No allocation of pensionary liability between Department

(3) No allocation of pensionary liability between Department of Central Government. - The rules in regard to allocation or sharing of the liability on account of pensionary charges of Government servants with service under more than one Department among the Departments of the Government of India including Railways, Posts and Telegraphs and Defence Departments contained in Appendix 3-B-II and B-IV to Account Code, Volume I, have been under review of the Government of India for some time. After consideration of the various issues and keeping in view the need for simplifying inter-departmental adjustments it has been decided to dispense with the system of allocation of pension. The liability for pension including gratuity will be borne in full by the Department to which the Government servant permanently belongs at the time of retirement. No recovery of proportionate pension need be made from other Central Department under whom he had served. It has been decided to extend the above provisions to the Union Territory Governments with or without legislature. Accordingly, there will be no allocation of leave salary/pension contribution among Central Government departments including Railways, P & T, Defence and Union Territory Governments with or without legislature. Clarification. - The term pension may be treated as including interim/ad hoc relief on pension for the above purpose. [G.I., M.F., O.M.

No. S. 11031/1/78/TA/725, dated the 23rd February, 1979.] The above provision shall also cover cases of all Government servants (temporary/quasi-permanent/permanent), who have rendered technical resignation on their selection for service in another department (including Railways/P & T/Defence Departments) within the Government of India and hence the question of allocation of pension (or incidence of leave salary) between such Departments would not arise.
