following periods do not qualify for pension.
(i) Boy Service (Service rendered before attaining the age of 18 years.)
(ii) Extraordinary leave without medical certificate.

time scale in State Government department, followed without interruption in the same or
any other service or post under the Government. It should be paid from the consolidated

orders/approval of the State Government is treated as qualifying for pension. The amount
of pension contribution @ 12% of the maximum of the scale of the post, is however
payable by the Borrowing organization through Directorate of Pension and Pensioners’
Welfare to the Government of Rajasthan.

Government of Rajasthan’s Decision.
According to ‘Proviso’ below Rule 31 (b) (ii) of Rajasthan Service Rules [inserted
vide Finance Department Notification No. F. 1 (71) FD (Exp.-Rules)66, dated 28-10-1966],
extraordinary leave in individual cases is allowed to count for increment, if such leave is
availed of for any of the reasons specified in clause (i) or (ii) of the said rule.
It has been observed that such cases are referred to Finance Department long after
the leave is sanctioned. The matter has been considered and it has been decided that the
authority competent to sanction leave while sanctioning extraordinary leave should also
decide at the same time and not later, whether such period of leave should count for
increment and specific recommendation to that effect should be made simultaneously to
Government in the Administrative Department which will take decision with approval of
Finance Department.
Recommendations for period of Extraordinary leave granted in future counting for increment
will not be entertained by the Department, if it was not made simultaneously while granting
leave.
