Explanatory Note

(This is not form part of the notification, but is intended to indicate its general purport.)

In the Kerala Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1960the minimum and maximum period for permanent withholding of increments has not been specified.  In memorandum number 46162 /SD4/65/PD dated 5-5-1965, Government had specified that non-mention of a maximum and minimum period for permanent withholding of increment in the Rules is lacuna needing rectification.  Hence it is necessary to indicate the minimum and maximum period for which the penalty of permanent withholding of increment is to be in force.

This notification is intended to achieve the above object.
