approval of this Department.
