Central
Government Employees’ LTC Likely to Cover Foreign Countries
Leave Travel Concession for
Central Government employees is likely to be extended to cover trips to foreign
countries too. Although these are unconfirmed reports, we are sharing the news
reports that have appeared in leading English newspapers recently.
Traveling abroad is a dream
for most Indian families. The Centre’s attempts to fulfill this dream are worth
appreciating. Although initially the scheme covers only four countries (Bhutan,
Nepal, Maldives and Sri Lanka), traveling to a foreign country, with the
expenses paid by the Government, is no small accomplishment. Traveling abroad
with the entire family is bound to elevate the social status of the employee
among his friends and relatives.
