ordered, among other things, that in the cases of ‘A’ and ‘B’ group officials, if the

occasions of their attendance on holidays become so regular as to make it almost a

matter of routine, they would be eligible to claim compensatory holidays.

I am, therefore, to request that the above orders may be brought to the notice of the officer’s under your control and they may be instructed to follow these orders strictly without any room for complaints. A copy of the instructions issued in this regard may be sent to Government for information, in due course.

Yours faithfully,
