Leave Rules Prescribed by the UGC for Teachers of the Universities / Colleges.

The Commission vide its Notification dated 24 December, 1998 on revision of pay scales, minimum qualifications for the appointment of teachers in universities and colleges, and other measures for the maintenance of standards has laid down service conditions (including leave rules) for teachers. It may please be noted that while issuing this notification, it was expected that entire scheme of revision of pay scales, together with all the conditions attached to it, would be implemented as a composite scheme without any modifications.

It has now been brought to the notice of the UGC that some of the universities have not given effect to the Leave Rules prescribed by the UGC as an integral part of the revised pay scales. For implementation of the Leave Rules, it is necessary for the Universities to suitably amend the relevant statutes / ordinances / rules / regulations as may be required.  A copy of the Leave Rules is enclosed for your kind reference.

May I request you to kindly confirm if your university has implemented the prescribed leave rules. In case, your university is yet to implement the revised leave rules, you may please initiate action for its implementation forthwith. You may also advise the colleges affiliated to your university to follow the prescribed leave rules. I would appreciate if you could send me a status on the same. If you require any clarifications from us on this issue, please feel free to do so.
