I am directed to refer to the subject cited above and to state that in the 7th meeting of the Special Selection Board (SSB) for Deputation Abroad held on 16.06.2016, it was observed that as per Rule 15 of the Punjab Civil Servants (Appointment & Conditions of Service) Rules, 1974, maximum period of deputation abroad of a civil servant is ordinarily three years which may be extended up to two years on the request of the civil servant or his employer on the sole discretion of the Government. The Board observed that those who have already availed 05 years deputation abroad, there is no legal and moral ground available for them to consider their requests for further extension in deputation. As such, overstay is provenly willful absence from duty necessitating disciplinary action under the Punjab Employees Efficiency, Discipline and Accountability, Act 2006. The competent authority has, therefore, desired that all cases regarding Overstay in deputation abroad may be checked and necessary action may be taken under the disciplinary law, where it is so warranted
2. These instructions may kindly be brought to the notice of all concerned for strict compliance.
