Leave can not be claimed as of right

 Leave can not be claimed as of right


Rule 153

(1) Leave cannot be claimed as of right. When the exigencies of the public service so require, discretion to refuse or revoke leave of any description is reserved to the authority empowered to grant it.


**(2) A Government employee's claim to leave is regulated by the rules in force at the time the leave is applied for and granted. Note:


1. An authority competent to grant leave may refuse to grant the full amount of leave applied for in any case and should, by the exercise of this power, so regulate the date of a Government employee's return from leave as to cause as little change as possible in administrative arrangements.


2. Leave of any description should not be granted to an extent which would unduly deplete the strength of a service or department available for active duty. Consequently, when the duty strength has been reduced to a point which in the opinion of the leave sanctioning authority is for the time being an essential minimum, no further leave of any description will be given save in case of the most absolute necessity, such as sickness or most urgent private affairs, until the strength available for duty has increased. In applying this principles, special consideration may be given to the case of Government employees who applied for leave in India, for as they can be readily recalled, if necessary, they stand on a different footing from Government employees, who are out of convenient reach.


3. Applications for leave by Government employees likely to revert from higher pay should always be scrutinised with special jealousy, and the leave should be granted only when very cogent reason are adduced. It is not the intention of Government, however, that leave in ordinary circumstances should be granted more sparingly, the general principle being that a Government employee need not be debarred from taking the leave which he has earned at such times and for such periods as may suit the exigencies of the public service.
