In the event of failure on the part of the competent authority to communicate its decision to the Government employee concerned within the time-limits indicated above, the employee concerned shall be free to assume that permission has been granted to him.
3. These instructions may be brought to the notice of all authorities exercising powers under the various provisions of the Central Civil Services (Conduct) Rules, 1964 and they may be advised to ensure that all requests of Government servants under the aforesaid rules are dealt with expeditiously so that no occasion arises where a Government servant may be enabled to action the assumption that permission has been granted in his case on account of the failure of the competent authority to convey its decision within the stipulated time.

(2) Emigration of Central Government Servants to other Countries
References are received from Ministries/Departments seeking clarifications regarding grant of ‘No Objection Certificate’ to Government employees for seeking emigration to foreign countries. The matter has been considered carefully and it has been decided that no Government servant should apply for or seek emigration to any other country so long as he is in Government service. The question of issuing ‘No Objection Certificate’ to a Government servant, who wishes to migrate to a foreign country, therefore, does not arise.

(3) Court orders against Government of India instructions on service matters – consultation with Ministry of Law and DoP&T on the question of filing appeals, before implementation of Court’s orders
It has come to the notice of this department that in cases where the Courts have passed orders against the Government of India instructions, the administrative Ministry/Department has not consulted the Law Ministry on the question of filing appeal against such orders, before implementation of such orders.
2. The matter has been considered in this Department and it has been decided that whenever there is any Court order against the Government of India instructions on service matters, the administrative Ministry/Department/Office shall consult the Department of Legal Affairs and the Department of Personnel and Training n the question of filing appeal against such an order, as far as possible, well in time, that is before the time limit, if any, prescribed in such order or before the time limit for filing appeal. No such orders shall be implemented by the concerned Departments/Ministries without first referring the matter to the Department of Legal Affairs for advice and to Department of Personnel and Training.
