Study leave only for under 50 yrs Himachal babus

Shimla: The Himachal Pradesh will soon not allow government employees above the age of 50 years to go on study leave .

This was stated in the state assembly Thursday by chief minister Virbhadra Singh in reply to a question.

He said the government will soon change the rules in this connection.

During study leave employees also get their salary and other perks. They also retain their seniority.
