Sir,
It is not clarified by the Ministry of Finance in their OM dated 16th September 2010 as to whether these guidelines are applicable to the non-entiled officials if they travel by private airlines for which separate orders already issued to regulate their LTC claims . Though the matter stands clarified vide DOP&T’s OM dated 11 Mar 2010, some government offices do not entertain claims on the basis of MOF’s OM dated 16 Sep 2010. Please clarify the position.

Sir,
My GP is 4200/- as such not entitled for Air Fare. I availed LTC in Dec’2010 and journey performed by private airlines. Claimed my entitled train fare. The bill returned by Regional pay and Accounts Officer, Kolkata that claim cannot be admitted in view of MOF OM dated 16.09.2010.
It is not clarified by MOF in their OM dated 16.09.2010 as to whether these guidelines are applicable to the non-entitled officials if they travel by private airlines. Though the matter stands clarified vide DOP&T’s OM dated 11 Mar 2010, the Regional Pay & Accounts Officer is not entertaining claims on the basis of MOF’s OM dated 16.09.2010. Please clarify.
I applied for LTC and got it sanctioned, then applied for advance against production of tickets and got 90% of the fare. I paid 100% to travel agent (putting 10% from my pocket). After that 16 Sept. OM came. Our office had a special permission to fly over private airlines over a particular sector before this OM. My office did not issue me any OM countering the earlier OM (sanctioning LTC), only the 16 September 2010 OM was circulated over LAN without any directives. After coming back office is not paying me remaining 10% balance and asking refunds of the amount paid to private airlines is it correct?
Sir,
i want to go to NE, please guid me last block of LTC is extended for more SIX month? if so, please give details.
