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.

Traveling abroad with the entire family is bound to elevate the social status of the employee among his friends and relatives.
