Action For Unauthorised Absence From Duty Or Overstayal of Leave
22. Following decision/action will be taken :-
(a) When a temporary Govt servant requests for leave in excess of limits prescribed
under Rule 32 of Central Civil Service (Leave) Rule 1972 under the exceptional
circumstances, the leave sanctioning authority can take a decision to grant further leave
in excess of the limits.
(b) When a temporary Govt servant applies for leave beyond the prescribed limit of
extraordinary leave and the leave sanctioning authority is not satisfied with the
genuineness of grounds on which further leave has been applied for, nor he considers the
grounds as exceptional, the leave cannot be granted. In this case the Govt servant should
be asked to rejoin duty within a specified date failing which he will render himself liable
for disciplinary action. Disobedience of orders would afford good and sufficient reasons
for initiating disciplinary action under CCA (CCA) Rules 1965. If he rejoins duty within
the specified date, he may be taken back into service and the period of absence not
covered by leave be treated as overstayal and dealt with in accordance with the orders for
regularisation of overstayal of leave.
